[Windows XP Media Center Edition and SP3]

SP3 can not be integrated to media center edition.

For drivers use nLite, page "Drivers". Make sure that all of your drivers are extracted because nLite search for .inf file.

To merge two CD's just copy all files from CD1 and CD2 to same folder on hard drive.

Cheers

Is this a fact the MCE cannot be slipstreamed with xp sp3?

I have just attempted to do this and it trashes internet explorer!

[Custom XP with SP3 hangs at the Admin password and Name screen]

I have similar problem. Installation media is proper and works fine as it is, but when unattended installation is made out of it with nlite, just can't auto login. See picture:

Okey, it's in Finnish but basicly it says that there are now user account avaiable that is trying to auto login. I made the account d0_0b with nLite, but just it doesn't show up in Windows. When I login with Administrator and check the user accounts settings from control panel, there are only Administrator account.

Why on earth there will be not accout that I make with nLite?

[Custom XP with SP3 hangs at the Admin password and Name screen]

I have no idea why it hangs for you, but, did you put an installation number in the slipstream disk and did it install unattended for you?

My one will not accept the original number I have used for years!,,

[Slipstreamed and NLite windows XP sp3]

I have just slipstreamed sp3 using the latest nlite program and it will not accept the installation key - this is the same key that works with sp2.

I have tried creating the slipstream disk in Vista and XP!,,,

Any ideas why?

Anyone?
