Another solution for SSD: EWF?

[cylo]

Is there a way to write all these registry entries into one batch file and run it so that I don't have to enter every entry one by one?

Thanks in advance!

Here's my try... hope its usefull
name it ewf-enabled.reg

Code: Select all

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root\LEGACY_EWF]
"NextInstance"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root\LEGACY_EWF\0000]
"Service"="EWF"
"Legacy"=dword:00000001
"ConfigFlags"=dword:00000020
"Class"="LegacyDriver"
"ClassGUID"="{8ECC055D-047F-11D1-A537-0000F8753ED1}"
"DeviceDesc"="EWF"
"Capabilities"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\R oot\LEGACY_EWF\0000\Control]
"ActiveService"="EWF"

name it ewf-device.reg

Code: Select all

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ewf\Parameters]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ewf\Parameters\Protected]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ewf\Parameters\Protected\Volume0]
"VolumeID"="{1EA414D1-6760-4625-8CBE-4F9F85A48E15}"
"Type"=dword:00000001
"ArcName"="multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)"


Please do take care with ArcName, adjust it with your configuration

here, i also make it as a package


After you installed all that things above, restart your AA1 and hit awfmgr c: on command prompt
Thats all.


I'm also want to make a question does it really necessary to include VolumeID on that Volume0 Key..?

Hi everyone,
I've modified Group Policies



At Startup, added a .bat script with
ewfmgr c: -enable

At Shutdown added
ewfmgr c: -commitanddisable -live
ewfmgr c: -enable

With this, all modifications are commited at shutdown, e.g. settings / configs

You can access GP by gpedit.msc command

More info at: http://forums.techguy.org/software-development/548398-how-run-command-before-shutdown.html


*EDT: You need to do it with ewf disabled, since it modifies the protected partition/disk

Hey there all, firstly, thanks for guide. Works great.
I still only have 512mb ram but the diff from b4 is amazing.
First I tried eeepc v.2 xp, very responsive, only 85mb ram usage with all drivers but msn msngr wouldn't work,
and httctrl.ocx error on every boot.
Then tinyxp v09, very complete but very slow. Ram usage at 160mb. No errors so far.

With this trick you have performed the AA1 is lightning fast, actually it's more responsive than my big pentium desktop.

Thanx !!!!

thank you so much! my a1 is re-born today.... it's blazing FAST! kudos also for Grella Scripts, it's a cool solution!

p.s.

thanks cylo for the RAR, but there's something wrong in your .reg... i had to manually enter the keys from the first post to make it work right.

This is not needed . EWF will start automatically unless you execute: ewfmgr c: -disable.

Hey Grella any chance you can upload the .bat script for shutdown.
thanks

The error is here:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root\LEGACY_EWF]
"NextInstance"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root\LEGACY_EWF\0000]
"Service"="EWF"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\R oot\LEGACY_EWF\0000\Control]

It should be: Root

Twizzo, tis happened to me earlier..., try tis

# Before you merge it you need to alter the permissions on one registry key. In regedit, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root.
# Right-click on Root and click ‘Permissions’. Set ‘Everyone’ to have Full Control and then merge the file by double-clicking on it, ensure that all values were entered properly and then reset the Root key permissions to the way they were before.
