I'm trying to create a Windows XP Pro SP3 disc with WPI to install programs. I'm having 2 problems with WPI. I'm using MS Virtual PC 2007 SP1 as a test environment.

1. When Windows finishes installing and calls WPI, WPI comes up as text. I don't have extra files associated with notepad, and .hta files are associated with Microsoft ® HTML Application host as, I believe, it should be. If I create a stand alone WPI.iso and run it, it works fine.

2. When the installs complete, I get a can not initialize sleep.exe error. WPI's reboot command overrides it, but I'd like to get rid of the error message. I don't have anything that calls sleep.exe in my files. At the end, I have a forced install set up to run my cleanup.cmd and cleanup.exe from the tools section. Does cleanup.exe call sleep.exe? I run cleanup.exe from the tools folder. Should I move cleanup.exe and sleep.exe to my install folder and run cleanup from there?

Let me know what files you want to see. Thanks in advance for the help.

Thanks.

I have cleanup.exe and sleep.exe in my tools folder. I'm calling cleanup.exe from the tools folder. The WPI_log.txt is from the stand alone iso. I don't think the one on the windows disc makes a log.

I am using nLite for my windows disc. I hope you're looking for the last session.ini file.

WPI_Log.txt

LAST_SESSION.INI

It seems to be a problem with MS Virtual PC 2007. I downloaded VMWare and it works fine there. I still get the sleep.exe error though. With the temporary Office fix, it is ready for me to use. "Good enough for the girl Jason married." I still have a few more programs to add, but it sounds like I'll have to learn Auto-IT before I can try them.

The sleep.exe error only happens when I use the do not load desktop/have computer shut down or restart after WPI is complete option checked. If I use the timer, it doesn't happen.

Depending on what version you are using, I fixed a bug dealing with that. A space was left out somehow. 6.4.1 may have that fix; 6.5 definetely does.
