I get the same error. I'm doing the exact same thing as 1stITMan, trying to create a boot CD with Win2k SP4 and integrated RAID driver. We have multiple Dell PowerEdge servers here so i added two Perc drivers, Perc 3/Di and Perc 4/Di. After burning the CD and popping into my test Dell PE Server with Perc 4/Di Raid, I get the same error: mraid35x.sys is corrupted, blue screen. Any ideas to get rid of this problem?

Oh and yes, i chose Textmode driver not PNP and still getting this problem. I also chose the correct OS Windows 2k. Using nLite 1.0 Beta 6. I want to be able to install Win2k without hitting F6 and installing the RAID drivers off of a floppy disk. Some of our Dell Servers don't come with Floppy's anymore.. :(

I searched all of the forum, no answer for this question.

It has been a while since the last post on this subject, but I want to post my solution for this problem for future refference

I created an installation disk using nlite.(v1.0.1)

The steps I followed:

-Downloaded the Perc 4/Di Raid drivers from the dell support site.

-extracted the drivers to a temp folder

-started up nlite

-used my win2k cd and had the data stored in a folder on my harddrive

-I selected the options: Integrate Sevice pack;Integrate drivers;unattended setup;create ISO

-I integrated sp4

*** the trick**

-I used winrar to open op the driver.cab file in the /i386/ folder

-I extracted the mraid35x.sys (win2k and the one in SP4 are the same version)from the cab and copied it over the one in the temp folder containing the driver-selected the correct driver by pointing to the dell drivers in the temp folder (txt driver not pnp)

-made some changes to the unattended setup (unattended mode: provide defaults)

-started the process

-created an iso and burned it to cd rom

The CD let me install win2k without any problems with the Perc driver and error messages.

Hopes this helps someone
