Success - thanks. Downloaded fresh copy of nlite. Uninstalled previous, installed new, and everything worked as it should. thanks again

Thanks, I will download nlite again and try it out Monday.

My newest nlited dvd will not boot. You should know that I make a new dvd about every two months without issue. I tried my backup dvd from last month, and it would boot up if I so desired. Since I was having an issue, I started from scratch and still no go. I use a dvd-rw by the way. I also tried burning to a regular verbatim dvd, burning at 4x, using Imgburn as usual. Attached is the latest last session.ini. I usually delete the following before I start the process: DOCS, VALUEADD, DOTNETFX and SUPPORT Folders, and from the I386 directory I also delete the following: WIN9XMIG, WIN9XUPG and WINNTUPG and Lang. Outside of using the latest hot fixes, the rest of the format has not changed in quite a long time. Thanks in advance, Eddie LAST SESSION.INI

Through trail and error I have determined that the latest "update pack" is the source of my problem. Using XPSP3_QFE_UpdatePack_1.4.8_20110208.7z for Windows XP Post-SP3 user_hidden on 02-08- 2011 http://www.ryanvm.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7184 I will register and post a comment on the Ryan site. As an FYI, I got a fresh copy of SP3, nlite program and the "update" pack. When I left out the "pack", and included everything else, the process worked as it should. "Including" the 'update' pack caused the previously described failure. Just wondering, can the "update pack" still be used after a fresh installation, if one were necessary? Thanks, Eddie

Still need help. Tried a fresh copy of my windows xp pro operating system from my original disc. Still didn’t work. Am using ImgBurn v2.5.5.0 to burn ISO created by nlite. Tried using Deep Burner v1.9.0.228 to burn ISO, still didn’t work. Instead of using DVD-RW’s to burn ISO, tried using DVD+R, still didn’t work. My backup DVD still works with the message - press any key. Thanks again for any suggestions, Eddie

@myselfidem Hmmm, well the BOOTFIX.BIN "is" in the DVD disc that I created that didn't work. I suppose its possible that its corrupted as you stated. When I first started this whole 'nlite' thing I first made a copy of my original disc so that I wouldn't mess up the original. So I'll try and use a 'fresh' copy. @Ponch Don't understand what you mean by: Does the (destination) optical drive see the files on the media ? -- When I put the DVD disc in, I can "see" all the files. If your referring to the "ISO" created by nlite, I already deleted it so I can't go back and check it. Thanks again for your assistance, Eddie

I always copy my files "manually"

Made a new nlited DVD disc today, rebooted, but it skipped the step - press any key - and went straight into regular windows. Put it my "old" backup dvd disc and the - press any key - showed up. Burned a new dvd disc ( I always use DVD-RW's), rebooted and it also skipped the - press any key. Started nlited from scratch again, original windows xp and then integrate everything, same result, no - press any key. FYI: I usually create a new disc every few months just to keep things nice and clean. Thanks in advance for any assistance. Eddie LAST SESSION.INI
