gabfhd79 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Hello,I am using nlite 1.4.9.1, Win XP Home and SP3. Since I have switched from SP2 to SP3 changing Program Files Path (e.g. C:\Anwendungen or D:\Programme instead of C:\Programme) does not work. Is this a new "feature" of SP3?gabfhd79 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnhc Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 gabfhd79,Please attach (not paste) your LastSession.ini. Does code looking something like this appear in WINNT.SIF?:[Unattended]ProgramFilesDir="d:\Program Files\";Program FilesCommonProgramFilesDir="d:\Program Files\Common\"[GuiUnattended]ProfilesDir="d:\Documents and Settings\";Documents and Settings Enjoy, John.

gabfhd79 Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 This is the section of the Winnt.sif generated by nlite 1.4.9.1 (German Windows): [Unattended]ProgramFilesDir="D:\Programme"CommonProgramFilesDir="D:\Programme\Gemeinsame Dateien"Partitions C,D and E were made by Gparted before the installation of Windows.Profiles are installed under E:\Benutzer as I set in nlite on the options page.Using SP2 with the same LastSession.ini and Winnt.sif causes no problems.LetzteSession.ini.ini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnhc Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 gabfhd79,I don't have much to offer. Did you modify or have your own WINNT.SIF file that you use after nLite runs? Does your WINNT.SIF have a [GuiUnattended]?Enjoy, John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gabfhd79 Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 Hello johnhc,I use the Winnt.sif generated by nlite with no changes and the following GuiUnattended section:[GuiUnattended]OemSkipWelcome=0Some guys in german forums say, that Microsoft does not recommends the changing of the progam files path. So maybe Microsoft forbid this option in Winnt.sif with SP3.Thanks gabfhd79 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitsukai Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 it works fine for me (SP3) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnhc Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 mitsukai,How about attaching your LastSession.ini and the [unattended] and [GuiUnattended] sections of your WINNT.SIF, so we can see what they look like?Thanks, John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitsukai Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 all i do is set program file to D:\programs and profiels to D:\profiles.on a clean sp3 cd. works fine for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnhc Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 mitsukai, thanks but I would really like to see the [unattended] and [GuiUnattended] sections of your WINNT.SIF. Are there closing \ on the paths. The earlier example I posted from another post on doing this directly in their .SIF file had closing \ on all paths. Please see above. Is it required?Thanks, once again, John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnhc Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 mitsukai,Thanks again. The profile change is not in the SIF file and there is an active discussion of that here.Thanks, John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gabfhd79 Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 Maybe one of the post-SP3 hotfixes prevent the changing of the ProgramFilesDir. I will test this tomorrow and report later.gabfhd79 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
