Yep I used Resource Hacker and Photoshop, and swapped out the images. The setup dll took ages to get it looking right but I think it was worth the effort! For the Kernel files I used BootEditor to put the images in! Plasma

Add a custom startup logo and change the colur of the progress bar.. I also replace the "winntbbu.dll" to give a custom setup screen... Plasma

Hmmm .. I wonder, I have 2 custom Kernel files which I replace the existing ones with, I'll remake the ISO without doing this and see if that fixes the problem. Plasma Yup that was it, so thanks for the pointer! Though the question now is how do I integrate my custom Kernel files that I've done for years? I edited the SP3 originals with boot editor, and then ran ModifyPE on them, and re-packed them. This has worked for everything since I started using nLite. Any ideas? Or should i just try modifying them again! Plasma

Using nLite 1.4.5 and a copy of XP Pro Corp SP2 which I have Slipstreamed SP3 into using nLite. I have a copy of the source files which I move to the build directory each time I run nLite so its always a clean copy to begin with, the first few iterations ran fine, now on the last 3 times I've built it setup won't start and I get .. The file mountmgr.sys is corrupted - Press any Key To Continue I haven't changed anything as far as OS or patching is concerned the new iterations were to test some addons's I'd upgraded, to the OS files should have stayed the same. BTW, I'm mounting the ISO in VM Ware 6 to test it. Any Ideas? *great program by the way been using it for about 2 years* Plasma

Ignore this post, I've solved the problem I had with KB929338 Cheers Plasma

Unfortunately for me the RC2 works better than the Final. When I use the 1.3 Final I get this error during the unattended install of PowerDVD: When I run exactly the same .ini file through 1.3 RC2 I do not get his problem. Both .ini's attached, I have no other issues so will just use RC2 for the time being. Kind Regards Plasma Last_Session_RC2.ini Last_Session_Final.ini

2 features i would most like to see are ... Pin Default Browser and Email Client to Start Bar (as is on a normal install, they are missing on an nLited install and have to be put there manually) Enable Quick Launch by default (This would be BRILL!) Cheers Plasma

Sorry, maybe I didn't phrase it very well, the shortcut is missing too. I'll add msinfo32.exe to the list of files to keep and put the shortcut back manually. Cheers! Plasma

After a new install just noticed an Icon missing and so is the program it ponts to, this may have been lost a while ago as I've been using nLite for over a year, so not necessarily something new under START\Programs\Accessories\System Tools\System Info.lnk Points to "msinfo32.exe" which is missing. Can someone tell me what it is that removes this? Would have expected it to be in Applications section or OS Options but can't seem to see anything relative. Last Session .ini attached in case its of any use. Plasma Last_Session.ini

ModifyPE seems to have worked, no install errors this time!! Plasma

Cheers Nuhi (and fantastic program thanks) Ok, opened it with WinRar 3.62 and did a "Commands", "Test Archived Files" .. all passed ok. Tried it with ModifyPE and got .. D:\Source Files\Drivers\Siemens S6010 Laptop Drivers\Fujitsu FUJ02B1 Device Driver>modifype dmio.sys -c No Error occurred, have a nice day D:\Source Files\Drivers\Siemens S6010 Laptop Drivers\Fujitsu FUJ02B1 Device Driv er> Will now remake the the disk and see what happens. I'll report back! Plasma

Hey folks, I extracted some drivers for my Fujitsu Siemens S6010 laptop from a working system using Driver Genius, most of them work however one of them comes up with the messge: "dmio.sys is corrupt or invalid" during an unattended install. Only 2 of the drivers extracted have this file and its the same date / version in both of them .. Any idea's how I can keep these drivers integrated but stop the "invalid" message? Like can I run ModifyPE on a .sys file???? Cheers Plasma

Yep, tried it and it increased my ISO size by about 40Mb! So no good for me as I run a tight 700-701mb iso so it will fit on a single CDR, don't want to go to DVD or size wouldn't matter! As you can see from the ini's I have a LOT of appz integrated too! Plasma

Great Work but my new ISO is 3Mb bigger than under 1.2.1 with even more stuff removed. I've been through the .ini's and the EXTRA lines in 1.3b (no lines missing just extra ones) are .. ;# Hardware Support # Iomega Zip drive ;# Network # H323 MSP ;# Operating System Options # Administrator VB scripts Auditing Resource Dlls Certificate Management I also directly integrated KB927978 where as previously I'd re-packed it in an CAB addon with the /quiet switch. So I was expecting it to be even smaller. On Checking the KB927978.exe is still in SVCPACK directory but is a few Kb smaller guess this is how you have added the integration then? But why is the ISO bigger by 3Mb when I've taken more out, I've added the .ini's for inspection but the only differences are that the 1.3 has the above extra lines and a .exe for the KB instead of a .cab. Also any chance of direct integration of KB913433, KB923789, KB917344 I currently repack them all as CAB addons with the /quiet switch??? (Which you will see from th .ini's)! Cheers BTW! Plasma

Cheers for that tap52384 and MarcJ .. I'll go back to the drawing board and remake the iso from scratch I understand why the problem may have occured now. Still seems strange why the Time Zone Settings, PC name and CD Key are lost though! Hopefully get time to try it tomorrow, will report back! Plasma

This will be the 3rd time I've posted this issue since the beta came out but here goes.. I get a fresh copy of my XP SP2 CD source and make a uA CD with nLite 1.0.1 ..... 700Mb I get another fresh copy of my XP source and remake the same uA CD with 1.2.1 .... 726Mb I didn't change a thing simply copied the .ini files to the 1.2.1 directory and did next all the way through. I did have to put my Name, Company, CD-Key, Keyboard, Locale and Time Zone in again because for some reason it doesn't read them from the 1.0.1 file (Yes I did copy both the _u.ini and the .ini). So what gives? Why is the 1.2.1 ISO so much bigger than the previous ISO made with 1.0.1? I've uploaded my sessions and the only change I've made is to remove the CD key. The _u.ini from 1.0.1 will not import into 1.2.1 and I have to enter the Name and CD Key etc manually. Can someone help? I'm stuck on 1.0.1 at the moment as its the only version that can make my uA CD fit on a single 700Mb CDR. Plasma Sessions_1.0.1.zip Sessions_1.2.1.zip

{orig}Bad form replyin to my own post but I may have found them, I've opened "WINNTBBU.DLL" in Res Hacker and it looks like they are in there! I'll let you know how I get on!{/orig} If only I'd refreshed the screen before posting! lol .. cheers m8 thanks for the super fast reply! Plasma

Hey guys, been looking around the net and saw this little baby, the disk was made with nLite but how did he get this custom setup screen: Which file is this image in? I'm happy to use Resource Hacker to replace it just need to know where it is? Plasma

I have it working on my versions of nLite .. including the last 1.0.1 final version will post my .ini file later when I get home! Plasma

Nice Work Nuhi .. but I have a few problems .. First is the fact that you have moved the "Company Name" and "Full Name" under the users section, not quite as obvious as it was when it was on the General Tab (IIRC) with the serial number etc. I missed it first time because I thought it was the "Full Name" under User Account properties not the name for the install. Purely cosmetic though and not a massive problem. I also liked being able to "click and drag" addons up and down the list, this functionality disapeared a version or 2 back and you must now use the up and down arrows which can be a pain when moving things from top to bottom etc. However the main problem is this evening I made an ISO with nLite 1.0.1 then remade the same ISO with nLite 1.2rc (AND removed a few more things) the new ISO is 7.5Mb BIGGER than the old one. Surely removing more things should make the ISO smaller? I've attached both .ini files for analysis Plasma {EDIT - Custom theme wasn't applied either} Old_Last_Session.ini New_Last_Session.ini

Was looking forward to this, hoping to remove more stuff from windows an shoe horn more onto my uA CD! Re-made a new uA CD with nLite 1.2b, kept all the same settings, but removed some extra stuff ... Resulting ISO is 10Mb bigger Any idea's or should I post a new thread with the 1.01 .ini and the 1.2 .ini ?? Also can't see the section to add the Registered Name and Company info? Or am I blind? Plasma

I haven't removed Outlook Express so its not that, but thanks for the reply! Plasma

Hi guys, been working on this one for a couple of months, seem to fix it after trying many things but then can't replicate the fix on a clean system, hence having trouble fixing my problem! The scenario is this, I use nLite to remove IE and a host of other components, I install Outlook 2003 at T13 and AFTER that I then install Firefox (again at T13). After the install and having configured outlook. When I receive an email with a link in it, I click it expecting it to open in Firefox, but I get this message: Now I believe this is something to do with the file types / handlers. Its definately a registry setting and I think based around the classes in HKLM\Software\Classes\. Lots of search results in Google but all say reset settings in IE (no can do as I've removed it!). I have one machine with Outlook that I've fixed and a broken Outlook in VM Ware! In the one I fixed I also made changes in file explorer "Tools", "Folder Options", "File Types" but I've tried that many things, seems like a combination of things I did to fix it worked, but I'm unable to find the right combination again to fix the machine I have in VM Ware and implement the fix on my uA disk! (Hope that makes sense!). Still working on the problem but just though I'd post in case someone has already fixed it and can save me tearing out my hair! Cheers Plasma

Will try this one with my uA disk .. every other one I've downloaded has not worked for me, think I remove something that messes it up. My installer works but its 20Mb so if this works for me it will save me 6mb! Cheers! Plasma
