twig123 Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 (edited) I need some help...I recently have tried using nlite 1.0 RC2 to slipstream RyanVM's Update Pack 2.0 then add BTS's Driver packs(M2)...and during the install it doesn't use any of the options that I have preset in my WINNT.SIF file....also, I have previously tried to use nlite 1.0 Beta, RyanVM's 1.3.0 & BTS's drivers (M2) without any issues. What am I doing wrong, or how do I solve this issue?Also another feature of nlite I can't seem to make work is the Option to show the "Internet Explorer" icon on the desktop even though it is selected to do so. I can make it show the other 3 (my doc. comp & network) without any issues. any ideas?Here is the code for my WINNT.SIF file:---------------------------------------------; Generated by nLite 1.0 RC2[Data]Autopartition = 0MsDosInitiated = 0UnattendedInstall = YesAutomaticUpdates= YesOemDrivers = OemInfFiles[unattended]UnattendMode = ProvideDefaultUnattendSwitch = NoOemPreinstall = YesOemSkipEula = YesFileSystem = *WaitForReboot = NoNoWaitAfterTextMode = 1NoWaitAfterGUIMode = 1DriverSigningPolicy = IgnoreNonDriverSigningPolicy = IgnoreTargetPath = WindowsHibernation = No[OemInfFiles]OemDriverFlags = 1OemDriverPathName = "%SystemRoot%\OEMDIR"OemInfName = "net8150.inf"[Display]Xresolution = 800Yresolution = 600AutoConfirm = 1[TapiLocation]CountryCode=1Dialing=ToneAreaCode=517[systemRestore]MaximumDataStorePercentOfDisk = 15[GuiUnattended]TimeZone = 035OEMSkipRegional = 1OemSkipWelcome = 1[Components]msmsgs = offmsnexplr = offzonegames = off[userData][RegionalSettings]SystemLocale = 00000409UserLocale = 00000409InputLocale = 0409:00000409Language = 0409[Networking]InstallDefaultComponents = YesHome_Page = http://www.google.com/[identification]JoinWorkgroup = MSHOME[GUIRunOnce]command9 = "%SystemDrive%\D\BTS_DPs_finish.cmd"---------------------------------------------Also was wondering, because I HAVE to have my icons in a specified order (obsessive compulsive i guess). Is there a way that I can make my unattended install put my My Computer, My Documents, Etc. into a specified order?Please let me know what I can do to resolve this issue ASAP if anyone has any input.

Grake Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 (edited) Did you intentionally take out [userData] to post it in here? if not it shouldn't be empty. If you did take it out, i got no clue. Try a tweak outside of nlite to put explorer on desktop. It's pinned at the top I beleive.; Sort My Computer above My Documents on Desktop[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{450D8FBA-AD25-11D0-98A8-0800361B1103}]"SortOrderIndex"=dword:00000054that would put my comp above my doc. Only sorting reg key I know of. Edited November 6, 2005 by Grake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twig123 Posted November 6, 2005 Author Share Posted November 6, 2005 ... actually this is the file generated by nlite & BTS, then I added a couple things like URL & TAPILOCATION (Which I have used many times before with the previous nlite & driver pack. UserData was blank... I didn't delete anything.Any Ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grake Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 then you have to fill in [userData]that's the place where it has cd-key, and computer name.should look like the following.[userData]ProductKey = "XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX"ComputerName = NameFullName = "FullName" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rikgale Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Hey you could try downloading the M$ SP2 deployment tools as mentioned in the guide, the setup manager will create you a WINNT.sif file (after a bit of renaming). It is very much like the unattended setup in nLite. This might help you, it might not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twig123 Posted November 7, 2005 Author Share Posted November 7, 2005 @Grake - Unfortunately I use this setup on MANY different systems so I can not include this information... I WANT to be prompted for the USERDATA.@rikgale - I already have the deployment tools, but to no avail, I even tried using my previous known working WINNT.SIF file to no avail, it still asks me for the infoLet me know if you guys have any more ideas of what could be causing this to happen.

Grake Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 well just for testing purposes see if it's using the winnt.sif if you have the userdata filled. If it isn't then it's not a problem with winnt.sif file at all. somewhere else i would guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twig123 Posted November 8, 2005 Author Share Posted November 8, 2005 will do... I'm thinking that the issues lies somewhere else myself... but am unsure of where. I will test 2morrow, cause it is 4am and i gotta B 2 work in the morning... *sigh*... the story of my life... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twig123 Posted November 13, 2005 Author Share Posted November 13, 2005 I just recompiled XP again, now with nlite 1.0 RC3, RyanVM 2.0.1 and BTS latest (5.11 I belive) and still will not use my WINNT.SIF file ...and also for testing I added the user data and also tried another copy with only the RyanVM files... still to no avail. What is going on here?I didn't have any issues when using nlite 1.0beta, and previous copies of RyanVM & BTS files.any other ideas would help greatly...Thanks,~Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
