Hi, I'm actually working on a custom XP SP3 installation, based on a msdn version. My goal is to write scripts to remove unwanted components, then to create a new master of the XP SP3 cd I can't use nlite, and I can use only batch scripts. here is a sample of a script I wrote to remove games components : @echo off REM Configuration file : REM - games.inf REM REM External files : REM - layout.inf REM - txtsetup REM - dosnet.inf REM - sysoc.inf (games.inf) REM - hivesft.inf REM - hiveusd.inf REM REM Modules : REM - Freecell REM - Hearts REM - Minesweeper REM - Solitaire REM - Spider set backupDir="..\Backup ISO files" set componentDir="Games" set i386Dir="..\..\cd\i386" set hiveUSDRef="Games.hiveusd" set hiveSFTRef="Games.hivesft" if not exist %backupDir% mkdir %backupDir% if not exist %backupDir%\%componentDir% mkdir %backupDir%\%componentDir% echo * Backup files : move %i386Dir%\games.in_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% echo - Freecell move %i386Dir%\freecell.ex_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% move %i386Dir%\freecell.ch_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% move %i386Dir%\freecell.hl_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% move %i386Dir%\freecell.cn_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% echo - Hearts move %i386Dir%\mshearts.ex_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% move %i386Dir%\mshearts.ch_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% move %i386Dir%\mshearts.cn_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% move %i386Dir%\mshearts.hl_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% echo - Minesweeper move %i386Dir%\winmine.ex_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% move %i386Dir%\winmine.ch_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% move %i386Dir%\winmine.hl_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% move %i386Dir%\winmine.cn_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% echo - Solitaire move %i386Dir%\sol.ex_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% move %i386Dir%\sol.ch_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% move %i386Dir%\sol.hl_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% echo - Spider move %i386Dir%\spider.ex_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% move %i386Dir%\spider.ch_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% move %i386Dir%\spider.hl_ %backupDir%\%componentDir% echo * Generating Scripts echo games.inf>> txtsetup.log REM Freecell echo freecell.exe>> txtsetup.log echo freecell.chm>> txtsetup.log echo freecell.hlp>> txtsetup.log echo freecell.cnt>> txtsetup.log REM Hearts echo mshearts.exe>> txtsetup.log echo mshearts.chm>> txtsetup.log echo mshearts.cnt>> txtsetup.log echo mshearts.hlp>> txtsetup.log REM Minesweeper echo winmine.exe>> txtsetup.log echo winmine.chm>> txtsetup.log echo winmine.hlp>> txtsetup.log echo winmine.cnt>> txtsetup.log REM Spider echo sol.exe>> txtsetup.log echo sol.chm>> txtsetup.log echo sol.hlp>> txtsetup.log echo spider.exe>> txtsetup.log echo spider.chm>> txtsetup.log echo spider.hlp>> txtsetup.log echo * Updating configuration files : echo - txtsetup.sif findstr /v /b /i /g:txtsetup.log %i386Dir%\TXTSETUP.SIF > TXTSETUP.SIF move TXTSETUP.SIF %i386Dir%\TXTSETUP.SIF echo - dosnet.inf FOR /F %%G IN (txtsetup.log) DO @echo d1,%%G>> dosnet.log findstr /v /b /i /g:dosnet.log %i386Dir%\dosnet.inf > dosnet.inf move dosnet.inf %i386Dir%\dosnet.inf del dosnet.log echo - layout.inf findstr /v /b /i /g:txtsetup.log %i386Dir%\layout.inf > layout.inf move layout.inf %i386Dir%\layout.inf del txtsetup.log echo - sysoc.inf @expand -r %i386Dir%\sysoc.in_ type %i386Dir%\sysoc.inf > %i386Dir%\sysoc.inf.ansi findstr /v /i /c:",games.inf," %i386Dir%\sysoc.inf.ansi > sysoc.inf move sysoc.inf %i386Dir%\sysoc.inf @makecab %i386Dir%\sysoc.inf %i386Dir%\sysoc.in_ del %i386Dir%\sysoc.inf.ansi del %i386Dir%\sysoc.inf echo - hivesft.inf type %i386Dir%\HIVESFT.INF > HIVESFT.INF.ansi findstr /v /i /L /g:%hiveSFTRef% HIVESFT.INF.ansi > HIVESFT.INF.ansi.tmp cmd /u /c type HIVESFT.INF.ansi.tmp > %i386Dir%\HIVESFT.INF del HIVESFT.INF.ansi del HIVESFT.INF.ansi.tmp echo - hiveusd.inf type %i386Dir%\HIVEUSD.INF > HIVEUSD.INF.ansi findstr /v /i /L /g:%hiveUSDRef% HIVEUSD.INF.ansi > HIVEUSD.INF.ansi.tmp cmd /u /c type HIVEUSD.INF.ansi.tmp > %i386Dir%\HIVEUSD.INF del HIVEUSD.INF.ansi del HIVEUSD.INF.ansi.tmp After removing these files, I edit the following files, to remove the '_x' parameter on the layout.inf line : - TXTSETUP.SIF - LAYOUT.INF Then I replace setupapi.dl_ with a patched version, using this tuto : http://www.vorck.com/windows/edit-setupapi.html I burn the image, but the installation process isn't the same. On my custom install, I install my specific drivers, then I tell the system to don't install non signed drivers. With the modification I made, the system can't install audio/videos codecs, video drivers, ... If someone has an idea. Thanks in advance
