February 9, 200917 yr I made some nLite cd's based on XP and I must say that it cuts down the time in making one on my own with scripts.Now I would like to know if it's a good start to use this in a business environment to deploy this image to other machines. To be clear I have to make a "GOLDEN" image, an image that will be the base of all machines. This will be an nLite install let's say with things enabled and disabled. After that I make a sysprep of it from the deploy.cab file. Will that image be usable and will every service start like a normal untouched WinXP because I have the impression that sometimes some services have problems to start or maybe it's somewhere else. Or maybe there is a lastsession.ini file specially used for business environments?

February 10, 200917 yr Author Mmm not so good news. But why is that that we cannot use this in a business environment. Isn't it stable enough or not enough tested to be sure it's reliable? It's not written in this eula?

February 10, 200917 yr It IS written in the EULA!!It resides in the installation folder and you also got to read it (and agreed to it) when you installed nLite.
February 10, 200917 yr Author Yes ok Kelsenellenelvian, I agree that we must read before we install how many eula's did you read before installing the application? Maybe 20% of the time like most of us
