Sorry bout the fella. (just spotted the attach bit....) Yeah, no changes at this stage, I just wanted the bugger to work. But it has failed. I take on board what you're saying about Vista, and it's 64bit too, so no real idea there to be honest. Back to drawing board I think. Will trawl about in MCT site to see if there is anything (though I think we've been through that to no avail.

Hey guys, yip, nLite. And I'll just add that session thing in now. What I am trying to achieve (MCT by the way) is to produce a sysprepped ISO image for a colleague who is on leave at the mo. He is training a VMWare course next week, and it requires a client and server ISO image, all ready to go. This is the file. Sorry but yesterday was my first time playing with nLite.

So what's happening is this. I get through to the i386 folder, then make the necessary changes, and then explore, modify the winnt.sif file, all good so far. This is what I did for my WinXP ISO too, and that worked. BUT when Win2k3 server goes through the initial stages it keeps requesting of me, the old Win2K server or NT 4.0 CD Rom to prove upgrade ability. But this is all being done from brand spanking, not Upgrade only source files. Help? Cheers, Malc.
