"It said that a new device was found (disk drive), and that it would be ready to use after the next reboot. And the installation continued normally". This is the moment, when the Windows XP Setup detects your Raid array. I have seen this popup only with nLite 1.0 Beta6, when I used the OemInfFiles method. I got this on my latest install using 1.0rc1-refer my previous post for OEMInfFiles generated by nlite 1.0rc1

The integration of the nVRaid drivers succeeded (no BSOD, no endless reboots), but after the installation of Windows XP by your nLited CD you have problems with your power management and with your sound. Rarely experienced the BSOD or endless reboots-and could not tell you why. Power Management concern was due to USB mouse "allow this device to bring computer out of standby" in device manager being checked. I never allow this and the Logitech MX518 installation checks this option by default-I forgot to uncheck-once unchecked all is good; power management now shuts all down correctly. Sorry, my error. The Audigy 2 ZS driver concern is as stated. I have just created a fresh ISO nlite1.0rc1 and will test again on Sunday with a fresh install to see if it repeats.... The new version RC1 of nLite 1.0 does not use the OemInfFiles method at all, you will not find an [OemInfFiles] section within the WINNT.SIF, if you use nLite 1.0 RC1. Meanwhile, below find the WINNT.sif file just created by nlite1.0rc1. ; Generated by nLite 1.0 RC1 [Data] Autopartition = 0 MsDosInitiated = 0 UnattendedInstall = Yes OemDrivers = OemInfFiles [unattended] UnattendMode = ProvideDefault UnattendSwitch = No OemPreinstall = Yes OemSkipEula = Yes FileSystem = * WaitForReboot = No NoWaitAfterTextMode = 1 NoWaitAfterGUIMode = 1 DriverSigningPolicy = Ignore NonDriverSigningPolicy = Ignore Hibernation = No [OemInfFiles] OemDriverFlags = 1 OemDriverPathName = "%SystemRoot%\nldrv" OemInfName = "nvatabus.inf","nvraid.inf","nf4pcie.inf","nf4sys.inf","nvsmbus.inf","nvenetfd.inf","nvnetbus.inf","atk2000.inf","snylcd53.inf","ctgame2k.inf","ctljystk.inf","ctusfsyn.inf","wdma_emu.inf","c2_26409.inf","cx_26409.inf","atixpwdm.inf","atinspxp.inf" [systemRestore] MaximumDataStorePercentOfDisk = 1 [GuiUnattended] EncryptedAdminPassword = No AdminPassword = "hepna" TimeZone = 04 OEMSkipRegional = 1 OemSkipWelcome = 1 [shell] DefaultThemesOff = Yes DefaultStartPanelOff = Yes [Components] [userData] ProductKey = ComputerName = FullName = [RegionalSettings] Language = 0409 [Networking] InstallDefaultComponents = Yes AFAIK there is still no NVATABUS.SYS, which is WHQL-certified.

The nvata.cat is found in the sata_ide folder. Also it looks for nvcoi.dll which is in the Legacy folder. I've copied both the cat and nvcoi.dll to the nvraid folder along with nvatabus.inf when creating this latest iso. Sunday I will try a fresh install to test.

"It said that a new device was found (disk drive), and that it would be ready to use after the next reboot. And the installation continued normally" No detrimental effect on anything that I can see; this has been the case for me since 1.0b6 and if you install using F6 this message will appear at this time frame in setup also.

"Please post your experience with this method - successfull or not - into this thread" Power Management no longer operates correctly 1.0rc1-sytem will not shut off the harddrives, fans, cpu etc. Only the monitor screen will turn off. The SBA2_PCDrvBeta_LB_2_08_0002 drivers do not integrate correctly-no sound, no working "Sounds and Audio Devices" console. The drivers had to be installed using Creative's setup program after install. When running 1.0rc1 initially to create a new iso, the winnt.sif must be created at the same time as the driver integration or the [OemInfFiles] section is not created and during install my system hung at file copy-had to abort. The NVATABUS.INF/SYS for ATAPI shows as WHQL-as do all the drivers- if the nforce4 drivers are installed after setup in safe mode using the main setup program, but show the opposite if integrated using nlite-6.66 or 6.67. The inf references the nvata.cat as its signature found in both SATA-XP-folders.

Created a Macromedia account and downloaded the standalone msi file from them=all is good

No kidding-may have moved on.

Created an Macromedia account and life is good. Switchless installers-awesome!

Nice and neat, but I still prefer under one thread.

Awesome, going there right now; and thanks

I disagree; keep all WMP10 slipstream in this thread

Thanks, I will try it, but, I was hoping for an installer the same as was circulated and worked for Flash 7....

Doesn't work for me. First, in GUI setup running my cmd file I uninstall the Flash 6 that comes with XP sp2 using Macromedia's uninstaller and, afterwhich, when I run install_flash_player it installs only the NPSWF32.dll and nothing else. I managed to get the cab file by cancelling Flash install from Macromedia's website after it had downloaded the cab archive. I then had to manually install the inf and register the ocx. Is there a way to do this unattended?

dude.... there is a svcpack.in_......... Gottya', did it, done and thanks

After nlite 1b6 no svcpack.inf, or DAT file, exists; so you now have 2 options: create both or let nlite integrate the fixes.

Where do you put the ca_ files; in I386\SVCPACK, or just to the I386 directory of your install DVD

right on-the new pack has now been integrated-awesome-thanks much

It works perfectly for me-XP sp2 pro. Order is: nlite, wmp10 slipstreamer v.3, your update pack, nlite the 2 wmp 9.5 sdk hotfixes. Absolutely awesome-thanks <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Please wright a name of this 2 hf. E.g. KBxxxxxx <{POST_SNAPBACK}> kb896097 and kb902344

newWMP pack updated!!! add kb896097 and kb902344 You stated this a couple'a pages previous, so I added your WMP10 pack and slipstreamed those 2 updates

It works perfectly for me-XP sp2 pro. Order is: nlite, wmp10 slipstreamer v.3, your update pack, nlite the 2 wmp 9.5 sdk hotfixes. Absolutely awesome-thanks

Thanks again-will try next fresh install Do not know about the two KB downloads for SDK 9.5 issues though.

Thanks for the heads-up, much appreciated, but, which "my newWMP pack" are you talking about: I only know of 2; this one and WMP10_Slipstreamer_V11 by Bashrat-link please! Order to use is: nlite 1.0b6 in it's entirety except the 2 MS-WMP10 updates, WMP10_Slipstreamer_v3, nlite the WMP10 updates and make your ISO

Using the WMP10_Slipstreamer_v3 does one have to still integrate the 2 MS updates below for WMP 10 or are these already included in the slipstreamer. Latest fresh install using nlite 1.0b6 and WMP10_Slipstreamer_v3 and, then, using nlite to slipstream the updates below resulted in good success. However, some anomolies started occuring with my SB audigy 2 ZS drivers-nothing serious, but, reinstalled drivers on reboot for no apparent reason. Now, everything runs like clockwork. windowsmedia10-kb888656-x86-global-enu windowsmedia10-kb892313-x86-enu

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...ts#requirements Maybe this will help all who have removed all WMP versions from their install: the above URL takes you to the Media Pack Windows XP N-KB886540 which is explained here: http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/legal/eudecision/faq.asp. The quick description: Installation of the Media Pack will ensure that software programs and Web sites that rely on Windows files not included in Windows XP N-the one stripped of all WMP for Europe-will function properly.

My System: ASUS A8N-SLI Premium, AMD FX-55 Clawhammer processor, ASUS EAX850XT PE 256mb PCIe, Audigy 2 ZS, Sony LCD SDM-HS95PS-DVI, Corsair TwinX1024LL PC3200 Professional, 4*WD 74G Raptors in RAID0 on nforce4 chipset, Lian-Li PC-75 case, 2*LG 4163 DV-RW, Panosonic floppy, Sycom UPS 800va surge supressor. I used nlite 1.0b5 to integrate SP2, all post SP2 hotfixes, the nforce 6.66 whql drivers, all reg tweaks, removals etc. and then used Bashrat the Sneaky's WMP10 integration-the small program to download is in his forum; and I am writing this reply on a fresh install with no errors; accomplished 3 days ago. Sooo, do not mix the driver packages, the latest ASUS BIOS updates for all nforce4 motherboards will only work with the 6.66 nforce4 driver set-any older cause winXP to hang on shutdown/reboot. The standard answer file I use is attached. First, no need to uninstall; reboot in safe mode and run nforce setup-all will be done automatically. Secondly, during winXP setup you must provide a path to each and every driver folder, including subfolders in the correct order, pointing to each inf as required. Text mode will not search for anything and will quit if all is not perfectly laid out in txtsetup and dosnet-nlite it, much easier.

Anyone know how to integrate nforce4 as RAID and sil3114 as SATA independant drives. I use nlite 1.0b5 to integrate all but sil3114 successfully on A8N-SLI Premium but, would like to integrate sil3114 to install a couple of external SATA HDD with the option of making them bootable if I so desire.
