[dareyah]

Hi,

I'm testing my image under VMware and am getting stuck with:

===================================================

Please insert the disk labled

Windows XP Professional Service Pack 1 CD

Into Drive A:

* Press ENTER when ready."

===================================================

I believe I've done everything right. Can anyone assist?

Thanks,

in vmware, u have your first boot device as CD?

[Alanoll]

make sure you have the IDENT files in the root of your disk

Win51

Win51IP

Win51IP.SP1

README.HTML

SETUP.EXE

(I typed these from memory, but you need those)

Thanks for responding guys:

MCT: Yeah, I'm using the ISO image for CD-ROM and tried it for A: too.

Ending up disconnecting the a: from boot up.

Alanoll: I was unsuccessful at copying those first 3 files. I've tried 4 source disks but it wont let me copy. Is there away around that?

Would that be my the answer to my problem?

Thanks again,

dareyah

Alanoll: I managed to copy those files. My current XP profile is stuffed and so has been doing alot of weird things. As soon as I created a new ISO and tested it in VMware. It worked.

Thanks again,

hate to dissappoint you.....

all you really needed to do was create a EMPTY text file with those names....and setup doesn't care. That's all those files are anyways. lol.

I'm serious, open them up, they're blank 0kb files.

I trust you.

I really need to get this DVD working. My profile has got to the point where notepad has an error loading. Under a different profile, it works a treat :/

I'm having a few other problems now with my unattended installation that you might beable to help me with. I'll create a new thread for them : )
