johnhc. Thanks for that information. I looked in the NLITE.IN_ file, which has a list of registry entires, but I do not know how these will shed any further light on the problem. The error no longer occurred when I changed the OEM Preinstall to disabled. The default setting is enabled. I did not install any OEM files. I assumed this was the cause of the error, but I could be wrong. All component removal appears to be OK.

Problem sorted. The error appears to be caused by the default option in OEM Preinstall (which is set to enabled) and this created a file cmdlines.txt in folder $OEM$ in the Source folder. Unattended page > General Tab > OEM Preinstall. Default option is OEM Preinstall enabled. This created the cmdlines.txt file which caused INF install failure error. With OEM Preinstall option disabled no cmdlines.txt file is created and no INF error occurs. The cmdlines.txt file reads: [Commands] "rundll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection nLite.inf,U" Attached is a copy of the cmdlines.txt file cmdlines.txt

Attached is the last session ini file. The error is almost the same as reported in the earlier post: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=109127 An error dialog box appears near the end of XP installation that reads: "INF install failure. Reason. The configuration registry key is invalid." Click OK on the error dialog box and the XP installation continues. But the installation hangs just before the login should appear. I was trying to install in virtual box to test the iso. I have not attached the inf as I do not know which it is. How do I find that out? LAST_SESSION__205501.20_16.49.38_.INI

I get this error when installing nlite XP iso on virtual box: "INF install failure. Reason. The configuration registry key is invalid." Found an earlier post about similar problem: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=109127 But I cannot work out what to do to solve the problem. If you need to see last session ini can you tell me how/where I find that.
