So I will retry with a clean install : 1. Copy the Xp CD to the hard drive 2. Create a new winnt.sif file. I use this one : ;SetupMgrTag [Data] AutoPartition=0 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes" AutomaticUpdates=yes [unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=No TargetPath=\WINDOWS UnattendSwitch="yes" FileSystem=* WaitForReboot = No NoWaitAfterTextMode = 1 NoWaitAfterGUIMode = 1 DriverSigningPolicy = Ignore NonDriverSigningPolicy = Ignore [GuiUnattended] ; AutoLogon = Yes AdminPassword=* EncryptedAdminPassword=NO OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=105 OemSkipWelcome=1 [userData] ProductKey=### FullName=### OrgName=### ComputerName=### [RegionalSettings] LanguageGroup=2,1 Language=0000040c SystemLocale = 0000040c UserLocale = 0000040c InputLocale = 040c:0000040c [identification] JoinWorkgroup=workgroup [Networking] InstallDefaultComponents=Yes 3. Create ISO and try with Virtual CD ................... This test is working. The first logon is quite long but is working... 4. Next step : Integrate the SP2.

I do That! Iuse CDIMAGE (with CDIMAGEGUI) to create the ISO and mount it to Virtual CD

Hi and thanks for your investigate! I will restart (again ) with a clean install. Perhaps my slipstream isn't correct? I will try with a soft instead of the Supercopier... Yesterday, I have try with another winnt.sif (with one created by winattended.com site) and withour drivers nor applications during install. It was the same! So, I will retart with my XP (without any Service Pack) this Week End ant I hope It will work. When you said you said I will copy the ISO of my XP CD and after extract the files to make any changes? (winnt.sif for exemple). For the log, It's because I'm working with Virtual CD and I don't know how to copy text file from the virtual OS to the Current Windows... perhaps you'll have a solution because I will not copy (by the hand ) all the log files !!!! I will inform you if my clean install with winnt.sif is working or not. Edit : Another strange thing is : with my first install (with application added with RunOnceEx batch), some applications will not correct install because the 'Windows Installer' service is not launched (but in automatic or manual state). So all the MSIEXEC installation are bad and not install.

For this test (I've done many ones...) I've decided not to install the drivers... but any change. For the DHCP client, it's an exemple as Themes... but when I install with the Non UA CD, It works !!! For info, I use Virtual PC to test my installations....

Hi, I use the same CD. In the non UA, I have an error with this file (beethoven9.wm_), I need to continue the installation and pass this file (I don't know why?). But at the end of the installation, the Windows Xp start correctly (I have the same first line in setuperr.log) ant all the services are correctly launched. ... The OLE errors are strange..

So, here is my winnt.sif file (I didn't copy this file to winnt32.sif !!) for this install, I didn't add regtweak nor svcpack file, only the unattended with this file. I have try with comment all the components to try without this section but it's the same !! (I try with Virtual PC) I have add 'OemPnPDriversPath' but with my last test, the directories were not present on my CD (prehaps it will create pb !!!) Thanks for your help ! Edit : I've had an image of setuperr.txt file (only the beginning, the rest is for unsigned files - from WMP10 I suppose...) --------------------- ;SetupMgrTag [Data] AutoPartition=0 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes" AutomaticUpdates=yes [unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall= No TargetPath=\WINDOWS FileSystem=* UnattendSwitch="yes" OemPnPDriversPath="drivers\000_IntelInf;drivers\001_LAN;drivers\002_Graphics\ATI;drivers\002_Graphics\WDM;drivers\003_SoundMax;drivers\003_ScSI;drivers\005_Mouse" DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore WaitForReboot=No CrashDumpSetting=0 DUDisable=Yes Hibernation=No [GuiUnattended] AdminPassword=#### EncryptedAdminPassword=Yes OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=105 OemSkipWelcome=1 [userData] ProductKey=#### FullName=### OrgName=### ComputerName=### [Display] BitsPerPel=32 Xresolution=1280 YResolution=1024 Vrefresh=85 [RegionalSettings] LanguageGroup=1 Language=0000040c [branding] BrandIEUsingUnattended=Yes Home_Page=http://www.google.fr Search_Page=http://www.google.fr [Proxy] Proxy_Enable=0 Use_Same_Proxy=1 [identification] JoinWorkgroup=#### [Networking] InstallDefaultComponents=Yes [GuiRunOnce] [Components] ;accessopt=off ;calc=off ;chat=off ;deskpaper=off ;fax=off ;freecell=off ;hearts=off ;media_clips=off ;media_utopia=off ;mousepoint=off ;minesweeper=off ;msnexplr=off ;paint=off ;pinball=off ;solitaire=off ;spider=off ;templates=off ;zonegames=off [WindowsFirewall] Profiles=WindowsFirewall.TurnOffFirewall [WindowsFirewall.TurnOffFirewall] Mode=0

I'm at work so i don't have this file. I will post this evening (I'm in France ! )

Hi! I have done a windows Xp unattended CD with SP2 and WMP10 (only for the moment!) I have test my CD (with virtual CD) : - without unattended : All is good, especially 'automated services' are launched - with unattended (winnt.sif file created from setupmgr) : Installation is good but after the reboot when I log on with Administrator session, I was affected by the fact that the theme is not on (Desktop is in classic mode but i didn't have choose this item in winnt.sif). When I look services, I found that only 4 or 5 services are launched. Themes and DHCP Client are not launched. I didn't know why and i didn't found any solution to correct this problem. If someone have any solution or test, thanks a lot. !-Tiico-!
