Welcome @ MSFN-Forum! You don`t behave rude. It`s just the problem that you asked a question that has been asked and answered a million times. There is no really answer, everybody has own wishes how to configure XP. Why you use HTML to show what you have removed? We are used to read the "Last Session.ini" - please attach it instead of your HTML. This is my "Last Session.ini" - Thread German-WinLite.de: http://german-winlite.de/wbb/index.php?pag...D=3216#post3216 You can download my INI and load it with nLite to see what I remove/tweak. I use this INI since nLite-development has stopped at 1.4.9.1 without problems.

Same question, same users, but thread still active: http://www.msfn.org/board/oem-folders-t127...p;view=findpost

Maybe you`d like to share your solution with others?

This is a regtweak to DISABLE the pagefile: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management] "WriteWatch"=dword:00000001 "ClearPageFileAtShutdown"=dword:00000000 "DisablePagingExecutive"=dword:00000001 "LargeSystemCache"=dword:00000000 "NonPagedPoolQuota"=dword:00000000 "NonPagedPoolSize"=dword:00000000 "PagedPoolQuota"=dword:00000000 "PagedPoolSize"=dword:00000000 "SecondLevelDataCache"=dword:00000000 "PagingFiles"=hex(7):00,00,00,00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management] "WriteWatch"=dword:00000001 "ClearPageFileAtShutdown"=dword:00000000 "DisablePagingExecutive"=dword:00000001 "LargeSystemCache"=dword:00000000 "NonPagedPoolQuota"=dword:00000000 "NonPagedPoolSize"=dword:00000000 "PagedPoolQuota"=dword:00000000 "PagedPoolSize"=dword:00000000 "SecondLevelDataCache"=dword:00000000 "PagingFiles"=hex(7):00,00,00,00 So you got to setup a PC with your wanted settings, export this settings and import this regfile to the other machines - should work.

This is caused by a retweak that adds "Copy to/Move to" to the contextmenu. I know this problem, and I still havn`t found a solution.

This is (part of) my "winnt.sif": ; Generated by nLite 1.4.9.1 [Data] AutomaticUpdates="Yes" Autopartition=0 MsDosInitiated=0 UnattendedInstall="Yes" [Unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended UnattendSwitch="Yes" <----------- THIS! OemPreinstall="Yes" <----------- THIS! OemSkipEula="Yes" ProgramFilesDir="\PROGS" CommonProgramFilesDir="\PROGS\Gemeinsame Dateien" FileSystem=* WaitForReboot="No" NoWaitAfterTextMode=1 NoWaitAfterGUIMode=1 DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore NonDriverSigningPolicy=Ignore Hibernation="No"

I don`t write that list manually, sorry. I use tools like "Directory Listing", add the pre- and post-syntaxes there, too. Maybe a better way - you can edit different parameters to hotfixes. In most cases the CMD by "anonyroot" is easier to use and will work pretty well.

These files are only needed if you want to - upgrade from older OS (Win98, 2000,) - install from running OS into other partitions - do a Repair-Install If you want to do a fresh install by booting from your XPCD, "Manual Install and Upgrade" can be removed without trouble.

Sorry John, I missed that point in my advice: I always use the MKISOFT-Engine building the XPCD.

I think it would be possible to do it this way - but still too complicated to me. Why don`t you use the simple RunOnceEx-Method? The INF-Method would be okay, but I can`t help you any further, sorry.

There is no way to tell Windows to choose, format and install to a particular partition. Windows is able to do this only by choosing a whole HDD. Guide: winnt.sif-Reference

Please attach your "winnt.sif" - delete the productkey before.

What about "RunOnceEx"? Guide: http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/view/web/59/

Are the reg-entries written to registry when you execute the INF manually in running system?

I prefer this too. I am able to configure a fresh FF with all my favs wherever I am.

That won`t be a solution to the real problem.

I prefer Acronis too. Images stored on external HDD (a slow, but safe place).

1. XP Pro (optimized for Cubase-MusicProduction) 2. XP Pro (Working-OS) 3. Win7 x64 (Testing)

1. The MassStorage-Drivers in the extracted DP do not contain the needed "txtsetup.oem". So the integration of these drivers won`t work as required TEXTMODE. Integrate them by DP-Base. 2. To integrate all extracted DPs is possible, but I ran into problems due to mass of drivers. nLite sometimes freezes, the whole process seems to be "too much" for nLite. I prefer to integrate only my needed drivers with nLite. If I install on other PCs, I use a "SAD-DriverDisc", that I created @ "German-WinLite". Here`s the link to the thread (german): http://german-winlite.de/wbb/index.php?pag...18851#post18851 If you need help (translation), feel free to ask me.

I don`t think that old (maybe outdated) thread is a solution. Get back on the track by analysing the real problem - drivers are corrupt or missing. Please attach your "Last Session.ini", so we`ll take a look what was integrated.

I cleanup the complete Autostart of programs by a regfile: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run] [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run] After that step I set my wanted Autostarts (only example, don`t use it like that): Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run] "AutoSizer"="\"C:\\PROGS\\Autosizer\\AutoSizer.exe\"" "RocketDock"="\"C:\\PROGS\\RocketDock\\RocketDock.exe\"" "CCleaner"="C:\\PROGS\\CCleanerPortable\\CCleanerPortable.exe /AUTO" "Sysinternals Process Explorer"="C:\\SYSTEM\\system32\\taskmgr.exe /t" "LClock"="C:\\PROGS\\LClock\\lclock.exe" "SuperCopier2.exe"="C:\\PROGS\\SuperCopier\\SuperCopier2.exe"

Maybe nLite is your solution to shrink your XPCD. Just give it a try: http://www.msfn.org/board/nlite-f89.html

Hm, this guide seems a little bit too complicated to me. I prefer this one: http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/view/web/59/

Maybe DoubleDriver does the job. You install every driver one time manually, then let DoubleDriver extract the drivers out of your running system. Take a look at these new folders that DoubleDriver created. Every Driver should be seperated in it`s own folder, all unneeded files should been gone.
