riZz Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 HI guys i'm in dying need of some help, I have create a PE of Windows XP i can't seem to get it to load in my boot menu, all what happens is that cdshell tries to load the .dat files and comes up with weird jibberish on the screen shown the string SETUPLDR.BINBOOTFIX.BIN23WC. I'm using Bart's PE if thats any help.I have used the directory c:\LONG for the root folder of my CD (i'm just messing around to get these files to work then i will be adding them later into my DVD root folder later, i can make normal windows version load from the boot menu but not PE based versions).The directory im using is shown belowC:\LONG - winbom.inf - win51ip.sp1 - win51ip - CDIMAGE.exe - 23WC.DAT +\BOOT (where cdshell lives) +\23WC (XP PE) - autorun.inf - biosinfo.inf - explorer.exe - ntdetect.com - setupldr.bin - spcmdcon.sys - txtsetup.sif - win51ip - win51ip.sp1 - winbom.inf +\Fonts +\Inf +\Profiles +\Programs +\System32 +\WinSxS I have editted the 23WC.DAT file to read as SETUPLDR.BINBOOTFIX.BIN23WC which should say look inside the folder 23WC. Within the 23WC folder i have replaced the text string i386 for 23WC within the setupdlr.bin. I create the image file using CDIMAGE,i then it load it into my virtual PC console and i get the error meantioned above.I've tried using various guides on adding Longhorn, ERD Commander into my DVD but couldn't get them to work either so i tried to adapt them methods into my XP winPEDo i need to create a boot folder like u do for XP where u take the boot discs extract the files etc? but that would go to load xp to install but not run...Any help will be great, thx in advance... if i can over come this then i can start on Longhorn Whooohooo!

evilvoice Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 could be a corrupted dat file...it happens...depends on what you edit the dat file with...there is some hex editor that corrupts files, I forget what it is. I use HHD Softs hex editor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
