P!P Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Yeah, I think this is a major bug. That is what happened to me. To fix it, this is what I did, although it ended up not working for me, it might on other computers. Insert the Windows XP Disk Boot the CD and enter the Recovery Console Get to the prompt, type "expand (CD DRIVE):\i386\NTOSKERNEL.EX_ c:\windows\system32" Doing that will replace the deleted file, it that doesn't work, do an in-place install. You won't lose any data. Although, Windows, if your like my computer, will be a little messed up.

Windows X Posted February 8, 2005 Author Share Posted February 8, 2005 unisol, you can. About boot screen problem, make sure your OS is runing in stable status. Reshacker.exe needs quite lots pf RAM or something to process patches.

Boxster17 Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 I was installing LTP9, and it damaged some files so I repaired XP, although it's still loaded some LTP9 files, and I was wondering how I can uninstall it. Everytime I try, it says that some msicons.dll has changed or something, and try restarting the patch in Safe Mode. Then in safe mode i still can't get rid of it. How would I go about removing it?

Windows X Posted February 12, 2005 Author Share Posted February 12, 2005 Actually, it's rare cases about replacing system files. There's no perfect way to make it done on every PC.

But that is just my opinion. 585440876[/snapback] Good advice, I did try to install it awhile back though on my hp :p but it didn't work :no: , I got this message: Longhorn Transformation Pack has detected that there's any Windows NT setup file in c:\ It's not recommend you to continue with this. Please eject your Windows NT CD or move that folder to somewhere else. Press OK to exit Longhorn Transformation Pack. Just want to know, why is it saying that? This computer shipped with windows xp home and has never been touched with NT. I had to copy the visual styles off another computer and then use Style Xp on this computer to view them but meh, I only like the visual styles so no problems. - Barret Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/75768-longhorn-transformation-pack/page/53/#findComment-585488595 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windows X Posted February 18, 2005 Author Share Posted February 18, 2005 It means there's installation files in C:\. Rename C:\i386 folder, restart and try again.

Windows X Posted February 28, 2005 Author Share Posted February 28, 2005 That's only way to prevent losing original files. Make sure you've uninstalled before installing any update.

Raditz Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 damn it! I can't download such a big file with my slow connection. Why don't you give me links to to individual vs? If it's not too much bother. A Preview for the vs's would be ok too.
