RandyLS Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I have Slipstreamed my XP Pro disc with SP2 and all the hotfixes. It installs just fine and works well but the pocess takes about 2 hrs. Is this normal or is there something wrong. Is this due to all the hotfixes being installed during install? I have not included the most recent hotfixes released last week.Randy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pppx00 Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 15 min, no more.BTW If you are using an english XP copy, you should use RyanVM Update Pack instead of integrate all hotfixes one by one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fgaifen Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Mine takes about 1h30 but installs all windows hotfixs, ie7, directx, office, nero, divx codecs, antivirus and has all driverpacks sleepstreamed.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viscon Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 15 mins here - setup is about 240 megs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livewire48 Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 (edited) 2hours sounds a hell of a long install time! My install of XP Pro+SP2 and VIA SATA+Audio drivers takes ~ 9mins but its quite a streamlined install, i dont have IE7 or any version of IE for that matter. ISO size is 142mb.

Thunderbolt 2864 Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 2 hours? Thats unusual. Mine only takes about 20-30 minutes with all the hotfixes and update packs slipstreamed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuhi Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 5-10 min, depends on the drivers integrated and if LAN slows things down at the end (just unplug your LAN cable if you stuck at first logon black screen without hdd activity). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oiboy Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 My last nlite install CD was made in Dec 2005 it took 15 min to install.This 1.3 RC2 version with 315 MB install is taking almost 2 hours and 45 min. Nice to hear this is not normal but I'm not alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandarin Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Mine can take anything from an hour to an hour and a half on a virtual machine but it is always much faster on a real PC. It gets the point where the final reboot takes place and then the blue screen where it says loading and applying personal settings - that is the bit that takes forever! Sometimes it just sticks at this point and I do a manual restart and that seems to kick start it again.My earlier nLited CDs didn't do this but then my earlier CDs didn't have anywhere near as many addons slipstreamed either.

prx984 Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 (edited) I've got an nLite cd for a PIII 650 laptop, and it takes roughly 20 minutes to do an install. That includes Firefox, WLM, Nero, IE7, and a few updates from MS that I needed.My new laptop takes 10 minutes to install the same disc Edited February 25, 2007 by prx984 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyLS Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 I used the current version of Nlite this time and slipstreamed SP2 and all hotfixes . I used all the default settings to make it bootable and had Nlite burn it to cd. The program I used to burn the cd is called NTI,which came with my laptop. It was so much easier to use than Nero. The install time was about an hour which is pretty much standard. It has been running for a week and I see no problems. I am a happy camper and look forward to the newer versions of Nlite.
