  1. Hi Nuhi. I've tested your fabolous nLite 1.2.1 and I've seen the following problem:

    When integrating IE 7 into the install (and of course several hotfixes too), I get the following error messages in

    C:\WINDOWS\Setuperr.log:

    Note 1: The messages have been translated to english because my language is spanish.

    Note 2: I've used *only* hotfix direct integration feature of nLite. I've not removed any component nor applied any tweak.

    Can you confirm if this is a bug in nLite 1.2.1?

    Thanks very much in advance.

    Regards.

    I don't have any such error messages in my English install doing the same integration.

  2. Just a comment that nLite has come a long, long way since the last time I tried it. It's quite remarkable now with the excellent interface and the clever compatability options. I would have to say that it's no longer a "hack" and is now commercial and business grade. Thanks for sharing your wonderful work with the world!! :D

  3. I have seen Windows Update malfunction for a day or two. It has been known to declare that patches are missing and then find them when you try another day. My latest install from a GreenMachine CD that included the same April updates worked fine however. For me, Windows Update saw no problems.

  4. Have not used Ghost in a while. as I have moved on from it. However, when I did use it, it included a utility called "gdisk". You would boot from your ghost disk and run "gdisk /mbr" to rewrite the mbr for Ghost. Try it on the drive already cloned ---won't hurt and may help.

  5. Tbone2:

    Your list of files that it hangs on was very helpful in confirming the problem, once we narrowed the list of suspects. It took a long time to stop "rounding up the usual suspects" and start looking at new ones!

  6. Yeah, I'm thinking that we need to start with a CD that has never seen or heard of CDimage. Then, we'll know. I'm shot too right now, but I'll post when I try it. (Edit - who ever edits?? :) ) More testing and experimenting needed by me, I mean!

    Edit:

    Well, I just tested mine again -wow- I forgot how fast the file copy was supposed to be. Then I started with my ISO - deleted my files and put in GreenMachine files.

    Slow, slow copy. Very strange - Watson!

  7. I'm noticing that my slick new GreenMachine CD takes a lot longer to copy the files too. I've gained back some time by opening the ISO in UltraISO 6.51 (use only this version) then extracting all the files (except the bin files). Then I deleted all the files from the ISO (except the bin files). Then I re-added the same files from the location that I extracted to. Under File - Properties (in UltaISO) I marked "Optimize", then I resaved the ISO (Lots of activity as it claims to be optimizing). Whew! This gained back some of the lost time, but not all. Further testing and experimenting by me needed! I suspect the same thing as Green posted, there is some delay caused by something it's searching for --- Hmmmmm. But, some of the delay was apparently caused by the CDimage process.

  8. It does not report anything about replacing any files after the scan. If you scan again, it asks for the CD again - every time. I have come to the conclusion that it's a bug perhaps related to the way we are installing the hotfixes. I don't think it means anything is really wrong, but I think it's a bad idea to do it unless there is a real problem that you hope to fix. I found many places that advise against running SFC and say that if you do, you should reinstall your hotfixes.

  9. Nope, this is before I patch any system files. You should get the same mesage, don't you? I did add some themes and wallpaper during the install - in anticipation of patching later. I tried it on another system, installed the old fashion way - with just slipstreamed SP1 -- and all the patches installed by Windows Update. Same message!
