I was a bit too eager. It worked except for a OEMScan error in the virtual machine. I assumed the error was related to the fact that there was no SLP 1.0 in the BIOS for VirtualPC. To make certain, I installed in my real pc this morning and it gave the same error. The log files shows that it is looking for the windows folder on the d:\ drive and then fails the pre-activation because it cannot find that folder. Needless to say, the images worked 100% as separate editions. This error only occurs when they combined using PowerPacker. I'm still trying to find any files on the image that would allow me to point OEMScan to C:\. Any help with this would be appreciated.

Tried it. Works excellently! Only issue is that the boot menu shows XP Retail for both OS's that I combined. I selected OEM in PowerPacker and it accepted it by showing the correct value at the bottom in blue. However, it did not keep that setting. I did figure out how to manually edit the .ini files and managed to fix it. I really appreciate your help. Thanks.

I read through the guide and I can't find any further info on how to make a multi-boot XP DVD with integrated driverpacks and OEM BIOS files. I can make a multi-boot XP DVD with no extras using PowerPacker. I can also make a XP Pro or Home DVD with OEM BIOS files (OEMscan) and driverpacks. But making one DVD with XP home and Pro multi-booting, with OEM BIOS files as well as driverpacks is still a problem for me. I've read through the forums here, at Siginet's forums, MSFN, mydigitallife and one or two other places. Unfortunately, it seems as if this DVD can be made, but the info is not being shared. If anyone here has any help on this, I would really, really appreciate it.
