@Greenmachine that would be more difficult than i thought. It's my first steps in windows world lol I passed the first step: installing the patches. Here are a list of patches sorted by xcreate. I added a directory SVC-OPK for directxopk because it doesn't need any options and should be launched before 825116 patch (directx TV patch). But i' cannot modify uxtheme.dll during the installation even at the launch of the [commands] section. i'll try with an inf file and hope it will do a copy during the reboot. (i'm not sure about the code ) uxtheme.dll is contained in a cab file to make it more difficult. cmdlines.txt -------------- [Commands] "rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 128 \$1\Apps\Windows\XPTheme.inf" XPTheme.inf --------------- [Version] signature="$Windows NT$" [DefaultInstall] CopyFiles = CopyFilesSec, CopyToCacheSec AddReg = Theme.AddRegSec [Theme.AddRegSec] HKLM,"%Themes%","CustomInstallTheme",0x00020000,"%Systemroot%\Resources\Themes\BeOS.theme" HKCU,"%Themes%\LastTheme","ThemeFile",0x00020000,"%Systemroot%\Resources\Themes\BeOS.theme" HKCU,"%Themes%\LastTheme","Wallpaper",0x00020000,"%SystemRoot%\web\wallpaper\TotalEmmersion.jpg" [CopyFilesSec] uxtheme.dll,,uxtheme.ori,8 [CopyToCacheSec] uxtheme.dll,,,4 [SourceDisksNames] 1 = "XPTheme","XPTheme.cab",,\Apps\Windows,0x10 [SourceDisksFiles] uxtheme.dll = 1 [DestinationDirs] CopyFilesSec=16430 CopyToCacheSec=16430,dllcache [Strings] Themes="Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes" SVCPACK.INF ---------------- [Version] Signature="$Windows NT$" MajorVersion=5 MinorVersion=1 BuildNumber=2600 [SetupData] CatalogSubDir="\i386\svcpack" [SetupHotfixesToRun] 1365VidChng.exe 640x480x32@85 -q DOTNETFX.EXE /Q:U /R:N MBSA-FR.EXE /Q:U /R:N MDAC.EXE /Q:U /R:N MM20FRA.EXE /Q:U /R:N MPSETUP.EXE /Q:U /R:N MSJA3809.EXE /Q:U /R:N MSJA3810.EXE /Q:U /R:N MSXML3FR.EXE /Q:U /R:N MSXML3SP.EXE /Q:U /R:N MSXMLFRA.EXE /Q:U /R:N SETUP.EXE /Q:U /R:N TWEAKUI.EXE /Q:U /R:N DX9NTOPK.EXE 322011.EXE /U /O /N /Z 327979.EXE /U /O /N /Z 810217.EXE /U /O /N /Z 811114.EXE /U /O /N /Z 811630.EXE /U /O /N /Z 814995.EXE /U /O /N /Z 815021.EXE /U /O /N /Z 820291.EXE /U /O /N /Z 821253.EXE /U /O /N /Z 822603.EXE /U /O /N /Z 823182.EXE /U /O /N /Z 824105.EXE /U /O /N /Z 824141.EXE /U /O /N /Z 825116.EXE /U /O /N /Z 825119.EXE /U /O /N /Z 826939.EXE /U /O /N /Z 826942.EXE /U /O /N /Z 828026.EXE /U /O /N /Z 828028.EXE /U /O /N /Z 828035.EXE /U /O /N /Z 828741.EXE /U /O /N /Z 829558.EXE /U /O /N /Z 833998.EXE /U /O /N /Z 835732.EXE /U /O /N /Z 837001.EXE /U /O /N /Z 837272.EXE /U /O /N /Z 840374.EXE /U /O /N /Z JS56NFR.EXE /Q:U /R:N Q831167.EXE /Q:U /R:N Q832894.EXE /Q:U /R:N KB837009.EXE /Q:U /R:N MSXML26.EXE /Q:U /R:N MSXML30.EXE /Q:U /R:N MSXML40.EXE /Q:U /R:N QCHAIN.EXE [ProductCatalogsToInstall] JS56NFR.CAT KB810217.CAT KB815021.CAT KB820291.CAT KB821253.CAT KB822603.CAT KB823182.CAT KB824105.CAT KB824141.CAT KB825116.CAT KB825119.CAT KB826939.CAT KB826942.CAT KB828028.CAT KB828035.CAT KB828741.CAT KB829558.CAT KB833998.CAT KB835732.CAT KB837001.CAT KB837272.CAT KB840374.CAT Q322011.CAT Q327979.CAT Q811114.CAT Q811630.CAT Q814995.CAT Q815021.CAT Q828026.CAT Q831167.CAT Q832483_271_WINXP.CAT Q832483_271_WINXPX.CAT Q832894.CAT @+ Jj
