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.

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.

doesn't it just feel great when u solve your own problem :) lol

I had the same problem my programfilesdir was = d:\program files\

guess I'll change it too

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

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 network

and in school(huge network) I'm not an admin :rolleyes: I cannot install most of the apps :D
