    Don't worry about it. Just delete it. I have a 1 click solution now. Are you formating or are you following Yen's directions. Just make sure you undo everything you have done so far as it pertains to the patch. The .ats report you uploaded is identical to your first report. Let me know when you are ready and make sure your system is clean. Also uninstall RW-eveything too.

    I never heard of robocopy either. I typed xcopy/? to get some help with switches and it told to use robocopy instead. Can you believe that, a DOS box told me to use something better. I was shocked......lol
    Thanks for the suggestion. I will do that. Now it will really be a 1 click solution.
    I am still researching as to how to do it.

    I don't have Vista 64 bit, but you can try this:

    Copy the following files to the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\
    autoexnt.bat
    autoexnt.exe
    instexnt.exe
    servmess.dll

    AND autoexnt.bat to C:\Windows\System32 folder.

    Open a command prompt with administrator rights and type: cd C:\Windows\SysWOW64. Then type instexnt install and press ENTER.
    You should get the following message: CreateService AutoExNT SUCCESS with InterActive Flag turned OFF.

    Continue with Reginas instructions.............

    Report1:)

    -Managed to add grub4dos entry to Vista boot loader
    -managed to execute (floppy) patch sucessfully
    -returned to Vista bootloader, had to choose Vista........

    I'm satisfied for today, will make it perfect. To hexedit the IMG file directly to any SLIC works!!

    Playing with that is very exciting and a new matter...........;) I'm sure this will be a perfect method.......

    Is it possible to run Vista without to choose it? When it returns to bootmgr you come to the menue and you have to select it............

    I was very excited myself when it worked for the first time :) I don't know if we can automate the startup process when using Vista bootmgr to launch grub. A user needs to select inside Vista bootmgr grub first time, then Vista second time. Its like a circle. Now if you install grub to mbr, then it should work like other Softmods out there.

    I was told you must find a special register and flip certain bits to disable write protect, BUT its Northbridge chipset specific, that means we need datasheets for every mobo which is not easily accessable. So maybe we can still go that route later as its way over my head and very user specific.

    Now I can but only in vmware so far :D Method works. I simply moved RSDT backwards 4 bytes, changed size+4, added new Entry for SLIC, computed checksum and wrote SLIC in free space, then changed the RSDT address in RSD PTR by subtracting 4, update checksum and BINGO!!! I see you...:p So I say, if you know your bit, then you can SLIC it 100%.

    Edit:
    !!!MUST ONLY DO THIS IN VMWARE!!!
