what happens when you install the drivers, without uninstalling the old ones. does it not just overwrite the older drivers?

James you are absolutely right, its just that i spent all my money on a new processor, motherboard, and ram. I only have 3 CD-r left so my pollution shouldn't go too much further. However, i would much rather burn the ISO image to a flash drive and boot from that. Is that possible??? I connect to the internet via Roadrunner high speed 10/100. Additionally I have no issues what so ever when I use the XP CD that came with my computer to install windows. I have tried both installing the drivers with nLite and leaving the drivers off nLite and installing them after XP is set up, neither of which have worked. Additionally I have tried using ONLY the safe presets in the nLite drop down, but with no luck. I don't think I deleted any services, I only disabled them. and made sure to set DHCP to automatic. Okay, I'll try this out. It's been a while since I've done this, I don't remember how. ...run... ipconfig... ping yahoo? I don't know what HW is... I haven't ever done anything with a virtual system before... what does this entail? Thanks Rob

My base OS is from the CD that came with my Dell 3 years ago (OEM) it has SP2 on it. I slipstreamed SP3 and used RVMUpdatePackSP3_1.0.0a.7z. dunno what you mean by nLited my source more than once... if you mean have i used the same XP cd on more than one image, yes i have. If you mean have i made and image from my XP cd and then made an image from that, no i haven't. i attached file as requested, thank you John for your help. thanks Rob Last_Session.ini

I had the same board(just upraded 3 days ago) , but i didnt have the same issue as you. I was able to get on the drivers on ASUS installALL to my nLite bootable cd, and install them with no problem. However i had many other issues, mostly with the MOBO itself, which is why i bought a new one. For one, with the ethernet drivers and even with NAM installed i couldnt get the internet to work. This, however, is a problem i am still having with my new board. sorry to spam your thread with my own issues. Just as a recommendation, try updating the bios to the newest version, the bios has a built in utillity <ez flash 2 utillity>. Download latest bios from ASUS website, save to flash drive, floppy or whatever and run the flash utillity. This did solve a few of my problems.

First of all I want to say I am kind of a noob at least as far as with using nLite. Now the problem I am having is that when I make an nLite reformat disk, and reformat, I CANNOT CONNECT to the internet (have made 7+ disks). Now I want to clarify the noob part, I'm not stupid, I installed all the drivers, made sure I didn't delete any essential components. nLite is frickin awesome, But I'm lost please please help me. I have no idea what I am doing wrong. I searched the forum and googled around but couldn't find anything. Thanks Rob
