I want to install XP to my e: drive and i want to store all the installation files that will be read during teh installation from my d: drive, both are ntfs, how should the batch files be modified under these condition BTW Great Tutorial, also what if i wanted to copy the whole cd to my d: drive and install xp also from there along with the applications thereby speeding up the process and removing the need to put the newly created xp cd in the cd-rom drive. And could u put some info on Nvidia Graphics Card, Norton Antivirus (Normal not Corporate Edition), WinZip, and what about stuff like Intel Chipset Installation Utility and Intel Application Accelerator that are necessary drivers for the motherboard hardware to be recognised in XP, all MB manuals say that after XP these should be immediately installed. And (sorry) what if i want to install XP the old fashioned way and install my apps using a batch file, would that be possible after the installation? ALso the resources page needs to be updated to reflect the new apps. Thanks
