I'm not sure how you are making the CD with the drivers, but try to stay as close as possible to my instructions. Also make sure you have the very latest driver packs or it may not work either. And I wouldn't recommend removing anything from them or modifying anything off of the default unless absolutely necessary. The drivers should all be in the i386/system32/drivers folder I believe. And yes, during the build process, several command prompt windows should appear and do many things, but they should automatically exit by themselves, after a bit of work they do. This may take a while, but all should finish automatically and in success. How exactly are you going about building the CD/DVD? Maybe there's something I can help you catch. Thanks. Also, try not to have any spaces in your folder names (as in DON'T create the CD in your My Documents folder or something like that). Also, what version of XP CD are you using to build this and is there any A/V or Anti-Spyware software running in the background that may be conflicting with something?
