Adding other programs to nlite

[melenor]

i recently bought windows XP MCE and installed it and realized that in three weeks i would have to install it again to the same comp but to a different hard drive, ( a much better one

and i have a lot of programs on my computer such as Firefox, Thunderbird, Microsoft office, msn messenger, to name a few, i don't mind losing information or profiles but i want to do a clean install of Windows but i want to have all the other program install at the same time so i don't need to go though the three (exaggeration but feels like it) hours it would take to install all of the programs, is there any way using nLite or any other program, to add the programs i like to the windows XP installition disk so they would install at the same time?

hi melenor! use add-ons (which you may find all over from: http://ryanvm.net/msfn ) & put it in Hotfixes & Update Packs section ...

when i add them it says unexpected update or hot fix, and then it opens the file so i install it thinking it will install on the CD but instead installs on my hard drive.
