Yeah (I'm at work so I can't double check), unless I was way too tired last night and I was seeing things, I believe in brackets it says that QSC enabled is recommended for Method 1 and disabled is recommended for Method 2.

This conflicts with Jaak's tutorial that says "For DPsBase releases after 7.04, please ALWAYS use QSC. (You can Avoid a Bug this way.)"

All of the files I am using I downloaded from here: http://www.driverpacks.net/DriverPacks/

After following the tutorial, the only lines in the winnt.sif are (this is because I purposely made no edits or changes):

I'm trying to do this step by step to see where exactly its failing.....

Ok so here is the short of it, I tried editing my sif file, I tried doing the steps in the correct order and then I finally just followed *ONLY* what is in the tutorial (using all the latest driver-packs) and choosing method 2 (because I'm using every DP) and using the QSC because even though DPBase says not to use it for method two, the tutorial says to use it for all new versions.

I can still install in a VM just fine, but whenever I put the DVD (burned with nlite) into a computer to test, it hits the "Setup is inspecting your computer's hardware configuration" and goes no further.

The only thing that I can think of that would be causing this would be some sort of problem with burning the discs, but I dont know what I could be doing wrong.

I've created an unattended disc and when I load the ISO into VMware, everything runs as I expect it to, but as soon as I burn the image to a DVD and load it on to my computer I see the "Setup is inspecting your computer's hardware configuration" message appear and then dissapear and then nothing.

So here is what I have done:

1. Ripped my Source Windows XP SP2 OEM disc with nLite
2. Installed RyanVM updates and some addons
3. Slipstreamed ALL Driver Packs using "Method 2"
4. Used the Windows tool to create a .sif file
5. Used RyanVM Integrator to make an ISO (and when I ran into the problem outlined above, I tried creating an image with CDGUI)
6. Burned the image using Nero.


Here is my Winnt.sif file:
