Unattended on CD (no floppy) with iastor driver

[montysl]

I am attempting to fully install XPSP2 from a CD with Intel SATA RAID drivers normally installed at F6. I have read and duplicated code listed here but am having the Error (18) referencing the TEXTSETUP.OEM file on line 1747 and after allowing the install to proceed an error that stops it down saying "The manufacturer File that setup is trying to use is corrupted or invalid. Line 1 contains a syntax error." I have the slipstreamed install working perfectly with most other drivers (a topic for another thread) in the OEMPnPDrivers path and a simpler version without any drivers. I have included my winnt.sif, txtsetup.oem and pertinent parts of my txtsetup.sif file for your help and comments. This is my first posting here so be gentle......thanks.

Try using the TXTSETUP.SIF method instead. Search the forum for this topic.

You can read this thread, it may help.

I have found the TXTSETUP.OEM method to be ineffective when trying to install disk drivers while on the other hand the TXTSETUP.SIF method has always worked for me.
