Hi, thanks for the winnt32 fix. I'm still having problems... New to forums, but reading yours quite heavily lately Been looking around, but no other topic seems to cover exctly what I'm experiencing. I'm installing Windows (with SP3) using nlite from both CD and USB. The CD version is absolutely fine. The USB install is lacking Start Menu entries/ Quick Launch (as in the folder). The USB install DID work with SP2, however I did notice, that when I upgraded to SP3 the Quick LAunch toolbar went missing for NEW users. I know similar topics have been posted, but let me explain how I install: From a USB stick I dump the contents of an nlite iso to C:\ and from there I start the install using winnt32.exe (with switches). \I386\winnt32.exe /syspart:%dest%: /unattend:winnt.sif #where %dest% is C:\ in this case (or whatever you feed it) After the reboot the install goes fine, but I'm still missing alot of things in the start menu - ie, media player, BUT also thing like mspaint. Also "Start->Run->iexplore" will pop up an IE for a split second, then disappear Before you continue reading, let me say again: CD Version works perfectly!
