Need help with XP Pro SP3

[Jerry76092]

Hi everyone.

I apologize if this is a total noob question.

I have XP Pro, SP2. (32-bit)

I used nLite to slipstream in SP3 and then grabbed all the updates from Microsoft. Added them all to the basket, etc.

When all is said and done, ISO burned, etc. I go into Virtual PC 2007 and create a new VM to test everything. The thing always hangs after the install is done and the machine reboots and gets to the "please wait" XP splash screen.

Does anyone have any ideas?

What the heck am I doing wrong??

Any help at all would be really appreciated.

Thank you.

Welcome @ MSFN-Forums!

Please attach your "Last Session.ini" (Root of your ISO) to let us know what you`ve been doing.

One of your updates has 185 characters in its name. I don't know if there is a limitation but I'd try putting them in a dedicated directory with a shorter path.

This isn't the cause of your problem but you're missing WindowsXP-KB953155-x86-ENU.exe.

You can also add WindowsXP-KB898461-x86-ENU.exe (permanent copy of package installer).

Remove X86-en-windowsxp-kb955839-x86-enu_0446f106b648d38c366c09e9c9016cea5b5732e7.exe and add WindowsXP-KB970653-v3-x86-ENU.exe instead since 970653 supersedes 955839.

Take a look at the page in my signature.

Thanks. I will.

I tried disabling OOBE and everything works now. I managed a full unattended installation and it booted all the way to the desktop.

I wonder what that's about..

Anyway, it worked without OOBE.

Hello again.

I have gotten the image to the point where it installs all hotfixes.

However, for it not to hang at the XP slash screen, I have to disable OOBE.

It never boots unless it do this.

Can I get OOBE to work at all or must I leave it disabled?

Also, how can I now slipstream in .NET and WMP10?

That's it.

After that, I'll have the image I want.

Thank you.
