Let me just say - OMG. Here i was, 6 hours trying to get that s*** to work using a CD - when (thanks to johnhc) i found out that you could use a USB to do it, and what do you know? IT WORKS! And took me less than 10 minutes! If you have any trouble doing this and want an easier way, i recommend you try doing it over the USB. go here Thanks to everyone that worked so hard on those projects! Thanks to all that helped!!

Yes, i can run my computer from a USB Stick. I am burning my CD with ImgBurn, and i am booting my CD by changing my BIOS settings, making boot priority to my CD Drive. And yes, my original CD does load, but stops when it cant find my HDD, and i know for a faqt my HDD isnt damaged because i loaded my computer up with a LiveUSB in linux and checked it. And 2 minutes and ill have tested my new .ISO give me a second and ill get back to you

When i run the ISO on the virtualbox it starts loading and goes to the intallations part, when i put it in the laptop, it doesnt even start, the first thing i get is OS Not found - doesnt even ask me to hit any key to continue booting the CD, nothing, just the OS not found error, and ill try to make a new installation with ONLY the sata drivers. Thanks, btw, is there a way to put the whole thing on a USB instead of a disk?

Alright, i am going to do that, give me 5 minutes, btw, should i just try to add my SATA drivers this time? because i download the VirtualBox and ran my old .iso and it worked. And btw, i have a limited CD Supply, so i hope i get this one right, so i want to play it safe, would it help to remove all drivers but the SATA ones?

Hey everyone, first off id like to say that nLite ROCKS! if ofcourse i could get it to work. Alright, well lets get to it then; My Laptop, is lacking the SATA drives, so when i get prompted to reinstall, it wont detect my HDD. Laptop Specs: Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook S7110 Hard Drive is a Seagate momentus 5400.3 80GB OS Windows XP Pro SP2 (Legit) Intel 1.6ghz Dual Core Anywho, i have succefully made an nLite boot CD with my installation on it etc, etc - but when i get down to it, it just gives me the following error (Operating System not found) at the black startup screen, and just stays there. At the moment my CD looks like this: Is there something wrong? maybe i am missing some boot files? Anyways, i have added my HDD Sata drives to the installation package, just if you were wondering, and i did also redo the entire process, and i did also burn the .iso file on a slower speed. Any other ideas? thanks all! PS. I did look in the forum for someone with a similar problem, but everyone elses were different error codes and-or solutions that i already tried, but anything is welcome!!!! PS2.
