Hello, I need help with unattended install, everything installs correctly, everything works but hibernation - it is not enabled , wenn I try to enable it (Control Panel -> Power Options or with powercfg.exe), I get an error message : Of cource I have enabled hibernation in my Winnt.sif Hibernation = Yes When I look into Event Viewer (after getting error message above) I see this entry: Type: Error Event ID: 45 Source: Ftdisk Category: none Description: The system could not sucessfully load the crash dump driver. Similar problem was described im thread Errors in the Event Viewer after unattended Thank you. Paulie

Hello big_gie, After hard investigation, the hibernation problem seems to be caused by the "ftdisk" eventid. Also, I think it is because I install hotfixes at t-12 (cmdline.txt via XPlode). I tryed installing them @ RunOnceEx and I can see in VMware that those errors are gone. I also have the same problem with hibernation, can you please explain in detail how you solved it ? And which hotfixes do you install ? Thank you. Paulie
