if a patch is slipstreamed, it cant be removed

So does this mean I am stuck with classic themes on this pc forever, unless I re-build it? :unsure:

kinda....but next time u should try your nlited cd in vmware or virtual pc.

Yea, I will most likely do that next...THANKS for all the help....

Last question: Would I be able to use a style prog like Windows Blinds, or will that also not even work???

u can try a repair install.....but i would say go for a fresh one.

well....your choice....after all :rolleyes:

I agree with you and will do a fresh one. In fact I will nlite another cd with more updates, and try it in vm first...

Thanks for all the HELP ............................. :thumbup

Well, I did a complete new install, with a newly made nlite CD. I removed KB920342 from the latest update packs. All went well, and I even slipstreamed a MCE theme which is working!!!

HOWEVER, FOR SOME REASON....THE THEME STILL GOES TO CLASSIC FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS, THEN REVERTS BACK. This has happened 3-4 times in the last 24 hrs. Sometimes It will just change the current window, then others the task bar also .. :o

Ad-Aware and AV Clean!!!

Any advice? Here is a quick screen shot:

Hello every one,

I made a XP MCE 2005 DVD using Nlite 1.3.2 rc.........on booting & intsalltion I faced the following issues:

Btw it was my first time using any Nlite & slip streaming.........

1. I got all default XP themes but neither XP MCE theme nor Sony themes.........when I opened the box to check for other themes I had such figures.......... [] []

2. The default windows Text was slightly different?

3. The updates & Hot fixes that I inserted couldnt see them in C:/ Windows??

4. Where do I add WMP 11, Net frame work 2 etc.........in Components??

5. Though I inserted the key & upon installtion it wanted it again?

6. Nlite is great for OS, Service packs & driivers only.......may be I need to practice more.....destroy less DVDS..... should install VMware & check on it first before actual installtion?

7. It failed to show my removable drives clearly.........Memory Stick Pro & SD/MMC drive?

8. Is there any other soft ware to grab the default drivers as I am in the Sony recovery dvd XPMCE envoirment?

Hoping to hear from ya smart people..........

I want to make a cutomized DVD of XP MCE 2005 to my needs

Just a gut feelin........

1. I feel that antivirus, antispyware softwares should be disabled when using Nlite.....specailly Spybot.

2. machine should not be attached to the net.

3. It should be fresh install from Recovery DvDs & than use Nlite to slip stream.

4. How & where does one insert default & extra themes?

5. Can one slip stream some windows related applications ...where & how?

Regards!
