Longhorn Transformation Pack

[itsnotabigtruck]

LOL OMG someone look at moricons.dll in the extracted pack, version # is 6.0.3683.  Longhorn DLL in XP, GOOD JOB :p  :laugh:

Actually, believe it or not some standard Windows XP DLLs are version 6.0. Example: shell32.dll. It's just the Windows XP version with some of the bitmaps hacked so they say "Longhorn Professional". :(

Edit: Oops, moricons.dll in Windows XP SP1 is 5.1.2600.1106. Hmm. :rolleyes:

bug?

I'll said for once if you didn't read this.

Longhorn Transformation Pack Functions:

-This program can choose Longhorn type for each section like Start flag, Progress dialog login and ToolBar. There's Aero, M4, M6, PDC or Don't change it

-This program can customize additional installation like Longhorn SideBar and Aero ToolBar type

-This program can check Themes services to let user enable or disable this Themes.

-This program can detect setup files before run program to avoid system file replace problems

-This program can use on Windows XP build 2600 or build 2600 with SP1 build 1106 and Windows Server 2003 build 3790

-This program can test sharing violation to avoid system file replace problems

-This program will apply Plex Style with new taskbar and Longhorn screensaver after restart. You can change it yourself and choose other Plex themes and wallpapers

-This program is not recommended for multi-language edition of XP. (However, you can use it)

-This program can use rollback function by run setup again after restart (get previous OS files)

Did you guys read this in my pack? You can use "Don't change it" for all option to keep your own system files. And this pack support Windows XP build 2600 or build 2600 with SP1 build 1106 and Windows Server 2003 build 3790

everytime i try to install it from "C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents"

this little window pops up and says " Longhorn Transformation Pack had detected that System files have been found in C:// please click ok to exit"

how do i get around that error??

[itsnotabigtruck]

You might have a folder called i386 in your C:\ drive. It contains most of what you need to install Windows.

Start > Run > cmd > OK

cd \

rmdir /S /Q I386

exit

[Dane]

what does that do? will that remove the folder or just do something else? if it removes it will my PC still work?

[Dane]

Ummm yeah i installed only one thing with it the Theme only. now every time i restart it take f***ing forever to get to my desk top and and when its the default Windows XP Login it it hangs at welcome but everything loads in the background and it i hit Ctrl Alt and delete it take me to my desktop :angry: :angry: WTF!!!!?????

[Dane]

I installed this pack and uninstalled it. Afterwards, I kept getting Windows File Protection errors. Following the advice of someone in the Windows File Protection thread, I ran the UXTheme Multi-Patcher. Now I am missing "Windows XP.theme" from the c:\windows\Resources directory. Basically, I have lost the whole Windows XP flavor from XP. Anyone know how I can fix this? Someone wanna send me "Windows XP.theme"? Thanks.

I posted it for you over in the WFP thread. :)

Note: if you are missing the Luna theme (in the Appearance tab of Display Properties), PM me your e-mail address and I'll e-mail you Luna.

Thanks man. I had the file. I finally figured out that the Themes service had been disabled somehow. No idea how that happened... Enabled it and everything is back to normal... Whew.

This would be cool: Finding a way to automate DrvIco to assign the Windows-logo-on-top-of-drive icon from Longhorn to your Windows drive in the LTP. Here is what My Computer now looks like after using DrvIco to assign the Longhorn Windows drive icon to my C:\ drive:

[Dane]

So much for that, I just got done using my Windows XP Restore disk because a Safe Restore did not work!! :angry: so now i have to download everything again!! but this is where i say it was my fault somehow and i am making a new stand to never f*** with themes,logons,boot screens, anything if its not there by default i'm not doing it yet. :angry:

[jkinzer]

Yeah. This messed up my computer, too. It looked promising though. :)

[AlexMagik]

WindowsX, great job with this refresh! Installed without any problems. Unfortunately, the Longhorn sidebar does not show up! Anyone with this problem?

[Windows X]

JonathanVP, if you read trouble shooting, you can solve it by change wallpaper.
