Well, welcome aboard. To be honest, I'm not quite following what you did, so please take some time and explain a little better.

At the same time, attach (not paste) your Last Session.ini. It could be that you are adding your applications in the wrong place/window in nLite.

Please bear in mind that questions related to nLite should be posted in the nLite forum.

There are two ways of installing applications from an unattended CD: add-ons (for nLite) and RunOnce(Ex). For both ways you need to find out the silent parameters/switches for those applications, so they install without your involvement. The best way is to identify the type of installer. You can find help about that here http://unattended.msfn.org/ , under Intermediate Users/Applications.

If you want to create your own add-ons, you can use the Add-on Maker, but have in mind it doesn't support all programs, so somewhere you will have to enter the silent switches manually. I suggest you use search here on the site, as well on Google, and you will find many applications that have already been created. If some program is too difficult for you, you can ask to have it made as an add-on in the Application Add-ons sub-forum here.
