If trying on a network share without the ability to change files could be another possible cause.

Yeah, that would do it too... Have you tried the tutorial provided in Jaak's sig?

I hope you are trying to slipstream a copy on hard disk, not a CD.

Do you have a winnt.sif inside the I386 directory? If so, is it a plain text file?

Also, does the directory you're working in have read-only access? You won't be able to slipstream anything if you can't write to the directory.

EDIT:
Another thought that crossed my mind is that it could also indicate that you're running DPBase from a directory that is read-only. I believe that there is another backup file created there.

Hi there,
I trie to run your nice tool DriverPacks BASE.
I downloaded all of the driverpacks, started DPs_BASE.exe and clicked me through all of the options. But every time I started to integrate, the critical error "Could not create a backup \I386\winnt.sif occurs.
I tried a few different settings (method 1 and 2 etc.) and tried an other pc but got every time the same error.
What am I doing wrong?

Thx for your help and thx for your work with that program!

Greetz,

Tulkas
