My apologies for the necropost. I didn’t look at the date of the last post. I did however look thru the other 2 pages of this thread (it came up on google in a search) and couldn’t find the info that I added about using a win7 dvd in order to get a cardgames.dll and the method in which to do it…

unless you have something that adds to the conversation

As i already said: Windows 7 Games was fixed years ago.
So you are not adding anything new….

Also, there is no need to quote my whole post above.
I know what i wrote, and everyone else can also read that post…. 😉

Here’s what I did.

Got all the files from here put them in needed spots (sys32 and syswow) and regsvr32’d them.
Put slc in game folder (thanks)
Didn’t have a win7 installation for cardgames.dll but did have a win7 dvd so I did some hunting…

Why do you post this “old” info here, in a thread with the subject “Wish List Progress” ???
The previous post is from 27 Jul 2011 08:43….

Windows 7 Games was fixed years ago….

Please read the FORUM-RULES:

“12: Try not to bump old topics unless you have something that adds to the conversation perfectly, and that the conversation can be continued.
You can of course start a new thread and say that the similar thread was getting a bit old.
Stickies are excluded from this rule.”

I deleted your attached image because it was very large, and it´s also not needed.

You can use the converter instead…
I assume you already have WS2008-R2 ?

[hackerman1]

And, for your information: i don´t even have the actual ISO-file.
That software was compiled by another member, long before i became administrator.
So before i can upload it anywere i have to download it first…..

[hackerman1]

OK.
I suspected that you meant those links, but i wanted to be sure i knew what you were talking about.

The mediafire-link seems to be “dead”, i can´t see any files there.
So i assume you are talking about The Pirate Bay then ?

Anyway, since “our” software is available on multiple webbsites i have planned to instead upload all software to one webbsite.
Having eveything in one place would make it easier for everyone.
But i have not had time to do it yet.
Check back in a couple of weeks, it might soon be fixed….

Which ISO do you mean ?

The latest pre-modded version of WS2008R2 with whatever service pack available.

I understood that you meant that.
But where in the forum did you find the link to the ISO ?

Sorry for bringing the topic up, but could someone reupload the iso? The torrent speed is almost non-existent 🙁

Hi !

Welcome to the forum.

Which ISO do you mean ?

Hi !

Welcome to the forum.
Thanks for the information, but it´s actually already wellknown that Avira works on WS….
The trick with the “ProductOptions”-folder is all that´s needed.
http://www.win2008r2workstation.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=965&p=4802#p4802

However, after having seen your post I looked at the list of security-software:
“Avira AntiVir Personal Edition Cannot be installed on a Server OS”, see “Forum-topic”
http://www.win2008r2workstation.com/security-software/

It seems that the information regarding Avira hasn´t been updated in a long time.
Anyway, that was long before i became Admin here… 😉
I´m adding updating that info to my todo-list.

Regarding the trick with the “ProductOptions”-folder, there is a safer way to do it,
take a look at my post “How to install programs with “server-allergy”:
viewtopic.php?f=64&t=2463

Read the section under A safer and easier way…

[hackerman1]

Hi !

Welcome to the forum !
I don´t know where you can find WS2008-R2, I get my software from Dreamspark.

Conversion info: http://www.win2008r2workstation.com/

Converter: viewtopic.php?f=21&t=1924

Hi !

Macrium Reflect 4.2 FREE works on WS2008 / WS2008-R2 / WS2012.
With the “usual” Appverifier-trick: viewtopic.php?f=64&t=2463
Not tested it on WS2012-R2 yet, but i assume it will work.
I have tried newer versions but i´ve had problems getting them to work (“server-allergy”…),
so i have not updated it.
But since 4.2 works i don´t have any real reason to do it.

When are these files supposed to be from (the ones for Server 2012 R2)?
From 2009?
Is that correct?

Because I also can’t get the superfetch service to start correctly.
I get an error (Error 24) saying that the program issued a command but the command length is incorrect.

Edit: No, these files are most likely from Windows 7, so I replaced them with the ones from Windows 8.1.
Unfortunately it still doesn’t work, now I get a different error message saying that the operating system is not configured to run this application…

This thread is about the server converter for WS2008-R2.
Since you mentioned “the ones for Server 2012 R2” and “Windows 8.1” i assume you are looking to convert WS2012-R2 ?

There is another forumsection for Windows Server 2012 R2: viewforum.php?f=58

And a thread “WINDOWS SERVER 2012 R2 $OEM$ PACK”: viewtopic.php?f=63&t=2498

I have tried the one for 2012, so is it already fixed for 2012 R2?

I don´t know.
I only asked because if you meant the new version, then i should move your post to the other thread….

Thanks for the excellent tool, very useful to me.

A small issue though, if your server is on drive other than C:/ (e.g. D:/, E:/ etc), in this case the right-click option to show/hide folders/extensions does not work because it can’t find the .vbs script in C:/…/system32.

Do you mean “MICROSOFT SERVER CONVERTER 2012” or the new version for R2 ?

Windows Password Recovery…….
………..So it is the best way to reset your lost Windows password.

Best ?
Well, that can be discussed….

You need to first save your password before you can “recover”.
Windows Password Recovery needs a reset disk:
“If you forget your Windows password, you can use a password reset disk to create a new one. We recommend that you create a password reset disk when you create your password, so you don’t lose access to your files and information.”

1. Install or upgrade the antivirus software in accordance to the instructions in the OP
2. Remove the “Deny read” permission on your own user account
3. Add this new entity to the permissions list: “NT SERVICEavast! Antivirus”, for the case of Avast 8. Additionally, if a member of a domain or a domain controller, change the search scope (the “Locations…” button) to your local server instead of the Active Directory.
4. Click “Check Names”
5. Click Ok and set the “Deny Read” permission.
6. Update Avast!

Hi !

Thanks for the info.
But, it´s a bit confusing….

Could you please explain #2 ?
There is no “deny rights” on your own user account in the original post.
It says “deny read rights” for ADMIN.

Could you please explain #3 ?
Where should “NT SERVICEavast! Antivirus” be added ?
