I'd be happy about an answer if someone could help a little... Regards, Thilo

Dear colleagues! It's a pity that german-nlite.de is out of order, but I can write in English, too... Well, I installed some systems the last times with NLite, and the system I installed before got all tweaks, for example with "my computer", and Notepad++ as substitute for notepad, and so on. Well, my old Thinkpad T 41P had to be installed new, because system was unstable, and I did it... But some thing went wrong, maybe the nlite preset file was corrupted or a little misset... Anyone knows why? Well, I added that other preset file, too, maybe you could see what's the problem. Thanks. Thilo Letzte_Session.ini Angelos_PC.ini

Really no one knows how to install ATI Hydravision unattended? Thilo

thanks, fine... well, If I want, the Net Framework will be put into the HFSVCPACK Folder... Like Agi said in German, there must be some other entry of file wrong in the HF-folder... therefore I added the Log-File, like being recommended... Thilo HFSLIP_LOG.txt

Dear colleagues, thanks for your motivation... I cannot say really what the problem was, because now the problem got solved automatically, I killed my Nlite-partition by experimenting with mkbt.exe, and entered the wrong drive letter... then I had to place all data for new on my partition, and then it worked... seems as if some Addons and some other event caused to destroy some data, so that nothing went at all before... Thilo

first of all, I deleted the framework files... When I put them into the HFSVCPACk-dir, must I put the patches as well in there? And what about the microsoft file? there's an entry in the TXTSetup.SIF which is called "microsoft , 1...", but I don't know what that microsoft file is for, and where I can get it.... Thilo

Well, if Framework doesn't belong in there, where should I put it in? I had a link to a site where optional plugins etc. were described, but lost the link... Then I have to kill the patches as well, concerning framework... and what about the microsoft-file? when I delete the line with "microsoft" in TXTSetup.SIF, there won't be any error message any more. I still don't know what's that file good for... Thilo

Hello Tomcat76 of course I can. Here you are: Original HFLIP-ped TXTSetup.SIF... TXTSETUP.zip

Hi together! after HPFSLIP-ping, there's an error message I get during Windows 2000 Professional installation, during the text mode setup. when copying the files onto hard disk, W2K setup tells "file microsoft could not be found", I have to cancle that error message, and setup continues... That error messages happens as well when I click only at "unattended setup", and leave the other nlite options free... Thilo

well, maybe I'll check for that problem another time, now I actually slipstreamed the sp4 files by the update-tool in the W2KSP4.exe-file, and then HFSLIP do the rest for another slipstreamings... By the way: Is there a chance to change all head lines from "HPFSLP" into "HFSLIP"? Thilo

thanks to your answer, nuhi... the problem solved automatically, I used nlite 1.35 final, and 1.4 beta doesn't have that problem any more... for earlyer versions, there's one recommondation that you shouldn't use the any desktop tweaks concerning nlite and "Windows 2000". Regards, Thilo

Hello. I'm looking for the parameters to automatic install of the ATI Hydravision tool. I couldn't find those at another place, the hints for recognizing the setup icon and then to see which parameters are right didn't work... Anyone knows how I can reach that unattended installation? thanks... Thilo

Hi together! I am wondering why the icon "my computer" wasn't shown any more after my installation... Well, under Windows XP, there's a chance to prevent Windows from showing icons like "network neighbourhood" or "my computer". I know that there's a registry entry to prevent Windows 2000 from showing that icon on desktop, too, but I don't know the tweak entry to show "my computer" on my desktop. I manually entered the tweak "Desktop- show my computer" or "Desktop-Arbeitsplatz anzeigen", but I don't know if that helps... I believe that issue was asked already, but maybe I am a little too stupid to find that theme Thanks for your reply... Thilo P.S. Where is the place to enter the entries in the windows system so that those tweaks are working? I think most of them are a registry entry?

Well, thanks for your German answer, Tomcat76... with my last comment, concerning CDROM?.TST, I meant the following: - CDROMSP3.TST oder CDROMSP4.TST should tell the actual version of the servicepack. - when manually slipstreaming SP4 onto/into my SP3-Windows 2000-Files, I meant by "update -s:Drive-letter:\directory", the MS-tool creates a CDROMSP4.TST, but CDROM3SP.TST still exists, was not deleted. that was a little unclear, I meant, with HFSLIP, no "CDROMSP4.TST" was created, but the reason why it didn't work could be the wrong filename like I supposed... look into the HFSLIP-script, the end of the first part doesn't matter: But apparently, there was no CDROMSP4.TST created by that script, I just checked it with the name "w2ksp4_de.exe" instead "w2ksp4.exe", whose names are both included in the HFSLIP-script by wildcard.

Thilo

But I used the newest HFSLIP 1.5, and there was only an "folders.cab" in the SVCPACK, and that should not be considered as "unclean" any more? Thilo

Hello... I wanted to run HFSLIP 1.5 over my Windows 2000 Professional files in German language, but I don't know why that error message appears: The files in my "SOURCE"-directory are not patched, I had copied them freshly into SOURCE. What's wrong? Is there something I had not seen or read before, or is that a bug in HFSLIP? Regards, Thilo

Well, I looked into the "HF"-directory, the name of the SP-Update-File is "W2KSP4_DE.EXE", don't know if it should be "W2kSP4.EXE", because I've always slipstreamed my W2K-SP3-Files, original copied from CD-ROM, and not any change, with the update-tool contained within that W2kSp4_de.EXE-File... And I thought that there's no need to pack the W2kSP4-File into the HF-directory when it's already slipstreamed into the W2k-installation-files on my harddisk? After manual slipstreaming, there was a new file added into the main directory of those installation files, called "CDROMSP4.TST", but the "CDROMSP3.TST" was not removed. When trying to to that, no "CDROMSP4.TST" was added, but the wrong filename could be the reason why. By the way, is it better to let slipstream HFSLIP the SP-files, or manual prepare the slipstreaming, and then run HFSLIP? I retried the HFSLIP-ping, but I got another error message I already got before, and will add a new thread for that, because that's another theme regards, Thilo

Hello Nuhi, I tried to find out what the reason is for the hang-ups, but it seems to be more unclear the time advances. First of all, I thought the Addons were the reason, and I removed some of them apparently not working under Windows 2000. Then the system saved the settings, and I changed something. I added some ELSA ISDN card drivers, and the setup hanged when trying to detect my hardware, then I removed it, and some times later my windows setup stopped again when saving the settings, at 10 percent or less like before... Some time later, I tried to remove no components, it was possible that the removal of those killed something essential for the saving of settings under W2K. Like asked, the last_session.ini is added, the settings were named "Neuanfang" in German, or "new beginning" Unfortunately, there was no successful beginning... Isn't there a chance to read the logs unter Windows in general to find out when or why Windows setup hangs up? there are several logs in the windows directory i can export to another drive when pressing "Ctrg-F6" so that the command prompt can be opened... regards... Thilo Neuanfang.ini

there's one important question, maybe already answered at another place: - what is better, an original Windows-Installation-CD with original SP?-CD, and to copy the whole CD on harddisk, and to let HPFSLP slip the newest SP into the installation? then it would be enough to copy the files into the "Source"-directory, and the SP? into the "HF" directoy, and then to start HPFSLP, when I read the manual the right way. - or to decompress the newest SP into a directory, change into the update-folder, enter "update -s:(drive:)\directory", let slipstream the already and original copied files from CD-ROM, delete maybe the older CDROMSP?.TST-File to avoid errors (I tried that, without deleting CDROMSP3.TST, the CDROMSP4.TST existed in the main directory, too. HPFSLP had trouble with it, or I made something wrong (W2K-SP.exe is already in "HF") regards, Thilo

Hello together! As far as I know, when manually integrating SP4 into a Windows 2000 Pro-SP3-CD, by entering "Update -s:E:\WinSource" or something like that, the MS-Tool automatically slipstreams not only the changed data, it also changes some files in the basic directory of those copied Windows-installation-CD-files. is that normal in my case, or could there be something a little improved? By the way: after copying original data from my W2K disk, HLFSLP maintains the data is not original, something should be changed... But I changed nothing... Regards, Thilo

Hello together! I have currently the problem that my auto-install-CD cannot setup a fully startable Windows 2000 Pro system, it always hangs up when trying to save the settings. I know that there are logs, but how can i find or read them so that I know the reason why Win setup hangs up? Regards, Thilo
