Hi, I always use the windows xp service pack 3 fresh CD. My problem is new, with my old nlite build I never had any problems. I am not a new user with nlite. I know how to fix the windows installation when the administative templates are presents. I use this method: _____________________________________________________________________________ Run gpedit.msc, and go to Local Computer Policy\User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Attachment Manager and enable "Default risk level for file attachments", and then enable "Inclusion list for low risk file types" _____________________________________________________________________________ But on my gaming machine, I have an nlited installation with removed administative templates. So I am now unable to fix this problem. here my boot.ini boot.ini
