Greetings one and all! For xp-32 os install on ssd, for correct alignment, offset must be set to 64 instead of the default sector which is set at offset 63. Does anyone know how to create a boot sector file set at 64 offset and to link that file to nLite Bootable ISO screen under "custom boot sector"? I quote the recomendation of nLite at that option, "default is a boot sector for all windows versions which will initiate normal boot with i386/amd64 folder. However if you have your own boot menu and a boot sector which goes with it, select it with the custom option." I have patitioned the ssd (ocz 30gb vertex) offset 64 using diskpart and dispar command line utilities. the partitions are set fine, but upon xp install, it usually wants to format the partition, which is fine as the partition is correctly aligned at 64, instead of xp default of 63. my concern is that this menu option, if left to default setting, will re-align the partition boot sector to 63 offset... does anyone here know what i am talking about? thank you so much for your time to read this, to especially to those of you who provide answers or shed light on how to use this custom function to keep the ssd partition aligned at 64 offset, instead of teh default 63 offset... jeff_michigan

crosby stills nash and young douglas spotted eagle fleetwood mac on Pandora...create your own radio station (us only) with pandora.. be advised, there is no way to equalize the stream...but who cares...it's your music station the way you want it.. you create the play list, delete what you do not want or are tired of...the algorithm does the rest..free with ads, 32 buck per years 24/7 your music no addss...the hottest thing around, IMHO... jeff_michigan..
