By the sound of it, if I were you, I would first use HFSLIP to integrate all required updates and such and afterwards use nLite to remove certain components.

1. I don't believe that nLite supports Windows Home Server. Please refer to the official web site to verify. 2. Instead of burning physical copies everytime, why not simply test within a virtual environment?

I would like to rip the music which plays in a certain Xbox 360 game during the menu, during the game itself and its credits. I've worked my way through various web site which I found via Google, but they either deal with ripping an audio CD using your Xbox 360 or they advise you to use a recording device connected to your amplifier which you use with your Xbox 360 for sound. The first thing is not what I want, the second does achieve what I want, but I would prefer to rip the music straight from the disc itself because the music during the game is covered with in-game sounds which I don't want. Is this possible at all and if so, how would I do this? Thank you in advance.

I assume that the topic starter believes that Windows XP comes with built-in anti-virus software, but this is not the case. Microsoft does offer a free anti-spyware application named Windows Defender, but this does not protect against virusses. Windows Defender updates via it's own built-in engine as well as via Windows Update or Microsoft Update. It is advisory to install an anti-virus solution yourself. There are various applications out there which will cost you money, but there are also several freeware alternatives.

Simply running filename.msi /? will work too and is easier to type

According to the nLite FAQ, if you remove certain components it's (mostly) not possible to restore them, which would mean that you would have to re-build your unattended installation.

Remote Access Auto Connection Manager depends on Plug & Play and RPC.

My new Xbox 360 Premium is in the mail, so it should be with me soon. I'll be receiving Call Of Duty 4 soon as well. Can't wait to play online!

No, as the name of the thread suggests this list is for free of charge software.

If you want to use a blank password, use the following, which might solve your problem: AdminPassword=* EncryptedAdminPassword=No

When you go to Microsoft Update, simply look up the KB-numbers of the required hotfixes and download the required updates via their corresponding KB-articles. But there are other ways too: Tomcat76 has created a list of all required updates for various operating systems which you can find via the HFSLIP web site. There is also a tool hosted on this forum which can help you download all required updates; I believe it's called Windows Update Downloader.

Run the application with /? to see which parameters an application allows. MSI-files always allow the same general parameters.

It sounds like you're using an already altered source. Re-copy your source files from your original installation disc.

Plenty of topics about this already. Don't people ever bother searching? Anyway, in short, Microsoft .NET Framework is a platform which is required by certain applications. If you don't use any applications which require Microsoft .NET Framework, there is no need to install any version of it. If you use an application which requires Microsoft .NET Framework 1, install the latest release of it. Microsoft .NET Framework 2 does not include version 1. Microsoft .NET Framework 3 requires version 2 to be installed, but the installer for version 3 includes version 2, so if you don't have version 2 installed, version 3 will install version 2 for you as well. Microsoft .NET Framework 3 also does not include version 1. Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 requires version 3, so it will install version 2 for you, followed by version 3, followed by version 3.5. Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 does not include version 1 either, therefore if you want all versions of Microsoft .NET Framework to be installed, install version 1 and 3.5. The easiest way of installing all versions of Microsoft .NET Framework is in my humble opinion to download RogueSpear's silent installer packages. Install version 1 and 2 via SVCPACK.INF first, afterwhich you can install any of the applications which rely on these via SVCPACK.INF as well. You can then install the "Lite" version of version 3.5 via RunOnceEx, followed by any applications which relies on it.

Where does it prompt you for a username during the installation process? Did you specify that it should be a fully unattended installation in your WINNT.SIF? You seem to be mistaken in regards to virtual environments. Your virtual environment runs on virtual hardware. This means that the correct drivers are the virtual drivers which come with your virtual environment software; VMware Workstation, Microsoft Virtual PC, innotek Virtual Box, all use their own virtual device drivers. The drivers for your real, physical hardware will therefore not work in your virtual environment. The only way to test your own drivers, the ones for your real, physical hardware, is to try installing on a real machine and not on a virtual machine.

This whole topic focuses on temporarily powering down a device. What you would like to do is disable it. Disabling a device via Device Manager will stop the device from working until re-enabled, so it your case your bluetooth device will not use any power when disabled.

Yes, it does work, but it would be much more nice if you would add your tweaks straight from CD-ROM, so that they don't need to be copied to your hard disk first, taking up space (even though it's only a few KB's), possibly fragmenting your hard disk and so that there is no need to remove these files from your hard disk afterwards. I'm a perfectionist; I like to do it as nice and proper as possible but if you're satisfied with your current method, then just stick to it.

It depends on where the registration information is stored. Some installers allow you to supply the registration information via parameters passed to the installer. If the registration information is stored in the Registry, you could export the corresponding keys and import them during installation. Other applications store their registration information in a file. You could simply have your silent installer copy over this file to the correct folder to register the application. But which application are you on about exactly? It would be easier to be of service if you would create a new topic in which you let us know which application is the culprit. If the English language is problematic for you, you can always send me a personal message in Dutch. Hope this helps.

... and I believe it's even discontinued if I'm not mistaken and replaced with SRS Audio Sandbox.

Having the same issue here as well now while recreating Currently troubleshooting, but it seems like WMP11 or one of its hotfixes is the source of the problem.

I've once compared a Microsoft supplied SP2 source with a self-slipstreamed SP2 source and the Microsoft supplied one was smaller in size.

Plenty of topics about this already, but to reply again in short, I always install RogueSpear's .NET 1 and 2 silent installer packages via SVCPACK followed by any software depending on them and I install RogueSpear's .NET 3.5 silent installer package via RunOnceEx.

Yes. You seem to be surprised
