@bOrG I didn't see a question. I saw a statement, no question.

uhh..... SFC_OS.DLL IS Windows File Protection. It is the actual program that detects the changes. It's just a hacked file to look for a different key so that WFP can be disabled via a registry key. @Jazz I have three updates that show up on my test system. 835732 828026 826939 (Rollup) I know what causes the Rollup. It's removing Automatic Updates, though maybe not the only one. I'm not sure of the others.

@mickah Be careful around here. We don't like pirate users. If indeed your key was pirated, (as some of us may know) that I could have easily just delete this thread. We don't condone pirate users. We're not even supposed to help them. (If we don't know they are, whoops). I've removed your key.

GUIRunOnceEX = RunOnceEX. Xplode = Xplode Now that we got that out of the way. A simple walk through the XPlode forum may help you to know what it is, but since you're lazy and didn't bother to search.... Forum: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showforum=86 Site: xplode.voidfx.com As for RunOnceEX, a simple look at the unattended.msfn.org websitewould help. Here are the links again.... http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/runonceex.htm

I don't think a simple lowercasing of the I will fix that problem. Like crck3rz said, we need to see that code to tell you where the files should go. RunOnceEX is obviously in the right place, or it wouldn't even start up.

@Twilight Instead of waiting for someone that actually has legal access to the current SP2 builds, you could just revert back to SP1 or RC1 of SP2 for a day or so to make your ISO.

@Jazz I'll create a base XPCREATE image this weekend, and use nLite on it (it will actually be the first time I use the program besides viewing it ) What did you remove? I'm sure the INI file nLite create might be helpful so I know what components you selected so I can select the same ones.

User Name will probally have to be in quotes if there are Spaces. I'll see about fixing that. try using msiexec /i %PATHTOWINAMPMSI% %SWITCHES%

does it tell you to enter this disk... ? if it does, make sure BOTH MN130-51.sys and MN130-50.sys are in the SAME folder as the INF file. AND MN130.CAT

it could be the drivers are using tag files, if that's so, copy the file to where you copied the drivers. What drivers are yo using? Open the INF file, and there should be a section near the top like [sourceDisk] or something, with the following syntax 1 = %cdname%,%cdtag% or something along those lines.

hmmmm never saw that before.....

It's sometimes better to let it fully load, that's what the wait period is for. By having start /wait when you called SHUTDOWN.EXE, it prevented the desltop from loading. Removign it will close teh batch, but SHUTDOWN.EXE should keep running so that the desktop loads fully.

remove the /wait technically, you don't need teh start either. Just shutdown.exe. You don't want the computer to wait while it's counting donw to shutdown

Is that what you put in the OEMPnPDriversPath? If it is, remove the $OEM$\$1\ . Make sure OEMPreInstall=YES. And try again. PS. Sometimes it helps if you post yoru winnt.sif file

they shouldn't be anymore.... unless I editied it wrong.... :/ I'll go check... EDIT:: Thread: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=17412 Link: http://www.xtrememac.net/download/download.php?file=10 Be sure to let me know if you find any bugs in the MSI or files so I can fix them.....

CDIMAGE does not compress anything. It optomizes. The ONLY time the image will be SMALLER when using CDIMAGE then the reported FOLDER size, is when inside teh folder, there are IDENTICAL files. Also, I'd say use something other then -o.

you can add as many drivers as you want. Make sure the PnPIDs are differnt. Windows will only use the ones that are neccesary adn they won't conflict with eachother. As for Monitor7.inf, check both TXTSETUP.SIF and DOSNET.INF to make sure its listed in them BOTH. If not, there's your problem. It's probally an error in DOSNET.INF.

You could have ONE thread, but multiple posts inside the thread.... Each post being next step maybe? I see no problem with it. Unless of course it ends up being almost the same idea as any previous guide, which it doesn't look like so far.... If you post in the wrong forum, I'll move it to the right one, or another mod will.

remove the " just BEFORE the =

delete the partitions, format, install. Use whatever progam you want, but just wipe the harddrive clean. format it, delete all partitions. You could use FDISK form a Win98 startup disk to delete the partitions, and Windows XP setup will then format and install to a brand new partition with everything else being gone.

color is COLOR xx as for percentage, i think BucketBuster is refering to the percentage that is displayed when makecab is running. As for showing the actual percentage, the best thing I can think of, would be periodically guestimate in your batch file, have it ECHO your percent.

Very Very nice. I always just assumed OEMFilesPath works only from Network drives.... Where are you Install directories? The I386? Did you rename them so that each is in the root directory so they all use the same $OEM$ directory?

this maybe of interest. You'll have to modify it slightly, but hopefully it helps. http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=8381

I know CDIMAGE won't work. I was symply telling you why. It's not a reduction or compression tool, it's more of an Optimizer. as for nLite. Load up the program, and remove what you want. There is a recommended preset that probally will remove enough.

[sourceDisksFiles] viasraid.sys = 1,,,,,,4_,4,1,,,1,4 viapdsk.sys = 1,,,,,,4_,4,1,,,1,4 [HardwareIdsDatabase] PCI\VEN_1106&DEV_4149" = "viapdsk" PCI\VEN_1106&DEV_3149" = "viasraid" [sCSI.load] viasraid = viasraid.sys,4 viapdsk = viapdsk.sys,4 [sCSI] viasraid = "VIA Serial ATA RAID Controller" viasraid = "VIA ATA/ATAPI Host Controller" ]/Code] More like that. VIAPDISK is the ATA controller on the mobo, and VIASRAID is the SATA.
