Hello Thx for all the posts - been doing alot of testing. I found the solution to my problem. For some unknown reason my winntbbu.dll has to be compressed in the i386 folder - i.e "cdrom":\i386\WINNTBBU.DL_ If the uncrompressed is there I get an error. To compress the file i used CAB Maker posted by bonedaddy - THX alot for that. Altavista - thx for all your help - i hope to return really soon to see your next project.

Hello everyone Sry for the late respons, but its night in Denmark - so. @Alanoll: one word corrected ! @Altavista: Im using sp2, resedit combined with resource tuner. using cd image pro - not nlite, testing in virtual pc. I will try you fly later on today. The timestamp has changed - to the current date on my file - i'll upload it later and post the link here. Thx for the respons

Hello Altavista - great guide first of all. I have for some time now had a custom setup screen - working perfectly. But now I've come across a problem that I cant solve. From my first working copy to my current I have change the following: - Small icons on the left ( the ones showing how far you are ) - Change the tekst "Completing install --> Finishing install ) - Removed the MS junk using "strings.xml" And it works - perfectly almost that is. When windows is copying files over at the blue screen setup I get an error at 91 % ( or so ) saying that windows havent copied winntbbu.dll corretly - its not a valid windows XP system"picture" ( translate from danish" - and gives me an option: try again, skip file or exit setup. If I try again the same message appears, but if I skip the file installation continues as had there been no error. When its time for my custom setup screen to appear - It boots up with the custom file - like it should. Why do I get that this error ? I have used modifyPE and jcarles program - no effect Tried without using makecab - still the same. Sry for the long text - hope you are awake when you read this. Regards Pezzie

I'm mostly using WMP - version 9 i think

Dont know if thats the one - i'll try to remove it Thx

Hello Since creating my first CD i have had this problem, but not until now have I become tried off it. If I lets say would lik eto open a movie thne normaly you'd just tap the mouse twice and on we go - but that is not what happens here. I get a new window sayin that i must choose which program should open this file - which is ok the first time - but after 100 times it gets pretty boring. Im using XP pro and SP2 - I suspect my regtweaks file. Regards Pezzie RegTweaks.reg

I have done as followed to change my theme away fra the boring blue. First of all: Right click the screen and go to proporties. At the top you'll find several "leaves" - select the one called "themes". Here you can save your current theme. ( in this case: Pezzie.theme ) Then add the following to your winnt.sif: [Shell] CustomDefaultThemeFile = "%WinDir%\Resources\Themes\Pezzie.theme" Of course you need to make a folder under $OEM$ so you have the following structure: $OEM$ | |_$$ | |_Resourses | |_Themes ( Pezzie.theme goes here ) Hope this helps Pezzie

Without been anywhere near a solution - could it be that the diffenrence in lower and capital letter regarding oemkrnl.exe and OEMKrnl.exe ?

Hello Couldl anyone help my with this driver. I have tried /S /N /QB or something like that ( found here ) I have tried to use auto it and when i run the .aut file before i make the CD the script works ( slow but works ). But when i make the CD and test it - it dont work. Have been killing my the last few days I have attached the .aut fil as code here below: Run, SetupYukonWin.exe SetKeyDelay, 2000 Send, &Next SetKeyDelay, 2000 Send, a SetKeyDelay, 2000 Send, &Next SetKeyDelay, 2000 Send, &Next SetKeyDelay, 2000 Send, &Install SetKeyDelay, 2000 Send, &Finish N

Ok thx for the input ( have corrected it already ) Let me explain it a bit more then. After Win installation i call ( from GUIrunonce or something ) start.bat This .bat file installes a load of hotfixes and so on. At the end of the start.bat it calls to search for the cd.bat on the second cd. When it findes the second cd with the cd.bat on it should then copy the whole thing on to the harddrive. So the end of start.bat is actually a pause and then change of CD and then search for cd.bat. I ask it to copy to the harddrive due to the .rar file - it needs to be extracted before i can install it. It seems therefore the most simple way to do it and since I just started a few days ago with this whole thing - it might be the best to do for the moment. ( besides buying a DVD drive ) Thx for the fast reply Pezzie

Hello Im trying to make a second cd for my Unattended XP install cd. My first cd is pretty much made like the guide on this great page - im using a .bat called start.bat to install with. Could someone tell my if this will work: At the very end of my start.bat im writing this: ECHO. ECHO Deleting ASP.NET User Account created by .NET Framework 1.1... net user aspnet /delete ECHO. ECHO Deleting Temp Installation Files... RD /S /Q %systemdrive%\drivers RD /S /Q %systemdrive%\install EcHO. ECHO Now getting ready to install Office 2000 and Games... ECHO. ECHO If you don't want to install Office 2000 and Games ECHO press "CTRL+C" - answer Yes and press "ENTER" ECHO. ECHO If you do want to install Office 2000 and Games ECHO do the following: ECHO. ECHO 1. Insert CD 2 ( Office 2000 and Games ) ECHO . ECHO 2. Press any key to continue... Pause ECHO. ECHO Continueing with the installation... ECHO It might take a few seconds to start - please be patient... IF EXIST %systemdrive%\Windows\System32\cd.bat GOTO RUNBATCH SET CDROM2= IF EXIST D:\install\cd.bat SET CDROM2=D: IF EXIST E:\install\cd.bat SET CDROM2=E: IF EXIST F:\install\cd.bat SET CDROM2=F: IF EXIST G:\install\cd.bat SET CDROM2=G: IF EXIST H:\install\cd.bat SET CDROM2=H: IF EXIST I:\install\cd.bat SET CDROM2=I: IF EXIST J:\install\cd.bat SET CDROM2=J: IF EXIST K:\install\cd.bat SET CDROM2=K: IF EXIST L:\install\cd.bat SET CDROM2=L: IF EXIST M:\install\cd.bat SET CDROM2=M: IF EXIST N:\install\cd.bat SET CDROM2=N: IF EXIST O:\install\cd.bat SET CDROM2=O: IF NOT EXIST %CDROM2%\install\cd.bat GOTO RUNBATCH ECHO.

In my cd. bat is the following code: ECHO. ECHO Installing Wolfenstein Enemy Territory ECHO Please wait... start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Games\Wolf\Wolf.exe /S ECHO. ECHO Applying Update 1.02 ECHO Please wait... start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Games\Wolf\Wolf102.exe /S ECHO.
