<0> Cheney is an idiot
<1> so true about cheney
<0> i'm just sick of DINOs, these ppl like Lieberman and Clinton
<0> dems need to get teeth
<2> he's calm n collected..he knows how to convince people of things and i think that's a good thing on the demo side
<0> seeing Pat Laehy chewing out Alberto Gonzalez the other day was nice
<1> the dems are too bust just trying to stop bush from excalating the war
<1> escalating
<0> desolate: i voted for Clinton, but there's still **** he did that pisses me off
<2> _mre|29a: everyone you vote for is gonna do **** that pisses you off
<0> but he makes Bush look like a crackhead
<2> you just have to outweigh the good with bad
<0> yeah, true true
<0> i do hold NAFTA against him tho
<2> how did you guys like Howard Dean?
<2> BYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
<2> lol
<3> What could give me a hal.dll error if I replaced hal.dll with a brand spanking new one
<0> these freetrade agreements are hurting working ppl in this country
<0> and these ***holes that push them through should be held responsible
<2> Jemeni: did you read what i said?
<0> i think it's kinda funny how H. Clinton is distanceing herself from Wal Mart
<0> who's board of directors she was on for many many years
<0> and who's working hand in fist with the Bushies to do away with inheritance taxes
<0> and who also doesn't support American Made products anymore, like they did in the 80s
<1> doing away with inheritance taxes is a good thing
<0> and no exclusively has all their garments and items made in china
<0> compdoc: i disagree
<0> you want paris hilton to get a tax cut?
<3> Desolate: Sorry I missed it, just read up. When booting I get the WinXP boot choice menu. I am selecting the one it is supposed to go to, and boot.ini is pointing to the correct drive and partition
<0> personally i don't think the bitch deserves it
<0> jemeni: and?
<2> Jemeni: I don't believe the boot.ini has anything to do with the BIOS settings, I believe
<0> doesn't boot?
<2> Jemeni: The boot.ini tells windows which os to boot
<0> could be a bad bootsector
<2> jemeni: do you have only one hard drive?
<3> I have 3, 2 of which have WinXP on them
<2> jemeni: you need to tell BIOS which one should boot up first.
<2> Jemeni: if it turns on the one without xp first. it will give you that error
<3> I told BIOS to boot to my primary HDD then the secondary HDD. It was booting fine to both installs before I installed the video drivers
<0> w00
<0> fighting on Jerry
<0> jemeni: why are you dualbooting?
<0> why 2 oses on 2 different drives on 1 computer?
<0> same 2 oses at that
<3> I want a very clean, minimal install of WinXP to run my games on. I am starting Vanguard SoH when it comes out this weekend, so I want as small of a footprint from WinXP as I can manage
<2> why didn't you just install all the games on the other hard drive?
<2> lol
<2> or your programs
<2> vice versa
<3> That still wont give me a small OS footprint
<3> I wanted an OS with just the bare minimum installed. No extra fancy graphics, no extra drivers, nothing.
<4> if you have a legal version of xp, then their light weight versions of xp on bit torrent
<2> Jemeni: when you said you set the bios to primary then secondary, you did it inside the bootup list right?
<5> shidamn....gov stop paying me:(
<5> owell
<1> well, no one ever needs extra drivers - you install the drivers the hardware needs
<3> I made a lite version of WinXP (It's a legal copy) using nLite
<6> i did also.. but i alwasy get a error messegeing poping up asking if i want to replace certain files that do not match .. soemthing along those lines... you get that Jemeni ??
<3> Desolate: Correct, I did that in BIOS setup menu. They were booting just fine before the new driver install
<6> mostly when i install a new program or hardware
<3> Kosh|Away: No, took out the program that checks for signed drivers
<6> AHHHHhhh... i knew it was something.
<3> Right now my WinXP install is at 174MBs
<0> aww... ok
<0> makes sense
<0> that's small
<0> normally it's about 500-700megs
<3> last time I was able to boot to it *grin* it was using 74MBs RAM
<0> base
<0> i've seen it upwards to 1.4gigs
<3> I zeroed out all cab files and anything else I didnt need that the OS would look for
<3> But I'll be damned if this hal.dll doesnt have me stumped ;)
<0> Vista is bloated to hell
<0> you think XP is bloated
<0> vista takes up like 4-6gigs of space
<0> just base os
<3> nLite aleady has a beta out for vLite
<6> i would ask you if you could upload it to my ftp but i just changed ISPs and its not setup.... Jemeni,, would you think about uploading it to yousendit.com if oyu get a chance ??
<0> [N] cannot join channel #transformers (banned)
<0> hehe
<3> Sure, once I can get it working fully with 0 problems
<3> As it stands, I will have to say this is not a working release ;) I got it down to 174 with SP2 and all 2006 hotfixes integrated, as well as DX9.0c, WGA and Firefox 2.0.1 integrated
<3> It takes roughly 10m for the entire unattended install.
<1> I got an email yesterday from a supplier with Vista prices - says its available now
<3> This install would not work on a laptop :) I took all those drivers out
<6> i see
<3> I saw that Vista Ultimate will be $400!
<0> i got Vista 32bit Business Upgrade for $7
<0> heh
<0> came with my laptop, the option to get the upgradwe
<0> have to pay the shipping tho
<3> can I get to fixboot without going to RC?
<0> jemeni: $400 for a "membership"
<0> according to M$ you don't even own the os
<5> http://me.rrc.mb.ca/Catalogue/ProgramFrame.asp?ProgCode=ABN <<< someone explain me wtf this translates to?
<0> you're just "licenseing it"
<0> that way they can go after ppl pirateing it alot harder
<6> i dont see the sense. atm... buy a "fast machine" and put vista on it and slow it down. or put xp on it and have it run faster ... xp imo
<3> nosun: means you have a degree of nothing
<5> exactl
<5> exactly*
<2> nosun: sounds like bull****
<0> well... if M$ ever figured out the difference between a beta, a alpha and a release it would be nicer
<3> Grr I really dont want to go to RC
<0> but of course they want it get it out as fast as possible
<0> even if it's bloated hell
<5> this pisses me off theres like only 2-3 computer related cl***es in red river college
<5> and they all **** arse
<0> vista = forced obscalesence
<6> ill grab my dictionary.. one moment
<5> the only one truelly worth taking possibly is Computer Programmer/Analyst
<5> and god knows it can't be good:P
<0> 75% of computers on the market, at this moment, won't be able to handle vista
<0> Kosh|Away: i spelt it wrong
<0> i know i did
<0> in a year, ppl will be ditching comps left and right, to get "vista ready" systems
<2> lol
<2> i guess i gotta get a new mobo for that supposed prefetch ****
<6> hopefully i will be picking up the ditched computers :)
<0> i'm getting this Vista upgrade, but i won't install it
<0> until well after the 1st sp
<2> supposed to be on a flash chip
<2> to speed up boots
<2> or something
<6> i didnt think you spelled it wrong. i thought i didnt know the word
<0> well...
<0> MS has been giving these big gifts to their "MS Partners"
<0> starting with GPA
<0> now with Vista ready pcs
<0> it's just ridiculous
<0> they get XP ironed out and working
<0> i mean, how ****in long did that take?
<0> years
<0> M$ isn't happy unless they're screwing somebody
<3> ok, tried fixboot, wish me luck, bbs
<5> Micro$crew
<6> my boss jsut walked in and said he wants to start a second business, and he wants me to run it.
<6> thats sounds like a raise in the near future to me
<5> lol
<5> I want to start a second business...
<5> any Idea's what my first should be?
<5> ;)
<3> Heh - Looks like back to working on my unattended install. I deleted a little too much this time ;D Got past the hal.dll but got about 7 more errors
<6> well seing that he just drove off in a his bently.. i think his 2nd will be ok too
<6> i should of keyed it
<5> Jemeni you trying to shrink win xp?
<5> your best off going pre SP2
<3> Yeah
