hey guys i got everything working on windows 2003 and its all booting perfectly but when i went to try out xp on my cdimage disc after it was in text mode it was asking for a floppy for the winnt.sif file or something, im pretty sure ive just missed a step somewhere but can anyone point me in the right direction

also how do i change the boot image so it doesnt have the cdimage logo

<snip>i just fixed this erorr<snip>

the xp error is

Please insert the disk labeled

Windows XP Professional Service Pack 1 CD

Into Drive A:

Press enter when ready

if i press enter it just keeps trying :S

Did you add the idents needed?

idents?

anyone?

If windows 2003 is in the root then and WinXP is in it's seperate folder, then it sounds like your win51,win51IP, and if sp1 win51IP.SP1(Idents) need to be added to the root as well as in the install folder (parallel to the i386 folder for windows XP). In the root of your disk you should not only have have the idents for windows 2003 (I'm not sure what they are.) but also the ones for XP as well. Ihope that helps.

for 2k3

Win51 & WIN51IA
