  1. Yes, I never run into problems doing it that way. But personally I prefer post setup updates via runonce.
  2. Yeah, that the right integration, but don't thing it fix your driver problem.
  3. Thanks for beta 4. Works great! You should add SupportedOS Id for Windows 8 to StartIsBack_setup.exe and StartIsBackCfg.exe
  4. Hmm, either the right driver is not integrated or not loaded for some reason. Are you sure you have the correct driver for the controller? Well these packs aren't legal at all and don't integrate the way thought by MS. It's up to you if you trust the the authors of these packs and use them. WinNTSetup can't fully handle this integration and since no time, properly never will.
  5. @alacran Thanks, I'll fix string 014 in next version. 166 is only thought for win7, the usbboot checkbox has no effect on win8 installs. @cy06 Great, thanks for translating @laddanator At what state of setup does the BSoD occurs (TXTMODE or GUIMODE) ? Does it work if you boot it from CD/DVD? Actually there should be no problem with already slipstreamed Driver Packs, but there could be a version conflict with a newer or older driver.
  6. @alacran thanks for translation I've found the problem with VHD creation strings, should be fixed in 2.3.1.2. @Atari800XL absolutely no problem, have found quite some more with Word 2007 new language.ini is in previous link and built in 2.3.1.2
  7. Hi alacran, just change this language.ini as you like and put in the same folder. 2.3.1.1 is now available with better VHD label
  8. Hi alacran, Win7 VHD is just the drive label and can be changed without problem whenever the VHD is mounted. But your right is a bit confusing now with Windows 8. Guess the best is if I change the label to the user selected filename
  9. Well, the old copy used SHFileOperation, practically windows default for every file copy. Somehow it's kinda slow, especially for copying many files. Also it did not give me any infos for the progress bar, therefor unnecessary disk access was needed. So i had to write my own tool, that just populate a LinkedList with all files/folders and than starts coping. With fully cached files the copying is twice as fast for many files and in default (uncached) case it still should be noticeable faster. @cy06 You'r welcome
  10. Update: Version 2.3.1.0 - added "Cancel Button" - XP Setup now faster, due to new file copy engine - added tweak to avoid silly Windows 8 first logon animation - fixed vhd creation (crash on Chinese Windows 8) - fixed driver integration with trailing back slash - slightly adjusted active primary detecting
  11. Yes only this missing file was cause all trouble I wonder about that, too.Well, only Microsoft knows the reason
  12. Yes, this would require quite some modifications. But the download for these files would not be smaller than 600 MB, just for x86 files. There is still the idea to reverse compression with tiny delta patches, which could reduce required download very much. But the legal situation is unclear
  13. Hi Scampy82, I found it! Your WinPE is missing ntmarta.dll in \Windows\system32 folder Also your WinPE don't show hidden and supper hidden files.
  14. Yes, that could help. Please sent me details via PM.
  15. Yes, it is designed to work under WinPE. No idea yet, at least an error message should be displayed, if there is any problem with bootmgr or Boot\*.* files creation. actually not, bootmgr should be created on the partition you selected. It's difficult to say, which disk is the "wanted" boot disk as the program is mostly use from WinPE or Portable Windows.Also as you noticed Windows detects different between IDE, SATA, USB, ... I'll try to improve it.
  16. hmm, strange either Chinese ANSI and OEM codepage can have different amount of characters or Stringlen() eats some Please try v 2.3.0.2
  17. Thanks, it seem this only occurs with some unicode languages. It's properly a bug in the text formating. I'll download the 90 days win8 ZH-CN trail version and take a look at it.
  18. That's too much informations. The VHD creation is just a wrapper for windows' diskpart.exe. Anyway there should be some error printed in the black window. Also WinNTSetup should give back the error code and it's description.
  19. Hi Scampy82, currently it's not possible, but I add a Cancel Button in the next version.
  20. hmm, there should be success or failed message for every *.inf file found in L:\ and it's subfolders. like this: EDIT: Okay there is a bug, the trailing \ cause the trouble
  21. No adding drivers for Win7 and later makes use of dism /add-driver ... and for XP files are copyied to C:\DRV and all sub dirs of it are added to registry. If correctly added to driver store by dism your display driver should be installed during setup. Winntsetup.log is created in the new Windows dir. It should log if a driver is added or if an error occured.
  22. Well, there is no real way to detect a "system" partition. Until Vista properly nobody has hidden his active partition, so i don't think the boot partition should be hidden by winntsetup in general. Currently it checks if the drive label is called ""system reserved" and if the partition is smaller than 1 GB. If both true it will be hidden for the new installation. Personally, I would suggest the change the partition id with diskparts setid command. This way, any windows will never assign a drive letter to it @lama & komital I don't plan to add anymore tweaks to it. It's a simple setup tool not a tuning and tweaking suite It should be possible to get most of these things done with the "Runafter" switch.
  23. Hmm, that really strange, but remember I also had a funny board that act often different. It often switched between USB 1.0 and 1.1 Speed, even with same USB disk. On a cold boot, it never was able to boot from USB. Guess most problems are related to stupid BIOS, Lately had one machine that could not boot an XP boot sector on a 2K aligned partition. After changing some BIOS settings it worked.
  24. @Tihiy How about adding 7 shell32.dll.mui to explorer7 folder and load pin/unpin text from it? 2 things I've noticed while using explorer7 : 1 - The MRU programs and the start menu pinned list missing the pin/unpin text in context menu 2 - The "nice" closing of explorer doesn't work, the process remains in memory
