I went back and ran an instalation disk that worked prior and even that started to have the disk errors after installing. So I tried doing an instatlian with the repartition line and it worked fine. Thanks for all the help

ok I made another ISO file using the same XPCD without the repartition line and it had the chk dsk problem. I dont know how some of those files may have gotten corrupted, antivirus hasnt picked anything up, but that seemed to be it. So Im deleting the folder and crating a new XPCD folder and going to copy over the files from the original instal CD, hope that solves it. thanks for your help

these are real life install. Im using that same XPCD folder for all the installs the only change is the repartion=yes line then I use the CDimage_pro utility from the guides to create the iso Ive tried making multiiple disks with the repartition line included and they each have the exact same issue

also when check disk start it sarts with lines File record segment 4076-4079 is unreadable

Would appreciate any help on this. the.. [unattended] Repartition=Yes line seems to be a bit buggy for me. Without this line in the winnt.sif the unattended install goes fine after I select the partition and formating. With that line included the install seems to go fine until XP sarts up for the first time. XP then proceed to run ChkDsk and goes on saing it is recovering orphaned files and then logs into the administrator account. Again the only difference in the two install results above is the repartistion=yes line here is my winnt.sif ;SetupMgrTag [Data] AutoPartition=1 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes" [unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended UnattendSwitch=yes Repartition=Yes OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=No TargetPath=\WINDOWS [GuiUnattended] AdminPassword=* EncryptedAdminPassword=NO OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=40 OemSkipWelcome=1 [userData] ProductID=xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx FullName="User" OrgName="" ComputerName=comp [TapiLocation] CountryCode=1 AreaCode=317 [identification] JoinWorkgroup=WORKGROUP [Networking] InstallDefaultComponents=Yes
