[WinNTSetup v5.3.5]

Hirens BCD is Warez and we don't discuss nor support this here.

With vague, I mean what the exact error text that shown?

 

Direct install from CD is very different from the setup WinNTSetup does.

Oh, thats why...

Well it literally said "26" (???) which is weird. any clue why is says that?

 

EDIT: After minutes of Experiencing, I found a FIX! The CD I use is Multi language, and had different install folders with language names in them(Ex. ENU(English US)). So I had to link WinNTSetup to them, and it found the right XP edition! So now I have no errors...

Yeah, you not alone with this problem.

The Windows Update Service is besides Windows Installer, WMI, .Net Framework, Component System and Driver Store,

one of the most pathetic implementations in Windows, one I can think of.

 

However after installing KB3083710 and KB3102810 the initial search takes less than an 30 minutes here,

what's okay for me, creating new sysprep images every couple of month.

First, don't don't use Hirens BCD!

Second, msgbox with "26", it to vague

 

For your recovery DVD: if it detects the edition wrong it's certainly not good sign.

 

Why not use hirens?

And the msgbox with 26 means vague?? (Sorry if I didn't understand right, I'm dumb)

Hmm, nothing wrong with the CD itself, as it works for virtualbox when installing directly from it....

I tried using this in Hiren's BCD and got an error msgbox with "26" in it.

What does that mean? is it an Error code?

 

I use a Windows XP CD, more specificly an MSI Recovery DVD with XP Home SP3, but for some reason WinNT detects it as XP Professional SP3...

Is my CD incompatible with WinNTSetup?
