    BWAHAHAHAH!!! I've repeatedly worked on my Brothers' Dim4600... I have EVERYTHING on my HDD...

    1.) I have NO CLUE what your ORIGINAL Video Card is. On the back, there SHOULD be a Service Tag Number. This will allow me to find SPECIFICALLY what your PC had WHEN NEW! If anything has changed (mainly the Video Card, and possibly otheers Cards added). this COULD change, but the BASICS should remain the same. STANDARD (AFAIK) is an IDE/PATA Hard Disk unless you put a SATA in it.

    2.)I guess I should also ask... Do you have the Restore CD's? These PC's usually come with two hidden Restore-To-Factory Partitions. More "magic" may be need to clean this up.

    3.)Please note that the Chipset Download you did is "kind of" old. It appears to have an 865-series Chipset (specifically 82865PE). Here is the Intel website for 865-series.

    You will need the Chipset, Sound, Network, and Video (and any other add-in cards).

    Please provide information requested so we can supply more (specific) assistance.

    Hmmm... When you press "F12" when you first turn it on you SHOULD get a "Boot Selection" Screen. By selecting "Dell Utility" and booting to it you SHOULD get to the Utility Partition if it exists, which would imply that the Hidden Partitions still exist!

    1.) I Read a post on Cnet.com that was not good to post service tag on internet. I will search for information,thank you.

    2.) Ghost partition is gone,there was to many outdate software and anti-virus and I Have reformatted since then within last nlite cd creation. Yes I have reinstall cd.

    3. ) What is advantage to newer driver ? I get from dell site all my drivers.

    Im making new cd creation and adding June 3rd update and driver section because it so easy and I do to for one driver chipset that is .exe. Nlite older guide say to "- If your drivers are only in the .exe format you can sometimes extract them with Winzip, Powerarchiver, Winrar ... " so I use free download winrar and do extraction but still no .INF extension.

    I see that and find data.cab1 and data cab2 so I did extraction and I see INF in DATA.CAB 1 and nothing in data.cab 2.

    Question,

    Do I add this INF to nlite and that is it ? There are many infs in data cab 1.

    Edit to my post. I used universal extractorfor data.cab extraction,winrar powerarchiver would not extraction.

    The "Unattended" you have linked to is mostly for Manually doing things and a Tutorial on the various items related to Unattended

    This gives nLite screenshots that directly relate to the Unattended link. It additionally gives Downloads to be used with nLite.

    RyanVM Integrator is another Integration tool.

    Finally, there is (was) a tool here called HFSLIP. Where it can be downloaded I have no clue as the HFSLIP website is gone. It can, however, be found by google from, e.g., SoftPedia (safe downloads). Member Mim0 has a website that utilizes it.

    Each method works differently than another and features (what each can or cannot do) are different.

    DriverPacks are FULL Driver Packages. It's up to you to get what you need based on your Hardware.

    It's really up to YOU which method is to be used for YOUR purposes. Pick one and when you have a problem doing something (do NOT ask for a "tutorial" - it won't happen) then make a Topic in that sub-forum.

    1 - HFSLIP subforum.

    2 - nLite subforum.

    3 - RyanVM is NOT on MSFN - ask questions about it and problems with it on their website. You COULD try for help here, but I'm not sure how much you'll get.

    4 - The Unattended link you already know about. This is generally where you ask for help on specifics of Unattended.

    5 - Also note that there's an Add-Ons subforum specifically for nLite. (unsure if will work with HFSLIP)

    note - you copied your post from the other topic and it hosed this link. This is the link...

    I did to the edit button and fixed the links in previous post.

    I investigating and decided to use nlite and it was so easy. I used "Windows XP Post SP3 High-Priority Updates for nLite" on website tutorial you gave me link to and it was very good updater,so easy too.

    I put in source (XPCD) IE8 and did adjustment in footnote 4 5 6 and put in the service pack 3 beforehand and made image to burn. I used application called image burn and install and updated only 2 updates,very good.

    Im new here,hello. What is best way for unattended Windows install ? I reed tutorial about unattended install at here http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/view/web/1/ and I goto download nlite application and reed so very easy and I see about driverpacks here http://driverpacks.net/docs/beginners-guide-windows-xp and it read,

    1.RyanVM Integrator

    2.nLite

    3.DriverPacks BASE

    Which is best way so that I do correctly, thank you.

    My question received answer from Username submix8c

    First, it's a matter of opinion. Use what method/tool you like best.

    I do not know what I like best because I am at beginner User level on http://unattended.ms....xp/view/web/1/ and have only downloaded nlite tool. I would like to know beforehand by experience user which integrator works best way. I have created my windows xp source (XPCD) and downloaded nlite tool.

    No experience with RyanVM integrator.

    Edit by me for fix links.

    First, it's a matter of opinion. Use what method/tool you like best.

    Second, you have hijacked this Topic. Start your own in the appropriate subforum.

    Third, look at the top/right of every page on MSFN - there's a "Gear" next to "Search" box - clock on it and be surprised.

    My much apologies,I Will start my topic elsewhere.
