They did successfully create an NTFS drive, but it won't boot on their computer.
@Achilles_Nascimento , I don't believe MediCat DVD is compatible with FAT32. Since you seemingly can't boot an NTFS drive on your computer, you're out of luck. Sorry.
I might try my luck with testing a UDF version and seeing if that bars any better results.

Hi,
I'm trying to add a french language pack to your Mini windows 10, but i've got errors saying Error : 1306, Dism failed. No operation was performed.

It seems to be a version number problem, but i'm working with a WADK 1703.

If you have a solution for me...

Sounds like your OS is messed up beyond (simple) recovery, I'd recommend backing up any data you need, wiping your system drive, and installing Windows from scratch.

ohhh man i'm willing to attempt (tough) recovery if its possible. By you saying simple might mean their is a possible way but tougher than a few clicks possible.. i'm willing to try... if someone can help

Recovery itself would be considered the simpler option.. Like Petra, I suggest backing up important data and making a fresh installation.

If you had another hdd you could copy the partitions to it. Then recover your windows partition on your computers original hdd. Then simply browse your second hdd for the software.

Unfortunately you might have to reinstall your software. But I seem to remember that windows recovery doesn't remove all of the software. Recovery only removes some software that microsoft thinks has conflicts with windows. Typically the games remain installed for instance. If you delete then reinstall windows you would have to reinstall all of your software before it could be used.

The issue is actually with Syslinux. Different BIOSes support different system calls, that's why when everything works on my end on my computers, it doesn't work for some people. I'm trying to easy my way into learning GRUB2 and BOOTMGR, and MediCat will slowly transition more and more away from Syslinux. Right now, I have the unreleased 17.10.03 working, where Mini Windows 10 and the Windows recovery discs are all selectable within the windows BOOTMGR menu. That's a huge step forward, now that I've learned how to use the commands and change the UUID numbers of the .wim files being called.

Any chance i can test it out? Tried it on 3 different computers with no joy. Thanks for your work on this. Much appreciated.

    I wonder if that was the point of game streaming
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    But it's a dead end
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, people who cant download it can still play the game
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    @BigOnYa, i only have like 1 or 2 mb sec

    Did you feed the hamster in your internet router? It prob died and is running slow now.

    Its actua!ly just a old joke, meaning its slow. Was just kidding around with you.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
