I just tried creating an installation cd with nLite on a friend's Windows XP machine, et voila, no problems at all. Furthermore I accidentally found that the seemingly crashed session of nLite on my Vista machine DID produce an installation cd. So, apparently, when running nLite in Vista Home Premium, the progressbar is not displayed at the end and nLite "turns it's back on Vista", giving the impression of a crash, but if you leave it long enough (I think as soon as you see that your burner stopped flashing the little green light...) it will burn and finalize. Nobody else had this problem in Vista? ah, I know, nobody else has Vista.. lucky you! Cheers Tha Phish

try this: http://forums.hexus.net/showthread.php?t=20748 the first post describes the integration of sata drivers manually, later on a lot more other drivers. I think it's system related though, so, you know, caution an stuff like that. good luck

sorry about the u.ini files, didn't know that.. so the "u" stands for "unattended", eh.. If it were possible to have an emoticon as a name I would be this one

First of all thank you nuhi for develloping this great tool I bought a new laptop with vista on it, none of my old programs worked in vista, decided to downgrade to xp, stumbled over the sata drivers crap and spent over a week reading forums and trying to get xp on my laptop. Now I know the only thing that could save me is a windows installation cd with sata drivers, prefferably created by nLite. Doing this by hand does not look promising considering my computer skills... I have the right drivers (pretty sure, they came off the manufacturers driver cd) and nLite runs perfectly fine, except when I finally get to the screen where it says "create image" or "burn" (tried both, tried custom boot sector, in nLite 1.4 beta and some older version), click the magic "burn" or "create image" button, the progress bar stays empty forever and all it says is "preparing" inside the progress bar.. and if you activate some other window and go back to nLite it's "not responding".. I thought it might need some time at first but over a day? Anyone encountered this sort of thing? I will TRY (first post here..) to attach the settings file of nLite, would appreciate any hints! Is it vista? my 2GB ram not enought for nLite? I've been "blinking" all week, my eyes are startin' to hurt.. Is microsoft guarding over my laptop and shutting down nLite with a diabolic "muahahaha" and a parental "no you won't!"? Last_Session__2007.07.04_17.51.32_.ini Last_Session__2007.07.04_13.38.39_.ini
