It's too complicated, who knows if even possible. Maybe by tricking it in registry. With all that time spent you could have simply reinstalled. You can't expect to get it right from first try, if you are too reluctant on reinstalling then maybe full Vista is the best solution.

I think it's AVG.

sp00f, which version of vlite are you using?

Check the vlite homepage vlite.net, second news post ("Reboot on browse"). To "solve" it you will have to uninstall any antivirus programs you're using and if you care report the fix to them.

Ok, I'll add detection to warn user, thx.

You chose to remove CAT files, first try by not doing that. Uncheck Hotfixes - Advanced - Remove Catalog Files

Try using Logical Disk Management, format USB stick to FAT 32 and make the partition active. I think that's all, just copy the files on it and setup your BIOS if it's not set to boot from the USB.

It's the UAC thing, right click the game exe and choose Run As Administrator. That should help, if not google around, many have that issue, not vLite related directly, maybe only because you disabled UAC if I had to guess.

Arneh, yeah I did all that by following that Winbeta guide but the WIM wasn't mountable later on. He did write something about do it from XP or PE, not Vista but I thought that he meant not from the Vista which you'll configure. Anyway thank you both for confirming that the method works, I'll retry it from the XP when the next SP is out.

Huh seems like I'm not doing it right then. Can it be that booting to another Vista is the mistake, does it have to be PE?

aviv00, I think that only Help is breaking it from those 3. Little patience I'll look into this once again, now I must.

d0p3y2k4, if you kept MS HTML Engine, as recommended, then it's normal. Trinidad, ok will check. Alex, you're welcome. Jeronimo, ok then the non-English version must have confused it, gonna correct that if I manage to provoke it, thx.

larciel, MagicAndre1981 gave you solution for the cdkey if yours doesn't work on SP3. Btw try once without all these addons, it might be that one of them isn't compatible with SP3. I tried your preset (without the addons) and it worked fine.

larciel, used SP2. Integrated SP3, removed all components, applied my usual tweaks and unattended settings. Tested in VMWare. Also others reported that it works. But it's always possible that there is some combination which could fail. Attach your preset and I'll try it, unless you did just slipstream, then it can't be nLite's fault. Try redoing from the scratch, if you have RTM then slipstream just sp3 but it's not the problem here, sp2 is fine.

Oh lol true...I thought that RTM was 166xx.... Anyway the message was clear, about 64bit, already answered...I have nothing valuable to comment, ashamed.

Since now you want 2 things restored I recommend you do a reinstall with those kept. There is no easy restoration.

Seems to me that you're not using RTM Vista, but 6.0.6000.16470, that's some older beta version.

XP or Vista? If it's XP for sure then is that on the Filter Manager install?

banshee28, in essence that should work but my captured image didn't work, I presume we need new imagex version for the SP1, I was using RTM.

Hm, my test went fine. But that error sounds like something from the old times. Do you maybe have Dell modified OS?

It supported it and then with the latest release of SP1 RC MS put the blockade with the message "online only package can't be integrated into the offline image". So we have to wait for the offline type service pack, if any will be available. There will be a new DVD and ISO with the SP1 preintegrated so that won't be a problem, unless they charge like you are buying Vista again...that would be lame and explain why they don't allow us to integrate.

It should have done that automatically if syssetup was edited. Integrating drivers won't do that so you must have done something else as well, can you attach the preset?

LeveL, winsxs contains backup of all windows files, so yes they are doubled, even without any integrations. You can't simply delete those, they are read during component configuration like the one in Control Panel, or when installing a new hotfix. However some of them are obsolete versions and that is the option I'm considering. Also I'll try to revisit that component which removes 98% of winsxs, if I manage not to break hotfix installations (doubtful). winsxs\Backup is just a backup of core system files.

I'm using Comodo as well, it's the best firewall for Vista at this moment. (especially the option to turn off logging) It doesn't rely on Windows Firewall, you can remove it. Only thing that Windows Firewall was so far needed is IIS installation but home users rarely need that anyway and vLite would warn you about that if you kept IIS.

Ok, that particual language pack was reported many times so it must be something with it, gonna try it, I downloaded it already but haven't got to it.
