Also I haven't tried yet since I haven't tried RC1 yet but try running it in compatibility mode.

Guys. You don't have to know *anything* to get into anyone's box. Heck there are guides and programs now that tell you what to do to get into someone's box. One program off the top of my head can list all of your local admin accounts and categorizes the different things that are open and it's FREEWARE! If someone's angry at you. In 1 HOUR using www.google.com they can have everything they need to screw you over. It's that simple.

Nah, Remember Half-Life was released in 98 just before 2000 came out. Half-life runs in NT4 so it only knew about NT4 at that time. The outdated code is looking for SP3 in NT4. Since NT5 is extremly close to NT4 code that's why ya get the error.

Yes you will still need the Whistler Application Compatibility Toolkit in Whistler. Whistler will have the same problems that 2000 does.

I don't see where you would find that impression. It was a fine place to help out the newbies and kick back and post some stuff in the Lounge. It was hardly an Ars/Ntcompatible/Tweakfiles where the goal was to share information/fix nt/tweak your system. 3Dfiles main goal was to brag about your systems and improve them. Basically it didn't take itself as seriously as most sites which added to the appeal. Ah, well dunno why Tim closed it. I saw something briefly about his servers being overloaded and how he was getting tired of it all but it still seems strange that he would kill his site so suddenly and so swiftly after so many years. Weird......

The pics are fake. Look at 'em and think. Some mistakes are pretty obvious and some are not.

WTF. It was fine 2 days ago with no sign of going down. Hmmm, guess I'd better email Qwerty.

DOH! WRONG ONE. DON'T LOOK IN HEREEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

I think you've summed it up pretty nicely.

Is "XP" after each Topic necessary? Kinda redundant.

Hmmmm, same here.....with my Sblive!

Yep, IE5.5 in ME is older.

When it's done.

%windir%\profiles

%userprofile%

Weird..... This is like the most common question I see asked.

Port 5000 is used for TCP/UDP. I'm not up on the web serving in XP.....

Use Tweakui/X-setup to configure auto-login.

Yes. But why do you want to corrupt your data further?

www.freedrive.com login: ntcompatible1 pass: ntcompatible1 Download the .msi file and apphelp.zip 1. Go into C:\winnt and make a backup of the APPPATCH directory. 2. Extract the contents of apphelp.zip into the APPPATCH directory. 3. Run the .MSI file and install it. If anyone can give me the updated files from the latest Whistler beta so I can update the .zip I would be grateful!

ah, go do something with yourself!
