drive55 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 (edited) Greetings & Thank you for this excellent progam - I am using nLite for a year now but w/ most basic skills, wish I knew how to understand to write script and such, but computers is hobby & not main job. but, does not even the most experienced computer peoples start with not understanding things?Today I integrate sp3 into XP_sp2 build that also have IE_7 & WMP_11 integrated to it, but upon install, the computer it displays IE_6 & WMP_9 !! Why this ? also, does sp3 slipstreaming w/ nLite basically delete or overwrite the sp2 components? i wonder, because my first try, the result come out to 725 MB !! so, for the veery 1st time, I make selections on the Options/General page, thinking to try ways to make everything smaller. Trying again, I also elect to delete more folders during the procedure, this time come out to 450 MB !! Thank you much for your helping !

Kelsenellenelvian Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 (edited) YOU DO SP3 FIRST!!!Always do the service packs first and always start with a clean source...Then go in and remove the usual folders. ( http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/view/web/57/ )Then go ahead and add the addons, wmp11 and 1e7.

drive55 Posted March 7, 2008 Author Share Posted March 7, 2008 Thank you for response - i did those removals the 2nd time through, upon reading that very guide you mention ! very nice to understand what is unnecessary to keep, what can be thrown away !now my source .iso already have IE_7 & WMP_11 in it, so how can SP3 come 1st ? or, after i extract source .iso to workshop folder, do i need remove things before starting project ? thnks again for all helps ...

Arie Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Using nLite you should always start with a clean source, so you will need to use your original installation disc and not an already altered source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drive55 Posted March 7, 2008 Author Share Posted March 7, 2008 Using nLite you should always start with a clean source, so you will need to use your original installation disc and not an already altered source.ok, so if i go back to microsoft original "genuine xp" disc w/ sp2, ie6, wmp 9?, does slipstreaming the newer prog. versions overwrite the older ones automagically, or does that need done mechanically? thank you .
