The error read something like "|.lult.the could not be read" where |.l is the greek sign for Micro. As in "uTorrent". I think you get the point... Maybe a bad interpretation of the "Ð" character ? Maybe nLite should've alerted me that "Ðefault.theme" contains an unsupported character and that it would f*ck up my install ? You'd think so, but no... Now I have to install an old SP1 and use nLite with the LAST_SESSION on the iso and try again, this time without the danm special character... Boy, what a hassle. Hope the CD is still ok. Haven't used it in 3-4 years now... I'm typing this from a Parted Magic USB install. I hope this gets fixed. Thanks.
