ic....well I don't believe you answered my question, as mine was more rhetorical, and answered later on in that very same post. As for [setupParams], I believe you would learn more then from more telling you, if you looked in your ref.chm file included witht eh deploy.cab file on your Windows XP CD. If you search [setupParams] you will find an entry pertaining to that. If you were to use this to have your keys executed at T-12 or so, then you would call your batch file like you would form cmdlines.txt but in the entry for [setupParams]

I'm sure it is 64kb, but I'm sure mine worked as well. And the deep microsoft site in question, I believe is in the TechNet site under Driver DDK

lol

its [GUIRunOnce] inside of the winnt.sif file. taken from your quote above. I don't really think you understood what I said, but oh well. If you want me to try to explain let me know. As for the outlook express thing and executing the RunOnceEX entries, that's refering to that fact that IF you import keys at cmdlines.txt or svcpack.inf they won't run untill the first restart. However if you import them at [setupParams] then they will run prior to cmdlines.txt executing (if they don't get overwritten.) Yeah...um....did you even read my post above? by call another batch, I mean you have one batch file import, the RUnOnceEX keys, then in RunOnceEX you have another ifle that imports another set of keys and so on.....why not just have one?

i think this has been mentioned before, not neccesarily about the corrupt CABs though. I"ve never seen that happen before, and I use CDImage. wierd. however.... if your compression ratio remains constant, you'll get another 160 megs of stuff on your CD

either Right-click and select extract if available.... or start the program, when the install screen comes up (the actual install one, not the otehr one) go to your temp folder, and it's most likely in there or in Download (something) in your WIndows Directory.

mine is over 200 KB....and it works..... worked on 9X too...wierd

<insert sarcastic remark here> Please post in the right forum next time. Pretty please?

just out of curiousity, why would you have RunOnceEX call another batch file..... if you use GUIRunOnce, you could have one MASSIVE command file with each section seperated with the rundll32.exe iernonce.dll,RunOnceExProcessI'm not entirely sure if the batch will stop and wait for the RunOnce box to finish, might need start /wait or soemthing, but that will prevent your "retired" entry. Then you have one file.

hmmm how about.....XI?

it may very well suck, but then again, I just typed in NVIDIA into the search page and got a number of results. And as for DirectX or WMP9, if he did SEARCH he would have found he answers. He may be learning, but there is no need to have 20 people ask the same question over and over and over and over again.

well I have all of the critical Updates slipstreamed and haven't had a problem (atleast all of em upt ill yesterday or whenever that latest were released)..... P4 2.4 ghz HT. 160 gig hd 160 gig hd 200 gig hd DVD+RW CD+RW DVD-ROM 3 gig RAM RADEON 9700 XT DFI Mobo

well, if you do that page I linked, you change i think two files, and then you have all of your winnt.sif in one place, and one CD.

I've never even attempted to install the MS Action packs, don't even know where to get them. But their serial is given by the winnt.sif or is it the XP cdkey that needs changing? what you MAY want to do, as a work around, is create a sort of multiboot but only for the purpost of the boot folders. OR....even easier..... http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...winnt.sif"

for extracting most of the hotfixes, i believe it's /x

but a VM is cheaper then buying a new computer to test on good thing i have alot of extra parts. Enough to build a 2ghz machine.

how does the serial get entered in your environment? if it's by a registry entry, though I don't know how..... but if it is.... in the same file you could do something like...... IF %MAC% == 123456789012 GOTO COMP1IF %MAC% == ABCDEFGHIJKL GOTO COMP2 :COMP1compname /c SCRAPHEAPregedt32 /s regfile.regGOTO END :COMP2compname /c SANDBOXregedit32 /s regfile.regGOTO END :ENDand so on, and divi it up that way

I don't know if you're more lucky that I saw this first or Wraith. Granted it's not his website, but have you even BOTHERED to check the forum? The program has it's own freakin forum. With instructions on how and where you can use it. I believe the link is in my signature.

its starting to sound more and more like both of you have kernel errors somehow. If you have hyperthreading, so ensure that you're using the multiprocessor kernel and not hte uniprocessor. You will get the hang if you do.

it may be easier to go use XPCreate.....it does it all for you.... check it's forum.

slow machine? mine sits for about 20 seconds......and I didn't remove it. just search OOBE with a time window of over 60 days, and I think there is a post by Gosh.

look at the setupapi.log if it was during first boot, it might be in there. but when somethign is listed on the screen, that means it's been loaded. Alot of peopel think that means that it is BEING loaded, but it's not. OOBE usually loads quite abit and then unloads. That's why some peopel opted to remove it.

Perhaps your pro2.dat was pointint to pro1 (yes I know you said you checked, but I've sometiems check and check the wrong file ) or perhaps your cdshell.ini file is chaing pro1.dat (again, I"ve dont that as well). winnt.sif should go in the boot folder your chaining. If you fixed it, I'm curious how. If not, perhaps say what you;ve changed? you should have posted in the proper forum. This is dealing with multiboot DVDs, so one would think it would go in the multiboot forum? I've been filling in for flyakite there as he hasn't been around much (atleast posting wise, or I beat him to it ) and I kno i would have saw this post there. EDIT:: Edited the post. Happy now?

@mlu see his other thread. He's already said how to get/make/alter it.

it's probally OOBE loading. mup.sys is already done loading if it's listed on the screen....
