Geckotek Posted October 21, 2003 Share Posted October 21, 2003 Anybody figure this out? I've tried everything I can think of with no luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geckotek Posted November 5, 2003 Author Share Posted November 5, 2003 Ok, pstrip.exe /s seems to almost work, but then I get the error that it can't create D:\\PowerStrip. (Notice the 2 slashes.) Any thoughts on why the extra slash is there?One note, I do have "Program Files" defaulted to D:\ via WINNT.SIF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geckotek Posted November 5, 2003 Author Share Posted November 5, 2003 Figured it out. In the WINNT.SIF I had: ProgramFilesDir=D:\but it should have been:ProgramFilesDir=D:without the trailing slash. Funny, the rest of my programs didn't have trouble. But I see a bunch of registry entries showing D:\\yadayada as a path. Well, guess I'm up for another reinstall.SO, pstrip.exe /s is the answer.

gosh Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 I've never tried to move the documents and settings or program files directory.Does anyone know if you can move either of those folders to a network share?In other words move program files to \\gosh2\d$\program files-gosh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XtremeMaC Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 i don't know but if you connect to the network share in winnt.sif, I don't see why it wouldn't be possible. U're the one with answers and time. I would try it if I was home, here I don't have a networkand in school(huge network) I'm not an admin I cannot install most of the apps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
