To make it simple, I'll just go by these instructions. http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/v...acf39e0f24e191/ I've tried variations which include using the TEXTMODE folder and TXTSETUP.OEM file, but nothing has been successful. Here is where I currently stand following the directions above. TXTSETUP.SIF [SourceDisksFiles] iastor.sys = 1,,,,,,3_,4,1 [HardwareIdsDatabase] PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2682&CC_0104 = "iastor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C3&CC_0104 = "iastor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27C6&CC_0104 = "iastor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2822&CC_0104 = "iastor" PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_282A&CC_0104 = "iastor" [SCSI.Load] iastor = iastor.sys,4 [SCSI] iastor = "Intel® ICH8M-E/ICH9M-E/5 Series SATA RAID Controller" Drivers are located in C:\XPSETUP\I386\$OEM$\$1\Drivers\Intel\SATA iaAHCI.cat iaAHCI.inf iaStor.cat iaStor.inf iaStor.sys WINNT.SIF [Unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=Yes WaitForReboot="No" OemPnPDriversPath = "Drivers\Intel\SATA" DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore TargetPath=\WINDOWS And I also did step 4 to MAKECAB and compress iastor.sys to IASTOR.SY_ into the I386 folder. During the Windows Setup you can see that the correct driver is loaded. "Intel® ICH8M-E/ICH9M-E/5 Series SATA RAID Controller" Obviously it is loading the SATA driver, otherwise I wouldn't even see the hard drive during the partition setup. After the drive formats, Windows appears to install successfully until its final reboot. That is when the BSOD appears and it just reboots. It seems that the driver is loading during the initial setup, but not being installed after the drive is formatted. When I used TEXTMODE and the TXTSETUP.OEM file, I make it to the first "Windows is Starting" during the initial setup and then get an message stating there is an error on line 1. My TXTSETUP.OEM file hasn't been modified at all and starts with the following. TXTSETUP.OEM [Disks] disk1 = "Intel® Rapid Storage Technology Driver", iaStor.sys, \ [Defaults] scsi = iaStor_8ME9ME5 So what am I missing? It works fine if I use nLite, but I want to do it this way since it is for a corporation and we are also using sysprep. This is for XP Pro SP3. After everything is done locally, I am using ImgBurn to make the CD.
