Thread: Need ideas on how to accomplish getting a screen fabbed into my bezel please..

This is the type of rocker I would want but I think it may be too deep for that location (not even sure if it's the correct type).

LOL I hear ya man.. That site blows goats!

Got my solid state drive today.. Here are some boot times:

Cold boot Windows XP until Centrafuse is running - 44 seconds
Cold boot Windows XP with Minlogon until Centrafuse is running - 38 seconds
Cold boot Windows XP with Minlogon and EWF enabled until Centrafuse is running - 33 seconds

Not too bad times..

One thing I'm having problems with though is figuring out how to disable EWF so I can make changes to the system and then enable it again after I make those changes.. I think someone on this thread said they had bad files to do so.. If so, could you post the code please?

Thanks!!

ewfmgr c: -commitanddisable –live
- This will immediately disable EWF and commit all changes to the volume.

ewfmgr c: -enable
- This will enable EWF on the next boot up.

Yea, I tried using those but for whatever reason it wasn't working.. Maybe I'm doing the process wrong..

So do I run the commit... bat file, then make any changes I need to make (install programs etc), and then run the enable bat file? Is that the order it should go in?

Thanks

This don't look right.. For whatever reason it's putting a funky character for the "-" before the "live". When I run it via command line it works.



I re-edited my bat files and deleted the "-live" and retyped it and now it works.. Weird!

Well the hits just keep on coming.. Just found out the Zotac board's DVI port is digital only just like the Intel board I was going to get but decided not to because of that exact reason..

That means I can't use the DVI to VGA adapter that is commonly used and that I am SCREWED!!!

You can put a shortcut on your desktop to turn on and off EWF. I am not sure how to do it. I know Kimota does, and Machinehead probably does too.

Basically all these new mobos that are coming out are all DVI-D. Reason being is thats what most people have on their LCD/HDTVs. I see alot of people use these as media center units, so of course it makes sense to make it a DVD-D. It could also be its cheaper to make it pure digital then to make it digital and analog.
