I got Xplode to work on my test machine which is an Athlon XP 2000+, 512 MB memory, scsi cd-rom and cd-burner, 10 gig IDE hard drive. Registry tweaks install, the few apps I am installing work, and it also adds the two users I set it up to. Now when going to install on the machine it was made for which is Intel D915PBL motherboard with a 3.4 GHz Hyper threaded chip. 1 gig memory. 200 gig SATA hard drive. The partition I am installing to is 85 gigs. The apps install, it doesn't show the reg tweaks install, but when I boot in they seem to be there. The users portion does not install. My log file says 3 plugins do not load.

XPlodeAdduserPlugin2.xpd2, XPlodeFSOpsPlugin2.xpd2, XPlodeRegistryPlugin2.xpd2. On the test PC the log file shows a successful install. I have searched and seen other people with problems like this, but am unable to find a solution to it. Any ideas would be great.

Post the xml file maybe but looking @ it, someone can see something to help you

This is a known issue, and at this time, I'm unable to find a reason as to why this is happening.

I will be speaking to you regarding testing XPlode3 in the near future though.

Thanks for the response. When ever you are ready so am I.

Turn off Hyperthreading (I suspect its enabled) in the bios and re-run Xplode

Thanks a lot for the help. Works like a charm now. Definitely something I would have never thought of. Thanks also to Wraith for writing such a cool and useful program.

No worries, glad to help.
