Txtsetup.sif Error When Booting Winpe

[ghunum]

I followed the directions from http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=14316 to make my USB HDD bootable with WinPE on it.

Now, when it starts up, I get the 'Setup is inspecting your computer's hardware configuration..' message like normal but then it stops with the error message "txtsetup.sif is corrupt or missing, Status 18".

Have any of you seen this or gotten around it before?

Thanks a lot.

With the time that has past since you posted this I presume that you found the problem ??

I'm getting the same error except that I get a status 13.

TxtSetup.sif is corrupt or missing, status 13. Setup can not continue

I used both Win 2003sp1 and Win 2003 R2 - and both Win PE cds have this error.

I realize that this isn't the program directions that you used but maybe we have common solution to a common problem ???

I built my CDs based on this article http://searchwincomputing.techtarget.com/t...1091930,00.html

Create a custom copy of a Windows PE CD, Paul Davey, Contributor, 08.17.2005

It loads in to a RAM drive, kinda neat if I can get it to work..

Any help will be greatly appreciated
