Please do not double-post!

I found this tool extremely helpful in getting both XP as well as 7 to install from USB:
http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/120444- … -with-gui/

You can even create one stick that can install both (as well as some other useful stuff)!

Make sure to grab the latest beta - I found it to work just perfectly.

Installing from a flash medium as opposed to an optical/mechanical combination prooves to be much faster and less prone to burning/reading errors.
As long as you BIOS supports it, it definately is the wa to go, IMO.
Plus, carrying that stick around is much more convenient than a CD/DVD with case etc...
Additionally, some drives would dislike my DVD+RWs, but even using a DVD+R doesn't help all the time (or you have to switch vendors - I already am bruning them at no faster than 4x for compatibility's sake).
So far, the stick has worked in just every system I plugged it in...

Wim, has there been any response?
I've just been trying it again (mostly out of curiosity), and now it's failing on DriverPack Graphics A, DriverPack Sound A and DriverPack Sound B.

Could it be due to size of the packs?
So far, none of the smaller ones has been affected, as far as I can tell.

EDIT: And again, worked after several tries.
Interesting thing is, they either failed all or worked all in one go.

Seems to support the server overload issue theory.
The files themselves remain intact apparently (thanks to checksum test).

Just checked, does work neither with IE nor FF.

Works for me as well.

Heh, there's more:

This is how it looks like under Windows 7 (Classic theme):

And this is how it looks like under Windows XP:

As you can see, regular vs bold font, which leads to cut-off lines of text (that I could fix by deleting empty lines but that would reduce readability, IMO).
This may also lead to other text being cut off, haven't checked yet...

Want some official bug report for that or is it a feature?

German translation will be updated either tonight or by tomorrow...
Didn't notice this any earlier and never got around to keep the nightlies up tp date

Either try to write proper English OR proper German, not some mixture of both, that only makes it unnecessarily complicated to read and understand.

As the program is not provided by our team or a member of our forum, it's best to check the two websites stated in the first post for  further instructions and help.

I just removed four of you posts and closed one (because there had been an answer that explained to you quite clearly why "no" is the answer).
Do not open any more topics about this same issue or you can consider yourself gone.

Real-Life™ tips:
If you want folks to do you a favour, make sure not to annoy them by repeatedly asking again and again.
That will only slim your chances towards zero...

Hey, Jeff!
You know I take great pleasure in stopping by whenever time allows for it

I really need to loiter around in Skype way more often...
Missing all the great discussions.

At least I got your mail about the radio show (which, naturally, I still need to listen to...).

Try scanning your DriverPacks for errors using either 7-Zips archive check option or comparing MD5 checksums on the DL page with the files on your local system.
Maybe something got corrupted...

It's either that OR unattended install. Don't like it? Complain to MSFT about it.
Honestly, I can't even remember when I used repair last time - and then it was just to check out what it does.
I ususally find that systems in need of repair are so much fubar that the best idea is to setup them again, clean, with all updates and drivers applied.
Works faster, too, I think, because repair is not always going ti fix things from what I've gathered so it would require some manual intervention anyway.

YMMD, of course.

Very, VERY bad idea doing it that way around!
Honestly!
The first thing you should do if you don't already own an SP3 disc: Integrate the silly SP3 before you do anything.
Best is to use nLite for this if you are going to use it anyway.
So here goes, you start up nLite, select your source (disc in drive to have it copy over to the HDD), then select integrate SP and make ISo as the only options!
That ISO you can reuse for each iteration, so back it up somewhere on your HDD.
Now you can either mount the image using Daemon Tools etc or extract it using 7-Zip etc
Im probably not the only 1 who is struggling and would appreciate your help v much. and continue with the nLite process.
Reason for this is simple:
If you remove anything before SP3, SP3 may add it again, but incomplete, resulting in errors.
Reason #2: nLite can't set stuff for things not present.
SP3 was a major overhaul and some options may only be available if SP3 has been detected by nLite.
You could also integrate the update packs using nLite - why utilize more tools than you need to?
Keeps the error probability down, too.
I am not 100% confident, as I'm not using RVM's but Sereby's, but I think even that works with nLite, too.

Good luck!
