Dragon_985 Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Hello AllI am new to this forum. I just tried out to make a Unattended file using winXp deploy tool.

gtaylor Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 The error message you posted indicates a problem with the TXTSETUP.SIF file (found in the I386 folder), not with your WINNT.SIF file. Have you modified your TXTSETUP.SIF file in any way or integrated any Service Packs or Hotfixes?If you haven't modified your TXTSETUP.SIF file then it may have been corrupted while integrating a Service Pack or Hotfix.

Dragon_985 Posted April 5, 2007 Author Share Posted April 5, 2007 Hello gtaylorI guess i may have modified the TXTSETUP.SIF which may have occured when integtating Hotfix using nlite software.So is there a way to make the SIF not to pop any error?RegardsDragon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtaylor Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 If you don't know exactly where you went wrong you should probably start again. Run through nLite with just the basic options (Windows XP + SP2) and see if you can produce a working unattended setup. Once you have a basic working unattended setup then start adding components and making customisations. Be careful with the more aggressive nlite options particularly the remove components section. The best advice is to make a small number of changes at a time, testing that your unattended setup still works after each change. This makes it much easier to identify and resolve problems with your setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon_985 Posted April 7, 2007 Author Share Posted April 7, 2007 Hello GtaylorThanks for the response. I tried again to integrate hotfix using nlite. But again got the same error.This time i gave a try to Ryanvm integrator and it worked fine. Also the Unattended file woked perfectly Thanks for your help.
