Maybe you can try tike this: TASKKILL /F /IM "avgui.exe" /T

Rockers Team is alive and the link is here: http://www.rtwincustomize.net/web/ HTH

Inside your Autounattend.xml file, you can change all values: To: " Change To: <Path>reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\OOBE" /v MediaBootInstall /d 0 /t REG_DWORD /f</Path> More help: http://technet.micro...WindowsSettings http://www.msfn.org/...ost__p__1009846

Please attach your Autounattend.xml file for your Windows 8 x64!

It seems, YES!

Using CollectUpdates.vbs on your computer with "Microsoft Office 2007 Suite" installed and updated, all updates including SP3 are inside your folder: %temp%\Updates Enjoy!

This can happen when some programs like: HP Smart Web Printing add-on are installed and aren't compatible with IE9. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/forum/ie9-windows_7/internet-explorer-9-and-hp-smart-web-printing/f02ff56b-7b6f-e011-8dfc-68b599b31bf5?msgId=56a0ad7c-2370-e011-8dfc-68b599b31bf5 The IE9 installation ignores the IE9 language version to install and IE9 is installed with English language! You can see that on the installation log files.

Microsoft changed the URL using Genuine validation and now we can dowload files! Enjoy!

Same trouble with Windows 7. We can use this workaround explained here: http://social.micros...21-cf262d5c821a Change inside the URL "exe-validation" with "genuine-validation". Works fine for me. HTH

WPI folder must be at the root of your DVD like explained inside the manual. It's not recommended to change the path and the WPI folder!

You can use or not use {BATCH} command...But you must take care to use correctly: {BATCH} "%wpipath%\Install\sys\TU\Installx64.bat" {BATCH} "%wpipath%\Install\sys\TU\Installx32.bat" Enjoy!

Tested and I have no errors! Launch WPI 8.1.0 and select: About WPI and click on Check for update and download the new WPI 8.6.3.

You need also to add: <ImageInstall> <OSImage> <InstallFrom> <MetaData wcm:action="add"> <Key>/IMAGE/NAME</Key> <Value>Windows 7 PROFESSIONAL</Value> </MetaData> </InstallFrom> <InstallTo> <DiskID>0</DiskID> <PartitionID>2</PartitionID> </InstallTo> <WillShowUI>OnError</WillShowUI> <InstallToAvailablePartition>false</InstallToAvailablePartition> </OSImage> </ImageInstall> You can also remove the last line, or change manually the correct path: <cpi:offlineImage cpi:source="wim:c:/users/jake.hardy/desktop/en_windows_7_professional_x64_dvd_x15-65805(1)/sources/install.wim#Windows 7 PROFESSIONAL" xmlns:cpi="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:cpi" /> Example mine : <cpi:offlineImage cpi:source="wim:c:/Win7_SP1/sources/install.wim#Windows 7 ULTIMATE" xmlns:cpi="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:cpi" /> To avoid errors check your file with WSIM.

It's the link to the new WPI 8.6.3 release! From your WPI 8.6.2 you can use the update button to download the new release. Select: About WPI and check for update. Enjoy!

You can try to change the values inside your Autounattend.xml file like this: <DiskConfiguration> <WillShowUI>OnError</WillShowUI> <Disk wcm:action="add"> <DiskID>0</DiskID> <WillWipeDisk>true</WillWipeDisk> <CreatePartitions> <CreatePartition wcm:action="add"> <!-- Create the system partition--> <Order>1</Order> <Type>Primary</Type> <Size>100</Size> </CreatePartition> <!-- Create the Windows partition and fill the rest of the hard disk --> <CreatePartition wcm:action="add"> <Order>2</Order> <Type>Primary</Type> <Extend>true</Extend> </CreatePartition> </CreatePartitions> <ModifyPartitions> <!-- Modify the system partition--> <ModifyPartition wcm:action="modify"> <Order>1</Order> <PartitionID>1</PartitionID> <Format>NTFS</Format> <Label>System</Label> </ModifyPartition> <!-- Modify the Windows partition --> <ModifyPartition wcm:action="modify"> <Order>2</Order> <PartitionID>2</PartitionID> <Format>NTFS</Format> <Label>Windows</Label> <Letter>C</Letter> </ModifyPartition> </ModifyPartitions> </Disk> <Disk wcm:action="add"> <DiskID>1</DiskID> <WillWipeDisk>true</WillWipeDisk> <CreatePartitions> <!-- Create a data partition and fill the rest of the hard disk --> <CreatePartition wcm:action="add"> <Order>1</Order> <Type>Primary</Type> <Extend>true</Extend> </CreatePartition> </CreatePartitions> <ModifyPartitions> <!-- Modify the system partition--> <ModifyPartition wcm:action="modify"> <Order>1</Order> <PartitionID>1</PartitionID> <Format>NTFS</Format> <Label>Data</Label> <Letter>E</Letter> </ModifyPartition> </ModifyPartitions> </Disk> </DiskConfiguration> *Edit: It's needed to take care with these setttings and check the HDD order sequence inside the BIOS first!

Yep! I have the same CD: GRTMPOEM_EN Windows XP Professional Includes Service Pack 3 Version 2002 © 2008 Microsoft Corporation Part. N°. X14-72249 But like submix8c said: You're making WAAAAAY too much of this.

Where do you bought your Windows XP Professional SP3 ? Could you give us the link ? I remember now I bought one and I have the Windows XP Professional SP3 OEM English version 2002 (2008) with 4 discs for MUI languages!

@heldigard Many thanks for the new release! @ HerbM Have you selected the correct path ? *Edit: you can try to download and use the new GDism .NET ELDI v3.1 Portable.7z Tip: using GDism NET ELDI Poratble: write manually oscdimg.exe inside the box!

Try to update with Windows Update: http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2012/09/internet-explorer-10s-bundled-flash-leaves-users-exploitable/

Many thanks submix8c , I understand now and the OP have Windows XP Pro SP3 ! And, yes four files can be found inside I386 folder: GPEDIT.DL_ GPEDIT.HL_ GPEDIT.MS_ GPEDITW.CH_ Regards

Well! Where we can download GRTMPOEM_EN.ISO ?

Seems to me a warez!

Many thanks Bezalel for your nice scripts! I know it's an old thread but I would like to share a workaround when some trouble happen with computers using Hyper Threading technology. In fact to install Windows XP and all the files needed for the silent installation we need 8 files for Hyper Threading computers. I improved your batch file to do easely this job: GetFiles.bat attrib -s %SystemRoot%\system32\CatRoot\{F750E6C3-38EE-11D1-85E5-00C04FC295EE}\OEMBIOS.CAT makecab %SystemRoot%\system32\CatRoot\{F750E6C3-38EE-11D1-85E5-00C04FC295EE}\OEMBIOS.CAT attrib +s %SystemRoot%\system32\CatRoot\{F750E6C3-38EE-11D1-85E5-00C04FC295EE}\OEMBIOS.CAT makecab %SystemRoot%\system32\OEMBIOS.BIN makecab %SystemRoot%\system32\OEMBIOS.DAT makecab %SystemRoot%\system32\OEMBIOS.SIG echo. REM For computers with Hyperthreading technology REM Set all these 8 files inside your distribution folder I386 if exist %SystemDrive%\WINDOWS\I386 goto :next if errorlevel 1 goto :getkey echo. :next xcopy %SystemDrive%\WINDOWS\I386\"-OEMBIOS (1).DA_" /g /h /y "%~dp0" xcopy %SystemDrive%\WINDOWS\I386\"-OEMBIOS (2).SI_" /g /h /y "%~dp0" xcopy %SystemDrive%\WINDOWS\I386\"-OEMBIOS (3).BI_" /g /h /y "%~dp0" xcopy %SystemDrive%\WINDOWS\I386\"-OEMBIOS.CA_" /g /h /y "%~dp0" echo. :getkey cscript //nologo getkey.vbs > winnt.sif goto :exit :exit After we can set all these files inside our distribution folder (I386) and replace existing ones!. HTH Thanks and regards

Use this method instead...Works fine for me: http://www.msfn.org/...g-installation/ *Edit: I created an mseinstall.exe cab file without trouble!
