rstryker Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 OK here's the deal:a: I am using the empty bootable ISO image I downloaded from the Unattended Page.b: I am useing UltraISO to add the files.c: Useing VirtualPC to test.problem...this has worked fine until now...when the ISO Image gets over 2.22 GB it boots but when it gets to the Starting Windows screen I get an error.STOP: 0xC0000221 unknown hard errorc:\winnt\system32\ntdll.dll this only happens when the ISO is over 2.22 GB I will try making a bootable DVD+RW tommorow and see if I get the same error.If I do I will try an install on one of my other PC's to see if it is a VPC problem.

Bachus Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 I have this problem when I try to boot Windows when I enable DMA on my HDD, but I doubt that'll help you here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yazoo Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 I use Nero to create a Bootable DVD image. As an ISO or NRG file. Then mount it using Nero DriveImage. My ISO DVD image is nearly 3GB and it installs fine using VPC.It maybe a limitaion in the UltraIso app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul 365 Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 I see alot of problems caused by these iso making and editing programs - i have found it far better to use something like CDImage Gui by CyBerian.I think i will do a write up on how to use this program to make a bootable disk.Stay tuned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rstryker Posted September 16, 2003 Author Share Posted September 16, 2003 I just figured out that ... if I mount the ISO with Alcohol 120% and then capture the drive with VPC it workes fine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul 365 Posted September 16, 2003 Share Posted September 16, 2003 Using vpc you dont even have to mount the .iso, you can just capture an image - Im sure vm can do the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rstryker Posted September 16, 2003 Author Share Posted September 16, 2003 Using vpc you dont even have to mount the .iso, you can just capture an image - Im sure vm can do the same.the problem all along was that if i mount the iso directly to VPC and it is over 2.22GB I get error STOP: 0xC0000221 unknown hard errorc:\winnt\system32\ntdll.dll but if I mount it with Alcohol and then capture it with VPC it works fine...Strange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pulpfixtion Posted October 12, 2003 Share Posted October 12, 2003 remember to rip out the bootable image useing isobuster from your winxp cdromThanks... I was not aware of the `4` sectors!With ref to the above quote, not sure what you mean here. I have downloaded the empty xpboot.img from this siteand where the tab says `use image` I have selected the above. Is this correct or do I still need to use Isobuster?cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nologic Posted October 12, 2003 Share Posted October 12, 2003 Frankly I don't know if you need ISObuster or not...but I normally work off the MS loader. Really ether way it shouldn't make a diff...but if you can grab the MS.img so much the better. Start to extract the boot loader from the original Windows XP CD. Using ISO Buster, select the "folder" Bootable CD, and right-click Microsoft Corporation.img. From the menu choose Extract Microsoft Corporation.img, and extract it to the folder on your hard drive where you have your Windows XP files.Taken from this tutorial on slipstreaming...but that one is for CD....but it sounds like the same deal.

pulpfixtion Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 Tested the whole DVD and it works great, now just a few tweaks to sort out.I have my silent install apps in:$oem$\$1\install\Applications\I have added Office11, Nero, Diskeeper 8 and a few other basics. That adds considerable size to the DVDI have, I assume an unecessary delay whilst installing as all the above getsobviously copied to my hard drive. to %systemdrive%\installTo save time is it possible to install Office etc from the CD as oppose to copying 500mb to the hard drive first?I call the install from a batch file as below:ECHO Installing Adobe Reader 6ECHO Please wait...start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\AdobeReader6\AR6.msi /QBECHO.ECHO.ECHO Installing Media Player 9ECHO Please wait...start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\media9\media9.exe /Q:A /R:NECHO.ECHO.ECHO Installing Office System 2003ECHO Please wait...start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\Office11\setup.exe TRANSFORMS=%systemdrive%\install\Applications\Office11\Unattended.MST /qb-ECHO.ECHO.ECHO Installing Diskeeper Professional Edition 8.0ECHO Please wait...start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\Applications\Diskeeper\Setup.msi /qnECHO.ECHO.ECHO Removing HotFix Log Files.DEL "%SYSTEMROOT%\*.log" /Q /FDEL "%SYSTEMROOT%\*.txt" /Q /FDEL "%SYSTEMROOT%\*.tmp" /Q /FDEL "%SYSTEMROOT%\TEMP\*.*" /Q /FECHO Deleting Temp Installation Files...RD /S /Q %systemdrive%\installECHO Applying Registry Tweaks...REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\install\RegTweaks.regECHO.ECHO.EXITThanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
