My CD not working?! :(

**danielvh** · August 20, 2003

Hi everyone!

Got my XPCD finished and bootable and it installs windows xp pro sp1 (corporate) fine.

Settings are automatically setup etc.

But none of my applications/updates work eg DX9.0b

When WinXP is finished installing it comes up with an error message and I quote:

Windows cannot find 'C:\install\batch.cmd'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the start button, and then click search.

All files such as hotfixes ARE copied to the HDD after formatting.

Daniel

(see below for my code sections)

**b0r3d** · August 20, 2003

i think you need to check and make sure that you saved your batch file as "batch.cmd" not "batch.txt".

That error is caused simply by a typo.

**danielvh** · August 20, 2003

Yep it's already batch.cmd

**b0r3d** · August 20, 2003

So your batch file is successfully copied to c:\install ?

**DaveXP** · August 20, 2003

make sure that its not batch.cmd.txt as this is a very easy mistake to make.

**danielvh** · August 20, 2003

Yep successfully installed to C:\Install

And no it's named correctly: batch.cmd

One other thing the winnt.sif file as changed names just to winnt in the i386 file. Is this normal?

Daniel

**b0r3d** · August 20, 2003

if you manually execute the batch file after windows installs, do all the programs install correctly ?

**danielvh** · August 20, 2003

How do I manually execute it?

**b0r3d** · August 20, 2003

double click it

**danielvh** · August 20, 2003

double click it

It's a notepad file.

That will just open it and display the contents.

...or have I done something wrong in creating it???

Daniel

**b0r3d** · August 20, 2003

Yep. You've done somethign wrong.

Most likley you've created it as batch.cmd.txt

What you need to do is open it with notepad and re-save it. (Save As)

This time, when you save it, where it says "Save as type: Text Documents (*.txt)" change that to "All Files (*.*)"

Once you've doen that, make the filename batch.cmd

Problem solved
