The Windows XP kernel includes a number of improvements over Windows 2000 that promote better scalability and overall performance. This article covers these changes and explains how they improve startup time, increase registry size limits, and promote more efficient disk partitioning. Windows XP provides support for 64-bit processors, which is covered here along with a discussion of how side-by-side assemblies end DLL Hell. Also new in the Windows XP kernel is a facility that will roll back driv... |

I've always enjoyed using a control that behaves like the OutlookBar in Outlook. After testing and creating this, I knew that if I wanted other people to work intuitively with my programs, the OutlookBar control must look and work like the one in Outlook.... |

As promised, on Thursday, April 30, 2009, Microsoft made the Windows 7 Release Candidate (RC, see my review) available to MSDN and TechNet subscribers. But it also made an updated (but not yet rebranded) version of XP Mode for Windows 7 and Windows Virtual PC available via the same distribution points. Since Rafael and I gained access to the first external build of XP Mode (then as in this beta called Virtual Windows XP, or VXP), we've been eager to see a more updated version. So what do we see ... |

Web development on Windows XP Professional is a drag, or it was until I discovered two "fixes".
First, Microsoft in their kind way (being ironic Bill), implemented the simple file sharing on XP. I wasted a lot of time on this "fix", trying to change permissions on a database (giving the IUSER_xxx user write permission). Enough said.... |

The interface supports a number of styles that will be new to users, and it also supports customization of those styles through a new concept called themes.

Windows XP includes both improvements to the operating system and several new features that enhance the user experience. The most noticeable change in Windows XP is the user interface, which includes a revised Start menu and updated Task Bar. The new look is possible because Windows XP can be skinned, which lets the interface be changed dramatically with a new facility called themes.... |

Three such tools are discussed here and provided as samples. DllSpy lists all the DLLs loaded in the system and the processes that are using them. ProcessSpy enumerates the running processes and exposes the DLLs they are using, and ProcessXP displays the list of concurrent running sessions for Windows XP.... |

A few of my favorite things are:
* ClearType font smoothing in Windows XP
* Working from home using Remote Desktop
* Not running Vista
Unfortunately, when using Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) to connect to your Windows XP machine, font smoothing using ClearType is disabled. My guess is that back in 2001 when XP was released, Microsoft made the decision that ClearType over RDP would be prohibitively slow.... |

I recently posted an article here that showed an approach to extending the Windows.Forms.ComboBox control to render a tooltip over an item in the dropdown listbox if its text was obscured; similar to how the TreeView control works. After a little feedback, I decided to extend the control to support owner-drawn 'superish' tooltips. It's all pretty simple stuff, but there was enough refactoring and additions to the original code to warrant a new article as opposed to an edit.... |

I am somehow sure that most of us have some time in their software development career, come across the need to skip the Windows login screen, for instance an installer class making some changes that require a Windows restart. Well, that's exactly what I will demonstrate in a very simple way in this article... rebooting and logging into Windows XP using C# (.NET 2.0).... |

The goal was to get it to build and run correctly on the 64-bit edition of the Microsoft .NET Advanced Server running on computers with Intel Itanium processors and still build as a 32-bit version to run on Pentium class x86 processors.... |

Recently, I was working on a project that required the Start button to be hidden. After searching through about 1 million code snippets, I found no code that would do this to my requirements. All the snippets I found used the user32 ShowWindow API to hide the window, but this left a blank space where the Start button used to be.... |

Code fails. It's a sad fact of life. It is these security failures and code vulnerabilities that interest me most. In the industry, we worry a lot about improving code quality. While code quality is exceptionally important, most code will eventually fail so we cannot focus exclusively on getting the code right. Imagine for a moment your code is perfect. It's only perfect by today's standards—a snapshot of best practices at the time it was developed. Yet the vulnerability research landscape is co... |
