YMatrix Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 (edited) Hello!I have successfully created an unattended XP installation with the a Hebrew language pack.Works like a charm if I don't intend to change the MUI, meaning I leave it in English.But, if I do change the MUI, I get mixed content (some parts in Hebrew, ex: the "Start", and some parts in English, ex: My computer Icon, My documents Icon).Since the original XP is international (English), I can only slipstream a SP in English.After installing, and applying the MUI pack, not everything changes (Because the the integrated SP is English).I tried creating an unattended setup with the Hebrew SP, but I get the error that the SP and the original setup aren't the same language.Is there a way to overcome this paradox?Thanks for your help![***** Edit *****]I did some trial and error, here are the results.The first was in the following installation order: 1) original XP 2) Language Pack 3) Service Pack(the English one)The result is good - all menus and dialogs are in the specific MUI that was installed. The second time I changed the installation order:1) original XP2) Service Pack (the English one)3) Language PackThe result was not good, some menus are in English, some are in the language of the language pack - meaning the same result of the nlited version I described in the original topic.Hope someone has found a solution to this.

m-p{3} Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 AFAIK from my previous experiences it is not possible to slipstream the MUI into the i386 source folder of the Windows XP installation disc.You could try to create an unattended setup of the MUI files, and integrate it into the OEM folder so they get installed during the Windows setup.

YMatrix Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Hey m-p{3}!Thanks for your reply.You could try to create an unattended setup of the MUI files, and integrate it into the OEM folder so they get installed during the Windows setup.I already did that, but I ended with a mixed content of the windows GUI.

Yzöwl Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 This thread is now contains a heavily edited accumulation of responses from three different threads which were started without searching all on the same subject. The first three posts are from the original thread and for the most part contain the answer the other three topics were after. Unfortunately due to the majority of the respondents not using the Forum in an appropriate manner the flow of the thread is completely ruined, but the problem(s) and solutions are there and easier to find than reading through four different topics.
