Restarting at T-39


Recommended Posts


Extracted from WINNT.SIF

[GuiUnattended]DetachedProgram=%systemroot%\filename.exe

the above executes @T-39 , possibly, if you're using this,

there is an error in your command / path / filename / file itself etc.

My next suggestion would be to eliminate OemPnPDriversPath from winnt.sif

to see if its caused by a driver file, or a bad inf.

also, i have seen this caused by a corrupt file on the harddrive within the installation source files.

An easy way to eliminate this possibilty is to COPY (not move)

the entire compilation elsewhere (hopefully a diff hdd) and create the ISO from there.

:hello: Maybe this will help you troubleshoot what is going on. It is Micro$oft's info on things you can use to troubleshoot Windows Setup.

Description of Windows Setup Function Keys

Good luck, I've run into something similar, but the T- spot was a bit further and was due to drivers not being defined in txtsetup properly.

+++Also, do some searches on M$'s support site, you should find some useful commands they have to run in the command window that shows up using Shift+F10.

+++++For more help: Setup stops responding with 34 minutes remaining

:whistle:

I would also like to suggest the use of Bashrat T.S.'s DriverPacks. There has been much work put into these and they are worth using them. Unless of course you enjoy doing it yourself. But, they are worth mentioning. For the link to the DriverPack site, I have updated my signature to include it or you can find the forum in the Member Contributed Projects area.

Shark & VCC

Thanks for your help I really do appreciate I will try first thing in the morning, I have the machine at work. Also I should mentioned the last thing I installed on that machine was "XPIZE". Could that have damaged the files?

VCC I will take a look at Bashrat T.S.'s DriverPacks.

Thanks again,

I am in the process of running the ua install now without the OemPnPDriversPath, lets see what happens. I also uninstalled XPIZE from my machine as well, I don't need to take unnecessary chances on my pc which I have too much lose...

I will get back to you and let you know if that worked. If that is the case then what do you suggest may be the issue? The drivers got corrupted?

Guess what Shark, you are a "Genius". Took out the OemPnPDriversPath and it worked. :w00t: Now the question is why did that happen, and if it's corrupted how do I uncorrupt and which file do I need to replace.

THANKS.... :hello::hello:

you're welcome.

the handholding is just about done.

You mention network drivers, which do install around T-32

These would be my 1st suspect. Replace the OemPnPDriversPath in winnt.sif

but remove the network drivers from the source files.

Remove the entire 010_broadcom_nic folder and any other nic drivers you have.

Possibly, your drivers arent for your exact nic or something like that.

Have fun troubleshooting and enjoy the forums, see ya
