  1. i usually dont bother abt rest of the files in sources.

    i only copy boot.wim and install.wim to sources folder from DVD

    vlite never complained me abt missing files; neither problems from them

    b4 and after vlitng only those two files in sources dir, no extrafiles

  2. nuhi, all the files EXCEPT boot.wim and install.wim in sources folder.

    those files are for running setup.exe within windows (upgrade or custom install).

    just look at the #2 of boot.wim, it has all these files in sources dir in the wim ( which will be loaded to ram during DVD boot install or recovery) and files in the DVD\sources dir are not used in PE

    AFAIK the .clg files are catalog files for respective edition,used by the WAIK, dunno what it does.

    trust me, they are irrelevent in DVD boot scenario, till now i havnt come across with any problems from them.

  3. to Nuhi:

    why there is some files remain in sources folder ??

    only files needed are boot.wim and install.wim (verified) wen doing DVD boot install.

    all other files can be removed to reduce size (abt 70mb)

    bcoz these files are present in #2 image of boot.wim (used for winPE and WinRE).

    I previously had wrote it somewhere in suggetions.

    hoping for next ver.

  4. The Xpress 200 IGP (HWID 1002: 5A61) on intel D102GGC2 m/b behaves erratically when i loads any catalyst driver greater than [ver. 7.8 (dated 27/07/2007) with driver ver. 8.401.0.0]

    like 7.9 or 7.10 upto 8.1.

    it installs correctly, but on reboot color reduces to 4 bit and 640x480 resolution. :realmad:

    and from dxdiag, the Direct 3D is not available. :wacko:

    i normally dont install catalyst suite, just extract the driver from it and update the driver from device manager.

    All the drivers are working in Vista correctly.

    Am running nLited XP SP3 v3205.

  5. I thought I would try out Ubuntu since I was at my wits end with trying to get some form of windows on the new computer with no success at all. The Ubuntu install on the CD went flawlessly with no errors!! My hardware was picked up though there may need to be upgrades but if there is I don't notice it. The OS is clean and organized.

    Windows 2000 gave me an acpi not compliant error and XP will not install neither, it would copy files until it hit the 30 second mark and than freeze out. Ubuntu was the only OS I could install on my system.

    Did you make any attempt to troubleshoot this? I mean if you can't even get XP to install, something is wrong with your computer, plain and simple.

    I have an Ubuntu virtual machine in Virtualbox but it is my least favorite VM. The interface feels like cheap plastic, things don't seem to match up, and it also has been the least stable VM I've run. I'm unimpressed.

    How can you make such a comment, if windows isn't working ,then the compuer is crap ???

    rjisinspired already said

    The Ubuntu install on the CD went flawlessly with no errors!!

    It is the problem of Windows incompatibility not the problem of h/w.

  6. "QUESTION:

    On the new computer can I install the slipstreamed Windows Pro I've already made from one of the other boxed non-oem Windows XP Pro disks, then register that with Miscrosft using the COA from the Windows XP Pro OEM version (Dell)?"

    ANSWER:

    No. Product keys are specific to each version, so OEM keys will not work with non-OEM media. :angry:

    I learned this years ago while beta testing MS OS products.

    Do a Google search for details on the innards of a file called SETUPP.INI and see if that might help you a bit.

    Good to see you're making a grand effort to stay on the right side of the licensing fence. :thumbup

    Good luck to you now and in the New Year.

    Exactly

    that file determines u r license and makes base Hash for the allowed keys for a particular version(OEM, Rtl, VLK)

  7. Dude, None of the examples are working(neither the one to disable EMS nor the one to rename)

    Here's how I did it:

    bcdedit -store c:\vista\boot\bcd /bootems {bootmgr} OFF

    bcdedit /store c:\vista\boot\bcd /set {bootmgr} description "Windows Vista Ultimate Final Setup"

    Dude Could u just Put an example u used for urself... I'm a newbie, so sometimes I might not know what to put in place of something like "<ur file here>" please use ur own paths and stuff with nothing that I might have to replace or figure out...

    thanx anyways

    THATS not possible

    first u should do a bcdedit -store C:\vista\boot\bcd /v /enum

    Then look fo an entry having description "Windows Setup" copy down its GUID (say {my_guid})

    after thta change the description

    by

    bcdedit -store c:\vista\boot\bcd /set {my_guid} description "Windows Vista Ultimate Final Setup"

    for the ems entry

    bcdedit -store c:\vista\boot\bcd /ems {my_guid} OFF

    if still u not getting the point, plz attach or send me the bcd file i wll do it
