OK, I am going to try to extract the Driver.CAB from nLite that includes the drivers for my Alienware Aurora m7700 laptop and add them in to a new folder HFEXPERT\DRIVERCAB and see how it works. The overall goal is to get a lean secure platform for testing and development of different platforms through VM. Eventually I plan on using FDV's file set for W2K3 server as the base OS but for now I am trying to get familiar with HFSLIP, seems really awesome.

OK, so when you say add/replace you mean update existing? or can you actually add new?

Searched for info on the HFEXPERT\DRIVERCAB folder. Couldn't find any? Do you have a link? OK, this link http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...02&hl=DRIVERCAB Oleg II recommends creating a HFDRV folder in HFSLIP directory to add your drivers there. one of your posts: Added DRIVERCAB feature. This is intended to replace existing files in the DRIVER.CAB file. Create the folder DRIVERCAB inside HFEXPERT and place your files in there. This only works with merging options A, B and C. Files in SP*.CAB and newer driver binaries are also replaced. here you say this is to replace existing files? I am confused, which method do I start with?

Has anyone used nLite to create a updated driver.cab file to add specific drivers to a build and incorporated that with HFSLIP? Is it possible or is there a better or preferred method?

Sorry for the delay. No luck so far, it still will not show up. Am trying again tonight.

Ok, I keep seeing references to T12, T13, etc. I have searched for a reference to these during install and haven't had any luck. Does anyone have a link or reference? It sure would be nice.

From another post ( In the i386 folder the following files exist: hivecls.inf -- creates the settings in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes (HKCR) hivedef.inf -- creates the settings in HKU\.DEFAULT -- also creates the settings for the default user profile hivesft.inf -- creates the settings in HKLM\SOFTWARE hivesys.inf -- creates the settings in HKLM\SYSTEM ) (editing these prior to build sets the mods at OS install) under hivedef.inf the setting: HKCU,"Control Panel\Keyboard","InitialKeyboardIndicators",0x00000002,"0x80000000" HKCU,"Control Panel\Keyboard" - Regisrty Path InitialKeyboardIndicators - Value Name 0x00000002 - I am guessing this is the Data Type. (This is what I am trying to determine, a list indicating the Type) 0x80000000 - Value for the Value Name (0x20000000 turns NumLock on by default in the above string) Does anyone have a reference for this?

Cool, downloaded the new release and will give it a try tonight

I have downloaded the UPHClean-Setup.msi and placed it in the HF folder also MSICabExtract.exe and MSICabExtract.txt are in the HFTOOLS folder. After running HFSLIP_60401.CMD the SOURCESS i386 folder has UPHClean.MSI (not spelled right due to being elsewhere from work space). After installing HFSLIP XP Pro ISO the UserProfile Cleanup service nor the Folder under Program Files directory exists. Anyone else experience this?

Reading the HFSLIP guides, where would you put the modified basicwks.inf? In the FIX folder or the HFSVPK folder?

Is it possible to edit the security templates prior to OS install to make a few minor adjustments, specifically the “setup security.inf” template and include them in the build?

You might want to start with a system that does not have the details view selected. Create a new profile, logon and open explorer. Log off, logon with a admin profile load the NTUSER.DAT registry hive key of the new profile and take a snapshot of it. Unload the hive, log off and logon with the new profile make the changes and log off. Log back in with the admin profile and reload the NTUSER.DAT hive and take a snapshot of it. On comparing the two snapshots you should find the change. I am going to try this later and hopefully get the answer.
