Vista will not boot after I disabled DCOMLauncher service
The Problem: Windows Vista will not start with normal settings or in Safe Mode. To be more precise, after Vista boots, there is only a black screen and limited mouse functionality.
The Background & Cause of Problem: I use Windows Vista Home Premium SP 2. I disabled the DCOMLauncher Service using Sysinternal's Autoruns program.
What I've attempted: I have attempted to start Vista in Safe Mode with no results.
Thank you to all who try to help me.

Where you choose Safe Mode choose Last Known Good Boot.
As long as your subsequent boots are deemed unsucessful,which may not be the case, this will boot the configuration before using Autoruns.
Also does Safe Mode Command Prompt work?

Authenticated SMTP Connection and SCL
Reply:
Check the internet headers of a mesage that ends up in Junk Mail - specifically the ones that start with:
X-MS-Exchange-Organization
What do they show?
------------------------------------
Reply:
This is what I get for e-mail from my Domino environment. It doesn't matter if they are in Junk or not. The X-MS-Exchange-Organization headers are the same. These e-mails are being submitted to a hub transport server that isn't running the Anti-spam agents. I can check the SMTP Receive logs on the hub transport server and see that the connection is authenticated. Does authentication make a difference if you're not running the Anti-Spam agents? We're only running the Anti-Spam agents on our edge transport servers.
X-MS-Exchange-Organization-AuthSource: hubtransportservername
X-MS-Exchange-Organization-AuthAs: Internal
X-MS-Exchange-Organization-AuthMechanism: 07

It will make a difference if the AS agents are installed. I remember coming across a article/blod. What happens is that the email will be marked with an scl of -1 once the AS agents have been installed & IP allow list has been made. Will try & find.
BTW what scl rating does it show on the message?

So, it sounds like I'm either going to have to go the route of installing the AS agents on my hub transport servers or create a hub transport rule. So, it seems that there is no point in authenticating the SMTP session when sending these e-mails from Domino to Exchange.
The hub transport rule is a good option actually. I use that and it works grand. The key is to ensure that the messages you assign the -1 (typically based on the FROM domain), are truly trusted since you are forcing that -1 SCL .
In other words, if the messages from the Domino apps have a unique FROM SMTP Domain Address, one that wouldnt come from the internet, you can apply the -1 SCL rule with confidence knowing that that SMTP domain wont be spoofed from the internet. Make sense?

The new Task Manager is stressing me like crazy
Microsoft, you have NOT fixed all the issues I pointed out in Task Manager. And you have removed the old Task Manager which was present in Consumer Preview and Developer Preview. I HATE THE NEW TASK MANAGER. IT'S SIMPLY HORRIBLE:
Current list of issues with the Windows 8 Task Manager:
- Performance: It is not as responsive and quick to load as the old Task manager. Certainly not, when some app is consuming CPU or causing Windows to hang.
- Bug: Last active tab is not remembered. The old Task Manager remembered the last active tab. I DO NOT WANT TO LAND ON THE PROCESSES TAB. I want to the last active tab to be remembered.
- Removed feature: There is no global status bar showing the total number of processes, CPU usage and physical memory and/or commit charge.
- Removed feature: See this image. Which document is which? The old Task Manager showed the application name from the Title bar. The new one gets its name from somewhere else. The document name is only shown after expanding by each and every instance of the app by clicking the arrow/triangle one by one. Why do you want to make our lives more difficult? Suppose there are 10 windows of an app open and 1 of them stops responding. With the old Task Manager, it was one glance away. With the new one, I must expand the arrow of each window to see if the not responding document is under one of those. Poor usability. Documents names must be shown without making users expand and collapse every instance of the app. This also breaks keyboard usability. In the above screenshot, I could hit L to go through List1.txt, List2.txt, List3.txt. Not possible any more. There is an "Expand all" option but it's state is reset every time Task Manager is closed. It goes back to Group By Type.
- No default beep/Ding sound on the Processes tab if I press a key and there is no process or app beginning with that name.
- Unnecessary requirement: New Task Manager requires UAC elevation if UAC level is set to highest. Old Task Manager ran just fine without elevation to show current user processes.
- Bug/keyboard usability issue: Ctrl+ '+' (Ctrl + plus key) key to auto-resize all columns to fit does not work on Processes, App History,
Startup and Users tabs.
- Removed feature: The options for the Networking tab "Show cumulative data" and "Reset adapter history" are removed.
- Limitation: Any column cannot be set as the first column on Processes, App History, Startup and Users tab as it can be in Details and Services tab. This affects keyboard usability too.
- Removed feature: Selection of multiple applications on the Processes tab (formerly Applications tab) is not possible. In the old Task manager, I could use Ctrl and Shift keys just like Windows Explorer to select multiple applications and do actions like group End Task them.
- Design flaw/regression: Naming and order of tabs is not the same and "re-imagined" according to stupid telemetry. Whatever happened to common sense that UI changes should not be made for sake of change? What was previously the 'Applications' tab is now the 'Processes' tab. Unfortunately, there was also a 'Processes' tab in the old Task Manager which is now the 'Details' tab. Very confusing for those who have used the Task Manager for years. In old Task Manager, the order of tabs is Applications, Processes, Services, Performance, Networking and Users.
In the new Task manager, it is Processes, Performance, App History, Startup, Users, Details and Services. The correct order should be Processes, Details, Services, Performance, App History (because this is a new tab), Startup (also a new tab), and Users as the last tab.
- The Startup tab replaces MSConfig but the tab only shows the "Startup type" as "Registry" or "Folder", whereas MSConfig showed the exact registry key (HKLM Run or HKCU Run) from where the app started. Perfect dumbing down example.
- Removed feature: Window management functions (Minimize, Maximize, Cascade, Tile Horizontally and Tile Vertically) on the Processes tab (formerly the Applications tab) and "Windows" menu are removed. Why are these important? Because in Windows 7, the Taskbar removed the ability to select multiple taskbar buttons using Ctrl+left click when buttons are ungrouped and therefore group actions on window buttons in the taskbar are no longer possible. The Task Manager's Applications tab offered an alternative and now they have taken that away as well. I can no longer maximize for example 4 IE windows at once.
- Regression: The column on the "Details" tab are not persistent across a reboot!!!!!! (I see this particular issue only on some Windows 8 Release preview machines, not all)
- Broken: "Show full account name" isn't working either. It is supposed to show the full UNC path in \\MachineName\User or \\Domain\User format.
- Bug: It can't even terminate a process properly. When I ended a process like Notepad, it terminates but I get this error message: Operation could not be completed: Access is denied
I just don't see Microsoft fixing these (they are just not that good any more). But I reported them after DEVELOPER PREVIEW. I'm sure MS will pass them off as "by design".
Yet somehow, they claim their goal was not to remove any functionality and that they didn't. It is silly to re-implement an application without providing the features the old one did. The old Task manager was included up to Windows 8 Consumer Preview but removed in Windows 8 Release Preview and now this cartoony Task manager is the only gone I'm stuck with! Massively disappointing.
And BRING BACK THE OLD TASK MANAGER AND KEEP IT AS AN OPTION LIKE YOU DID WITH CONSUMER PREVIEW AND DEVELOPER PREVIEW! WHOEVER WANTS TO USE THIS NEW ABOMINATION WILL USE IT BUT THE OLD ONE HAD A LEGACY AND YOU DELETED IT!!
Edit: Toned down some wording used out of frustration.

I agree with most of what you've said, and I too was disappointed to see the old Task Manager go, but I do have one small suggestion that *might* help you feel about 0.56% better about the new Task Manager:
For most of the screens there are columns that are not shown, probably deemed too geeky for mass market users, but which you can make visible by right-clicking on any of the column headings.

again, you don't have the required knowledge to understand this. New Taskmanager uses Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) to get the Disk and NEtwork IO data and this requires elevated rights to capture the data.
But I agree that some things like no longer showing the document name when running several notepad instances is painful.

Thanks for taking the first opportunity to point out that my knowledge is half-assed and for deliberately misinterpreting what I mean. To clarify, by "unnecessary", I meant that the design should not have been like that. The Task Manager can start without UAC to display the Processes for the logged in user. Terminating those doesn't require UAC, right? For seeing processes of other users or to access other system areas that require UAC elevation, there can be a button to elevate like the old task manager had. I never said everything should be done without UAC elevation, that may not be possible with a system tool like Task Manager. But the fact that the team which wrote the new one didn't consider a damn about the usage scenarios of people who load it at startup minimized to tray is disappointing. Also, note that they have designed it expressly for the default UAC level where it silently elevates some tasks. But if you set it to highest UAC level (the real secure UAC level), then it requires UAC prompt to start. It also means that if you are a standard user, not an administrator, and the UAC level is set to highest on that system, you can't terminate processes.

Not to fuel your frustration but seriously. How many people do you really think does this on a daily basis? 0.00000001% aka you and maybe a few more. Not trying to be a jerk but come on. You're just being silly if you think this is a normal thing that the average user is going to do.

- The old Task Manager could be set to run at startup, minimized so it would start up in the notification area/tray. The new Task manager requires UAC elevation so it doesn't run at startup. And even if it is set up from Task Scheduler to run as admin but minimized at startup, it does not minimize properly to the tray.
I thought I'd bump this to make a note about getting it to run properly on startup, which is still an inexplicable problem in RTM. Nircmd to the rescue, though I imagine someone will eventually come up with a better way.

Instead of improving upon the existing Task Manager in Windows like Windows Vista and Windows 7 did, Windows 8 attempts to "re-imagine" the Task Manager. While I understand that the "re-imagination" was possibly required for Metro style apps, this totally DISRUPTS desktop PC users' Task Manager.

Personally, I like the approach used in Preview versions, where both task managers could be used...
Either by different file names, or by cancelling (old task manager)/accepting (new task manager) UAC prompt
The new task manager is cool, but the old one should also be there...
During installation, if you open the task manager, it's the old one that will appear.

Did you notice that there are also visual styles on the buttons during the installation? The installer clearly uses an older version of Windows that hasn't been folded, stapled, and mutilated. What a sad joke Windows 8 has become.

I see Task Manager in RTM still has an old bug from at least Consumer Preview: if you've customized it (e.g. adding columns to Details view, or checking "Hide when minimzed"), and you have a system crash (or, for whatever reason, taskmgr.exe is killed--you can even simulate this by using Process Explorer to kill it), Task Manager loses its settings. Nice.
I have managed to figure what's wrong with TaskManager here.
TaskManager in Win8 stores its configuration unter HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TaskManager .
But, when started it actually DELETES current configuration and stores it when application is quit.
So, if TaskManager is quit forcefully (for example, during shutdown) or if Windows crash, the configuration will be lost.
This is simply terrible.
------------------------------------
Reply:
That explains a lot, thanks. I'd given up on customizing it, and the realization that merely restarting your system with it open is the equivalent of crashing it, doesn't make me want to use it extensively.
But, I guess what I could do is customize it once and for all, back up that key, and then add a reg import line to the batch file that I use to start it properly minimized (see above). This is progress, I guess.
What's MS going to do next to make our lives easier, do something crazy like remove the Start menu from the desktop?
------------------------------------
Reply:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't a system restart normally supposed to try to shut things down gracefully if at all possible? I should think this should include Task Manager. This strikes me as a pretty egregious bug on several fronts. Do you suppose they made it do this on purpose, in some twisted attempt to try to make it more sure that a system can recover from being irretrievably screwed up by a user?
It's a bit sad to think that even the imaginations of the current developers (keying on the term "reimagination") aren't even as good as the deliberate designs of the folks who programmed earlier versions of Windows.
Have we seen the golden age of computing come and gone?

The tm.exe he provides does seem to run. I tested it on a throwaway VM snapshot.
I don't know that I'd be ready to trust that it's not loaded up with malware just yet. Windows 8 itself doesn't like it, claiming that it's unrecognized, though you can run it anyway. I scanned it with Avast and it found nothing amiss.
You don't actually have to hack the registry (per that article) just to run tm.exe. You just have to extract the TM folder from the zip file onto your hard drive and run tm.exe. I just put a shortcut to it on the desktop. It's a nice option to have.

Given your endorsement I have to assume you personally verified that the tm.exe that he's included in the zip is identical to the one from the boot.wim. I haven't found the time to do so.
Not just Task Manager, but looking at Windows 8 in total it's clear the very future of computing itself is in danger. I'm imagining the pilots letting go of the stick and the plane suddenly diving while everyone has a big argument in the cockpit.
Microsoft still has time to reverse this nose dive, and now they even have an excuse with the retiring of Sinfosky, but will they continue to dive the plane into the dirt anyway without even pulling back a little on the stick?
Windows Blue could be what Windows 8 should have been. And it doesn't have to come out right away. They can take the time to get it right. We'll wait.

One thing I have noticed in the Win8 Task manager is that it deletes it's configuration when you run it. It is stored in the registry at; HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TaskManager
Then when Task Manager gets closed, the configuration is saved again. I don't see the point in this and configuration is lost if the computer hangs while Task manager is open. The solution is to configure it how you like, close it so config is saved. Then open regedit and export that thing. Then you can easily restore the configuration if it ever gets lost.
I also don't like the lack of detail in the 'basic' mode ("fewer details"). Indeed it should show windows titles, there is room to display that. Also like you said it won't save what tab you used last. Also that it does take a second to load, it takes more CPU cycles. But on a modern computer it doesn't matter.
But otherwise it's useful (for me) and Windows 8 in general I think of as Win 7 Second Edition, as long as I hide Metro with Start8.

WMP-12 "Play To" fails when display DPI setting is configured to 115%
THE PROBLEM:
Given a Windows-7 Pro x64 machine with two admin users, all is working well except that User-A cannot do a "Play To" from within Windows Media Player (WMP) to a second machine running Win-7 and WMP on the same HomeGroup. The "Play-To" dialog windows appears for about 1/10th of a second and then goes away.
User-B can do a "Play To" to the second machine just fine and it works without error.
WMP for both User-A and User-B is properly configured for streaming and control.
Windows event logs show only this one administrative error item that coincides with the problem. (The error shows up in the event logs after a couple of minutes.)
"Proximity detection failed due to unknown error '0x80004004'. The best proximity time detected was -1 milliseconds."
THE ANSWER:
User-A
Control Panel, Display, Set Custom Text Size (DPI)
User-A has the DPI set for 115% instead of the default 100%.
When this setting is changed back to the default 100%, then WMP "Play To" works properly.
ADDITIONAL INFO:
The offending program seems to be WMPDMC.exe, which is the Windows Media Player Digital Media Controller App.
I surmise that it has a bug and crashes when it cannot properly initialize its display because it doesn't properly handle the non-standard 115% display DPI setting.
WMPDMC.exe version is 12.0.7601.17514
Display is 1920 x 1200 x 32bit
Video is NVidia GeForce GT-530, driver 8.17.12.6716

BSOD occurs when creating striped or spanned or simple volume in windows 8
Just installed two OCZ Vertex 3 Max IOPS SSDs on my Windows 8 computer. Now when I attempt to format the disks and have Windows configure them as striped, spanned or even simple, computer works for about 2 seconds then goes to BSOD with the following error message: "Driver_IRQL_not_less_or_equal_(amdsbs.sys)".
Any ideas what this could mean or why I'm not able to configure the disks in RAID or format them? After Windows boots up again, I check Disk Management and there is no Partition letter for the volume I created and of course the disks are not formatted or in RAID and File explorer doesn't even list the disks (presumably because they are not mounted). Any help would be appreciated
Update! Forget stripping or spanning the two SSDs! I tried just formatting one and the exact same thing happened, BSOD occurs with the same error message: "Driver_IRQL_not_less_or_equal_(amdsbs.sys)"

B. Found this in Technet forum. Hope this help you too:
Performed the following:Dism /Mount-Wim /WimFile:D:\install.wim /Name:"Windows 8 Consumer Preview" /MountDir:D:\mount (mount install.wim to local directory)
Use the Windows Search Feature and Search for "amdsbs"
Replace all amdsbs.sys files with the version from the Development Preview (you will need to change permissions/take ownership of files:
MountDir\Windows\System32\Drivers
MountDir\Windows\Winsxs
MountDir\Windows\System32\Driverstore\FileRepository
Dism /Unmount-Wim /MountDir:D:\Mount /Commit (I had to kill explorer.exe to do this as it kept locking the file)
Did this for both Install.wim and Boot.wim, no bluescreen on AMD RAID/AHCI now

Update!! I decided to configure the two OCZ Vertex 3 Max IOPS SSDs in hardware RAID just to see what would happen when I tried to format the resulting logical disk in Windows .... and low and behold my computer did not give any BSOD and they were formatted in NTFS just like I had been trying to do earlier. But Wow a real head scratcher though. So why could I not configure a software RAID on these disks and or format them until I had them configured in hardware RAID. I bet the answer is really simple.

I am looking for data disc images. As in, a .iso file or so.
Hi
Why not just use your favorite internet search engine?

I was hoping an individual on these forums could actually provide me official Technet images or so. And perhaps one of the product keys, if no longer used.
Even though they are legacy operating systems, I do not know if it is allowed to just grab an ISO and product key on the Internet posted anywhere, regardless of whether I am a Technet licensee or not.

Sorry, my bad. I was just checking it out too.I wonder where I got all those iso's from. Probably the torrentz. I'll check that directory further and see if I can trace it back.
Interestingly, bootdisk.com has a link for XP setup disks, hosted by MS.
I'm not sure. Is that the entire XP Setup they're offering there?
I just don't understand why they're not archived on TechNet. Even the old Archive section of the Library has gotten drained down to nothing.
Due to legal issues with Java. I wish to install them on virtual environments and mess about and develop some test applications just out of personal curiosity.
It is a real shame these are no longer available. I am still young, if I were to have to find reliable retail copies of the initial and last release edition of each legacy edition, I would be losing a lot of money, and be loaded with a lot of physical content I am not interested in.

Use Bing Images and perform a search for each product image you desire. Product keys are not available since they would have been sold and are now obsolete.

You really suggest using Bing Images to find and download ISO images? Were you joking or serious? Did you actually read and comprehend what Freddiii was even asking here because it had absolutely nothing to do with pictures.
In any case, I just checked and it appears that anything prior to XP is not available on TechNet Pro anymore....so you'll have to find someone that still has copies of that software available. You'll then have to scrounge for keys to all of those products or resort to shady torrents. Not sure what you need 15-20 year old OS's available to test things on nowadays, but good luck with all that.

I was very young and grew up with those operating systems. Not to mention I am very interested in developing software, and just getting something as simple to work as "Hello world!" inside Windows 3.11 or Windows 95 would be a little achievement for me.
I really hope that somebody with the official Technet images that used to be up will stumble upon this thread.

Hi,
Please understand this is Windows 8 specify forum, did your require related with Windows 8?
And I'm afraid there's already no Windows 95 or Windows 2000 ISO file can be download from Microsoft official Website. And they are already end support.
Thank you for your understanding.

I understand. After contacting a department from Microsoft, they have redirected me here to see if any Technet user still might have the images.
There is no legacy operating system forum, sadly, so I did not really know where to put this but here.------------------------------------

Well, googling gives the following storage with VHD drives for all the obsolete Windows lineup, here you go.
You could grab one and test these OSes under Windows 8, I believe.

All links are dead sadly, due to Megaupload being taken down.
Thank you for the effort though, I truly appreciate it.

Downloading any Microsoft software from any unauthorized website is a form of software piracy.

Why is Mustafa Alces marked as abusive? That post was just informative.

Unfortunately, in my opinion, poster alias "Mustafa Alces" is violating the forum's Terms of Use by violating the "Defame, abuse, harass, stalk, threaten" clause. The TechNet Forum is designed for professionals who expect better conduct of those who post here.

Carey, would you please expand and kindly inform us what is meant here under "in your opinion"?
Would you please explain just by what reason have you decided you are the one to judge and rule the code of conduct.
If you have been assigned moderation privileges over here, would you please *explain* to the public just by what reason users' posts are getting removed?
I kindly ask administration to provide comments, and claim that I believe such a behavior is violation to the Terms of Use in the following part: "Restrict or inhibit any other user from using and enjoying the Communication Services." I herein claim that behavior of Carey Frish is inhibiting me from using and enjoying the Communication Services.
