[Components] section isn't processed

[SlimShady]

Im always testing in VMware.

Update: Changing the order again didn't work.  So it has to be somthing different. Maybe its my whole CD?

Could be that you have rewritten the CD too many times and that it doesn't work 100%.

I would say burn your project on another CD and try again.

I meant my xpcd Folder. Im creating an .iso of it. So its not overwritten. I always change my xpcd folder and then create a new .iso of it. I test the .iso then in VMware. SO..... more ideas?

I remove a number of defaults from it. Change extension to sif. Give it a try.

You took out the Indexsrv entry but in the Ref.chm it says:

Default Value On (the Windows Server 2003 family);

                    Off(Windows XP Professional) 

It doesn't say what it is in Home. I got XP Home Edition.

On XPhome, don't specify that component at all, that's all. Just for sake of comparison, this is my components list from XP home:

[Components]
    Fax=off
    p2p=off
    chat=off
    upnp=off
;   oobe=off
;   paint=on
;   icfv6=on
    msmsgs=on
    WMPOCM=off
    msnexplr=off
    OEAccess=off
    IEAccess=off
;   WMAccess=off
    TerminalServer=off
    IndexSrv_System=off
    Games=on
    hearts=on
    spider=on
    Pinball=on
    freecell=on
    solitaire=on
    ZoneGames=on
;   mswordpad=on
    minesweeper=on

I have commented out the lines which I need and are on by default. And my components section works exactly as planned.

Index server is a server tool. Home will not have it. It is for IIS which home computers do not use.

@prathapml: You said u have commented out the defaults, BUT Zonegames=On is a default and is not commented out.

@MHz: I thought IndexSrv was the Indexing Service. But it's not. What's the Value for the Indexing Service then?

[MHz]

You can look for a Regtweak for Indexing service. I have mine running as it improves the speed of searching for files etc. Winnt.sif does not have an entry for it.

Found the tweak for you.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\cisvc]
"Start"=dword:00000004

[Injecter]

How do i turnn it of?

dword:00000000 ?

[MHz]

4 is off

[Yzöwl]

dword:00000004

00000004=disabled

00000003=manual

00000002=automatic

That one didn't work too. I think I'll try somthing totally different. Reports next week.

Question/Edit: Does somebody know how to delete/not-to-install the MS-Bluetooth-Stack? I need the Widcomm Stack, which I install later.

EDIT2: I figured out, that it's not the winnt.sif which is wrong. My friend took the same sif and it worked (at his CD). So my CD is wrong. I'll report.

I GOT IT The Entry which disabled the [Components] section was

[unattended]    UnattendMode=ProvideDefault Has to be f.e.: FullUnattended

The ref.chm says bulls*** somehow about this Entry. ProvideDefault is crap. So for future... NEVER USE PROVIDEDEFAULT
