gameux.dll + Games Explorer in Server 2008 r2 RC

[AsciiWolf]

Does somebody got working this two things in Server 2008 r2 RC?
I really want to move to 2008 r2, but I like Games Explorer, which I can’t found for r2. That’s the only thing, why I’m still using Win 2008 instead of Win 2008 r2…

dont see why gameux.dll wouldnt work, at least the game I know that asked for it works normally, the games explorer is another story… it installed and the links got there but they wouldnt execute and after a while only a empty folder that says “x items” is what was left…

Well, I tried to install gameux.dll from Windows 7 RC and it works well.
So, I made an installer (which is included as attachment) for it… 😉

I probably got “Game Controllers” Control Panel from Windows 7 working too. 😉

thank you, I had to do the gameux.dll manually cause the installer said the module “WindowsSystem32gameux.dll” and “WindowsSysWOW64gameux.dll” failed to load tho.

No. I can’t get this damn thing working…
I tried everything but the “Games” menu doesn’t appear in Start menu and typing “Games” in the explorer window run web search of “Games” instead of Games Explorer… 🙁
