Hi!

I read in the forums that it is possible to have a "normal" taskbar with a "Start"-button in BartBE instead of the "NU2"-button? But I haven't found how to realize this

Can one of you guys tell me, how to change this?

Thanks a lot for your help for an absolutly newbie

Hello there =)



Newbi myself.. I found XPE to be really easy to use and it looks just like windows XP's classic taskbar.


I think there is even a way to make it look just like it with the blue and green. But not sure..

You can do a search on the form for XPE.. I can't remember the link to download it.

But it's a great Plugin.. I use it everyday! =)

Hope you like it.

Hi,

you can also use Geoshell.

XPE is found here :

Hello,
I've tried both of these and have yet to get the desired results. Can some one who has successfully done this Enable a task bar in bartPE, guide me through doing it?
Thanks

Both work. No way to know what your desires are.

Customizing the GeoShell manually is not for beginners.

If you want to use Sherpya's XPE plugin, then READ the following pages.
The instructions there a very easy to understand and follow.

good luck

Well I'm trying to get a windows XP classic look (windows 2000 look) Can some one who has successfuly done this guide me through how to do it? What plugin did you use?
Thanks

Download Sherpya's XPE plugin. Once you have downloaded it, add it to your plugins, then read the info on the links in my previous post. If you follow everything correctly, you should have Explorer as shell, which will give you the taskbar you want. As simple as that...

Thanks. I'm trying to fix/figure out the networking part now. I'll be moving on. Can you direct me to a thread that has what I'm looking for?
Thanks any way.

Nice to hear you finally have XPE working

About network support in BartPE+XPE, read the reply I did to your post here. I hope it helps you.

Hi Tux-Box1,


XPE v1.0.7 is working fine but make sure that the XPE plugin was processed after the Nu2Menu plugin, especially if you are running Pe-Builder on a FAT32 drive!
To verify this open the log file "pebuilder.log" and looking for the following two lines:
Processing INF file "[PeBuilder path]\plugin\nu2menu\nu2menu.inf"
and
Processing INF file "[PeBuilder path]\plugin\XPE\xpe.inf"
The line with Processing INF file [...] xpe.inf must be write after the line with Processing INF file [...] nu2menu.inf!
If that not the case rename the XPE plugin folder e.g. from "XPE" to "Z+XPE" and try again!
(To check the right directory order open a DOS Box (or CMD prompt) change to the plugins folder and type "dir", XPE should be listed after nu2menu! On a FAT32 drive that order can be different from the order displayed in the Windows Explorer!)

To show the Task bar in XPE permanently (without auto hide) open in the XPE plugin folder the file "xpe-defaults.inf" and
replace the section:

with

OR


Then make sure in the Pe-Builder "Plugins" setup the plugins "[Sherpya] Windows XPE v1.0.7" and "[Sherpya] Windows XPE: Defaults v1.0.7" are activated!

Do you really think cool400 is waiting for this answer to his 7 year old question???

Hi nuMe,

you are right! It was a little mistake!
I select the wrong forum article for the quote!

It should be more an answer for Tux-Box1! I edit the answer!

Yeah, you're talking about the Windows blinds plugin found here
