1- ok 2- Skip OOBE isn't ticked 3- ok 4 - Nothing selected for removal, but batt.dll and start menu items are still missing. Also, Windows Installer Service not set to automatic. See this attachment. 5- No, because the driver installs fine when the Dell OS disc is used, and .Net doesn't show in add/remove programs after installing OS from Dell disk. Also, I was unable to manually integrate the drivers using the above instructions. Intel's drivers are too different from those in the example for me to correctly follow (I'm dumb). LAST SESSION.INI

Correct, which makes it difficult for me to blame it. Other differences using nLite's image: - different desktop background and theme -GUI setup which usually asks to configure automatic updates and enter a user name is skipped. - Administrator password required to log in - several items missing from start menu (remote desktop and others) - Attempting to run Dell's driver installer for the netbook's DW 1520 wireless card gives an error that the hardware could not be found. I'll definitely try this as it might accomplish my mission, but getting nLite to behave would save me a lot more time in the future.

Hello, I'd like to slipstream Intel's AHCI drivers using a Dell XP Pro x86 SP3 reinstallation disc for the source. I've left all nLite options at default except to slipstream the AHCI driver and create the bootable .iso. I used this forums instructions for systems with SSD's (the RST textmode driver v10.1.0.1008). No errors or issues during OS install, but on first boot "Windows could not load the installer for battery...". I fixed that by moving batt.dll from my OS source directory to windows\system32 and rebooting. Next, while attemting to run the installer for the Dell's network adapter drivers I get "The Windows installer service could not be accessed". Fixed it by starting the "Windows Installer" service which wasn't running. Bottom line, it sure doesn't look like everything with Dell's install was left alone except for the AHCI driver I added. It looks like nLite changed several other things. Is there a way to leave EVERYTHING alone except for the AHCI drivers? I'd expect that to yield a more stable system. Target system is a Dell Latitude 2110 netbook with a N470 Atom processor, which I think means an ICH7. I don't have any of these issues when the OS is installed directly from the CD. Thanks for any help! Last Session.ini
