I'd also like to report that IE and DX files are updated, but the reported version numbers stay the same (versions 5 and 7 respectively).

  

Could you provide more details on the exact problem? Do you end up with IE 5 and DirectX 7 installed instead of the newer versions? Could you post screen shots? I have personally not experienced such a problem. In my new, fresh installation of Windows 2000 using the FullPack I have both IE 6 and DirectX 9 installed correctly.

The .NET programs I tried are WinMD5 v2.0 and a small program targeting .NET 2.0 from a game mod project I'm helping with.

I have conducted a fresh installation using the FullPack and can confirm that the .NET programs indeed do not work correctly. I am guessing that it is HFSLIP unable to correctly integrate the .NET addons. I will try to do more testing and see if the issue is fixable, either in HFSLIP2000 or the .NET addon packages themselves.

I'm not at the same place as my 2000 installation, but yes IE 6 and DX 9 do install, but if you look at the about box of IE 6 it reports as version 5 (but with the IE6 logo), and dxdiag reports the DX version number as 7, even though DX9 files are present.

You are right. I can confirm that something is indeed very wrong. I would actually say that this is a critical bug. I am pulling the FullPack from the download Archive for now. I will have to test whether it is another component butchering the installation, or HFSIP2000 itself.

I am very sorry for the situation. I am not using Windows 2000 as my daily OS anymore, and no one had reported these problems before, so I had no clue. I will try to find a solution as soon as possible.

I did some testing and here is what I have found.

1. Everything slipstreams and installs correctly when using the official version of HSFLIP 2000, which at the moment is version 1.0.2, which is also included in the FullPack package.
2. Using my test version of HSLIP 2000 which I talked about sometime 2 years ago (i.e. the one which greatly sped up the integration process) results in a partially broken installation. I am not sure what exactly gets broken, but there is at least this IE and DX problem, and also the installer once asks something about installing unsigned drivers, which should not happen in an untouched, clean installation. I liked to use that version of HFSLIP 2000 for my testing because, well, it is so much faster, but I will not do it anymore. That version is currently available to download at my GitHub, but it is not advertised anywhere else otherwise. The FullPack uses just the standard version of HFSLIP 2000 as well.

My question then is - @win32, did you happen to use the experimental version of HFSLIP 2000 by any chance?

On the other hand, the problem with .NET is unrelated and I believe it is simply HFSLIP being unable to properly slipstream it. All the files are copied to the system folders correctly, but there is likely an error in the file registration and executing process. I will try to see if there exists any simple fix to this issue. In the worst case, I may simply end up disabling the automatic installation, and leaving only the manual installation through the Add/Remove Programs applet in the Control Panel.

Right now I will very likely remove the broken experimental version of HFSLIP 2000 from GitHub, as I have not been working on it any longer. I actually do not want to do any more patchwork on HFSLIP, and I have some other ideas in mind for the future, so for now I will concentrate on bug fixes only.

Looking at the log in the ISO, I did use 1.0.2 from the FullPack, and it does indicate that DX9 and IE6 were slipstreamed. I'll have to try using it again.

Please let me know once you try again. The thing is that that experimental version is/was also called "1.0.2", although the structure of the final log file would be a little different. If you can still find the log file, I would like to have a look at it.

OK, here is the log. I am running Windows 10, not Vista:

Now I know how to hide content :)

[tomasz86]

Thank you. The log indeed indicates the official version of HFSLIP 2000, not the experimental one, and is exactly the same as mine from yesterday, which installs correctly here. Something must have gone wrong during the slipstreaming process, but the HFSLIP log, unfortunately, does not include any post-slipstreaming information. What is your host OS, by the way? HFSLIP, of course, always says "Windows Vista", but in reality this covers all Windows versions from Vista to 10.

If the HFSLIP log included a full list of files with their version and what not, then it would be a different story, but with such limited information, I am unable to do any more blind troubleshooting. To really be able to investigate more, I would either need to have access to the full i386 folder to check the files myself, or ask you to run a special script that would make a full list of the slipstreamed files with their versions.

My question is - would you be willing to run such a script? I am asking since I have to write the script first and do not want to do it for nothing. Another option would be to pack the i386 folder and upload it somewhere, but this would be classified as illegal Windows file sharing by M$, even if done only for troubleshooting purpose .

PS To hide the content, you need to manually type

around the content you want to hide. It will show up as a thin line in the preview, but clicking on the line will not do anything at this stage. The content will become hidden only after you submit the post. Sounds complicated? Yes, the new "modern" and shiny forum software is kind of a pain to actually use. Who would have guessed...

Yes, I'm willing to run such a script. Anything for the proliferation of Windows 2000

I like this attitute .

I have uploaded the script to the download Archive under https://mega.nz/#F!2lBVBBLI!WqmqhpxuX0qyCY1LiX4-gw!L0omSarK.

Please download "HFSLIP2000-info.7z" and unpack it to your Windows source folder. The file structure will look something like this:

I386
SUPPORT
CDROM_IP.5
CDROM_NT.5
CDROMSP4.TST
HFSLIP.LOG
HFSLIP2000-info.cmd

Then just run "HFSLIP2000-info.cmd" and wait for the results. It may take some time as the script is not optimized (=it is slow), and also right now requires to be run in Windows 7 and above (because of one of the tools used to calculate SHA1). The script will make a list of all files from the i386 folder, including their size, version, and SHA1 checksum.

Once the script has finished its job, you will find a new file called "HFSLIP2000-info.txt" next to the script file. Please pack it and upload somewhere for me to see.

Here is the result of the script: https://mega.nz/#!MtdXHCKS!WFdzcRe3pIA7fWsj22YlV171hI4R9wg2GHSEvAntj00

Hmm, I expected some significant differences in the slipstreamed files, but in fact almost all of them are exactly the same as in my source, with the exception of "SETUPREG.HIV". Yours is almost double the size of the original, which is quite strange. This file is modified by HFSLIP only in the very beginning of the slipstreaming process when adding support for larger drives to the Windows 2000 installer, and I am suspecting that this may be the host OS (which is Windows 10 in your case) to mess the things up. Even after the modifications, the file size should normally stay roughly the same (as it is in my case).

I would like to ask for two things:

1. Could you please share your "SETUPREG.HIV" file for inspection? If possible, both the one from your unmodified Windows 2000 source, and the one after using HFSLIP2000.

2. I have uploaded a new, beta version of HFSLIP2000 to the Archive under https://mega.nz/#F!2lBVBBLI!WqmqhpxuX0qyCY1LiX4-gw!L0omSarK. This one does not use "reg.exe" from the host OS, but rather relies on the one from Windows 2000 to patch "SETUPREG.HIV". This will probably require some time, but if possible could you use this version of HFSLIP2000 to slipstream everything again, and then run "HFSLIP2000-info.cmd" on the newly created source? I would like to compare it with the old one to verify my suspicions.

Here are the setupregs: https://mega.nz/#!Zs91kIyY!L4wzc00mdutMqkgQYz4as3q-Kp7iME8P90tbBJTHcq0

And I'll try running the new version tomorrow.

I think that we may have a little bit of a mistery here. Your "SETUPREG.HIV" is indeed abnormal. The file has basically its contents doubled, hence it has twice the size of the original. The problem is that even in this state, it does not affect the installation process. I have used the file for my test installation, and there was no difference with the previous one. The installed system was functioning 100% normally, with both IE6 and DX9 present.

At the moment, the only way that I can reproduce the IE/DX missing issue is when using that experimental version of HFSLIP2000 from two years ago, but your log file suggests just the standard version of HFSLIP2000, so I am really not sure what may have caused the issue .

[win32]

Here is the HFSLIP-info from the new version of HFSLIP. The SETUPREG.HIV in this case is very close if not the same as the one from my SP4 source: https://mega.nz/#!stsnGAjQ!pk3XQYhngBHX91_xOmbNnwuTx5O1lLv5iMB-VLv7GNo
