Starcom826 Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 Wasn't there something about SP2 limiting the amount of TCP connections you can make? Is that still in the final?

kuruptnation Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 I dont know if this has been asked. Sorry if it has. But I just updated to sp2, and I've patched uxtheme.dll. Ive tried several different methods but none seem to do the trick. See the problem is now that I patched it, everything is skinned except for the taskbar. And I have version 2180 :( Im about to pull my hair out! Not to mention windows looks ugly being only half skinned :cry: If anyone has an idea about what I should do it would be greatly appreciated :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/75970-the-sp2-thread-reloaded/page/53/#findComment-584332257 Share on other sites More sharing options...

kuruptnation Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 I got it from the link on the front page. I tried using replacer, and manually renaming and copying uxtheme to ServicePackFiles\i386 and System32\dllcache\ also system32. I did it in safe mode and while in normal mode with explorer killed. I just cant figure it out. Never had a problem like this while editing files :blink: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/75970-the-sp2-thread-reloaded/page/53/#findComment-584332440 Share on other sites More sharing options...

gxsaurav Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 I m confused that can slipstreaming provide a problem in the future when installing any update like IE Cumulative patches, just because I have installed a Slipstreamed Windows installation not the regular way of installaing XP first then SP2 I want to slipstream because I think if I do that then the folder of about 400 MB names servicepackfiles in my C:Windows folder will not be made as it is made when SP2 in installed seperately but rite now I have Windows Installation with SP2 integrated, is it true, will slipstreaming not make this folder in c:windows After installing windows from this slipstreamed CD I will further use nlite to remove more components Also the bin file given in the guide is only 2 KB (2,048 bytes) is it true, m i getting the right file size, also nero doesn't recognices the .bin files when I browse , it looks for img files, will selecting .bin files as given in the guide pose any problem Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/75970-the-sp2-thread-reloaded/page/53/#findComment-584333318 Share on other sites More sharing options...

krak Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 I read somewhere that the cause of the taskbar bug is putting the uxtheme in C:\Windows as well as C:\Windows\system32 I'd take it out of dllcache too. Just use replacer so you dont have to mess around in safe mode and make sure its only in system32.

idvdo Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 I get - Biosinfo.inf is missing or corrupt error message when upgrading to SP2. I have installed SP2 RTM from the official MS link over WinXP Pro, the installation finished successfully, but when I was asked for rebooting, the computer didn't load Windows - saying: "Biosinfo.inf is missing or corrupt". I can't start in safe mode too Please help me, thanks Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/75970-the-sp2-thread-reloaded/page/53/#findComment-584334146 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doombringer Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 That link about Norton and SP2 was for enterprise users. Anyone with the home editions should check here: http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgen...&src=ivr_na_con or here, when it is online: http://service.symantec.com/xpinfo Supposedly the update will come down through your LiveUpdate.

I was reading on of the threads here and it said to put it in windows. I didnt know why because Ive never done that before. But thought I needed to with sp2, well I guess not. If anyone else is having the taskbar not being skinned just kill explorer and delete uxtheme out of C:/windows :woot: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/75970-the-sp2-thread-reloaded/page/53/#findComment-584335753 Share on other sites More sharing options...
