SP2 Slipstream and WFP problem...

[latency]

How to get WPF (Windows File Protection) to recognize the SP2 CD?

Ok heres whats going on:

1. I created a bootable slipstreamed XP SP2 CD.

2. Rebooted and formatted C:\.

3. Installed XP SP2 and everything going fine until I accidently del

a needed windows file then Im prompted with this:

---------------------------- box 1--------------------------------

Files that are required for windows to run properly....etc

Insert your Windows Professional Service Pack 2 CD now.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

so I insert the CD I slipstreamed myself and click Retry button and lo and behold

the dreaded msg:

--------------------------- box 2 -------------------------------

The CD you provided is the wrong CD.

Please Insert the Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 CD into your CD-ROM drive.

------------------------------------------------------------------

I click ok and insert the CD in my other CD-RW drive (H:)...same msg

so I make sure this registry entry is pointing to the correct drive letter:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\

ServicePackCachePath = I:

ServicePackSourcePath = I:

SourcePath = I:

where I: = my regular CD-ROM player.

looked in Windows dir an see newly created setupapi.log

these files:

WIN51

WIN51IP

WIN51IP.SP2

are on the root of the CD.

peeking at the WIN51IP.SP2 file with a hex editor I see: 0D0A

and it matches the Idents found in the xpbootfiles.zip

I'm out of ideas here, tryed reburning and putting different labels to no avail.

Thanks for your help

do you have a winnt.sif or runonceEx.cmd?

if you don't know what i am talking about I won't be able to help you.

Hi Asta

I know what the winnt.sif is for, I used it before on a floppy for unnattended

but neither of them files are on the SP2 Slipsteamed CD, why would I need these when didnt with SP1 Slipstreamed?

I think it may be asking for the SP2 cd not the slipstreamed cd.

Hope this helps

I had these localsec policy's set to ENABLED, disabled them (default) and working now
