Sweet.. I have a Motorola IC502... I'll try to test this weekend to see if it picks it up. (been needing to ad stuff back to my phone, since it was replaced)

Sounds very cool, I'll have to check it out.
...I've seen something like this before, where the pre-setup had checkmarks of what DP's to use...
I'll have to remember where I seen it @.... yikes

XP etc. is not like Linux, it is not Public Domain. Microsoft OWNS XP etc.

to add to that... you are "LEASING" the copy of windows... it is NOT yours!
Microsoft still owns windows and if your read the licensing agreement... they can take it back at any time as well... kinda like a crude repo man =P

I've never had any mouse issue in VMware, however, we do not promote nor condone warez.

disable your download managers.

@twig123 look in the pack and you will find a txt file or a change log file in each of the packs you asked about.

txt files/changelogs don't seem to match dates/pack versions...

That's why we would rather have that a tested third party DP gets a proper RELEASE topic by the creator.

My thoughts exactly smile

right click and copy link, class by date to see the most recent.

Yes, I am well aware of this link, however, the packs that I stated do not have a posts that I can find stating that the pack was being released, nor a changelog with the current changes... correct me if I'm wrong. But IMO, I don't like linking to 'unknown' packs that just appear on the server wink

thanks for the link.

Corrected both Monitor & Modem links.
However, HP Printer, SmartCard and Misc all have been upped to the server.. and again need changelog info as I was unable to quickly find any.

I corrected the modem link.
It looks as though someone has uploaded another Modem pack and moved the old one, however did not provide a changelog for the new pack (v7.11.20) Whoever upped this file please provide a changelog so we can link to the file if needed.

Thanks

IDK you tell me...
dvds cost money you mean at 20 cents each that would break your budget? and a dvdrom is $10?
sounds like you need to stop working for free... wink

It just might... :-\
Going through a rough patch at the moment... been livin on Ramon noodles and haven't paid bills in 1 1/2 months so that I could get xmas gifts and not feel totally ashamed... but that is nobody's issue here...

I poke around rougespear's forum and see if I can come up with something.. and I know everyone is quite taxed out with other projects.

It's OK.. I'm only confusing myself too...

is there anyway to PXE boot... and then install windows from an ISO image?

Basically I'm pretty diverse. Sometimes I will be loading several system at once... While others only one at a time. CD's/DVD's cost $$ and can get lost/damaged quite frequently (and I don't happen to be a computer shop... so spare hardware is slim to come by). Anyways what I'm saying is that if there is an option that would allow me to make one windows image that could be installed from the network as well as a CD (without altering the code every time I decide to switch source)... that would be Ideal, however I don't know if that it is possible to somehow PXE boot and then mount/install from an ISO...

I will look in to that. Thanks

however... I was interesting in making any system install/run Python, BINL, TFTP32 as well as a network share from. this would be nice instead of taking a laptop with me everywhere... and also handy if the system doesn't support booting from USB...

maybewe can test standard PXE boot with these drivers as well... but only the future knows tongue

I'm testing some LAN installs via PXE Network share instead of RIS... maybe this will help me in my endeavors... I will take a look

I don't understand the issue here...
They are not selling the drivers them self... But rather are selling a membership to their service...

There are no legal issues with that (unless they provide a Copywriten driver... which I've only seen 1 or 2 out of the thousands of hardware devices).

Anybody know how I would make this entire setup portable?
Like... I know you can use a U3 Flash drive to run some apps directly from the flash drive... is there anyway to convert all these needed apps to run directly from the U3 drive so I can have my TFTP PXE boot server available on any system I goto??

Yesterday, I Xperimented a path.
Sad story.. I was down to 4200 in the path, and a raging storm blew my file away.
I got a brownout, and lost work.
(or a spike? who cares.. it was lost.)
I need a good UPs.

Sorry for the setback man... that isn't cool.
UPS's are great, unless you are me...
lol, for 2 years I had my "Big Blue" monster of a PC plugged into my UPS. When power went out.. my Monitor would stay on, but my PC would shut off (I figured that it was a beast and was just taking all of the power.) Anyways, 2 years after getting my UPS I moved... then when hooking my system back up... I was like *DOH* ... only half of the unit was UPS, the other half was just Surge *sigh* you gotta laugh about some things like that though tongue

I've been recently playing around with a PXE boot with TFTP and have been looking for this thread for a while, I as well lost my favorites link... Thanks for the info.

Found a way to do it: http://www.pearlmagik.com/winbolic/

I'm assuming this makes use of the 'linkd' command available in windows (if the linkd file is extracted)
