After one week: is there anybody who has this pack..?

Thank you.
I searched but it seems I didn't search properly, sorry sad
Looks like I will make it Attended, since there is no other good solution...

Hi.
I'm trying to make a XP installation CD with serial number and Mass Storage drivers included.
Without Mass Storage drivers winnt.sif looks like this:

; Generated by nLite 1.4.9.1

[Data]
Autopartition=0
MsDosInitiated=0
UnattendedInstall="Yes"

[SystemRestore]

[GuiUnattended]
OemSkipWelcome=1

[Components]

[UserData]
ProductKey="XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX"

[RegionalSettings]
LanguageGroup=1
Language= "0409"

[Networking]
InstallDefaultComponents="Yes"

[Identification]
JoinWorkgroup="WORKGROUP"

At this point it prompts me to repair, it shows Eula, prompts me to format the partition and to choose regional settings. It's exactly like I wanted.

After integrating Mass Storage drivers winnt.sif looks like this:

; Generated by nLite 1.4.9.1

UnattendedInstall="Yes"
	MsDosInitiated=No

[Unattended]
	DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore
	NonDriverSigningPolicy=Ignore
[GUIRunOnce]
	command9="%SystemDrive%\DPsFnshr.exe"

But it doesn't prompt me to repair, it doesn't show Eula, it doesn't prompt me to format the partition (just installs over) and to choose regional settings.

In Nlite if I choose "Unattended=DefaultHide" (until now I have chosen "PromptRepair") it allows me to format the partition and I can set regional parameters in winnt.sif. But it's not enough.
If I erase "DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore" and "NonDriverSigningPolicy=Ignore" from winnt.sif all is fine (it prompts me to repair, Eula, format etc). But I think it will generate other problems...

My question is: how can I build a XP installation CD with serial number and mass storage drivers included that prompts me to repair, shows Eula, prompts me to format the partition and let me choose regional settings?

I know, this seems like a question for msfn forums (nlite section) but I'm asking here because integrating mass storage drivers triggers the problem.

Thanks in advance for any reply.

Best regards, Cosmin3

Hi.
The link for "DriverPack Mass Storage 10.10 for Windows 2000/XP/2003 (x86)" (http://driverpacks.net/driverpacks/wind … 0/download) is broken...
Can you please fix it...?
Thank you.

Hi.
I can't download x64 drivers (broken link)...
Could someone please update it...? Thank you.

because every file read or written is virus scanned...

Thank you for your reply.
I understood that.
I guess there are a lot of accessed files during slipstreaming to cause such a speed drop...

A suggestion: you could show a warning in the program's interface about that.

Best regards, Cosmin3

Sorry for the double post.
I found out why there is a time difference: last time I deactivated my antivirus (Eset Nod32) and forgot to reactivate it.
I understand 20..30% difference, but not 1500%. Does someone has an idea why..?
And why is such a big difference between those 2 log files..?
Thank you for any reply.

Best regards, Cosmin3

Hi.
Until a few days ago I used DP_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32_1006.7z The slipstreaming took about 15 min.
Today I switched to DP_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32_1009.7z. The slipstreamin took about 1 minute and the log file is half size.
I don't complain about been so fast big_smile but I'm just checking.
I took the same steps with nlite, I integrated the same files (not drivers). Just before creating Iso I used your program.

It doesn't matter - probably its' temporary...
Regarding the problem with the driver: I still don't know what to do - maybe to try an older one... big_smile

To OverFlow: I did check Google first but I didn't find anything usefull. And in OEM is the one from Vista not XP. Vista works fine but XP not.
In driverpacks it's the latest driver (8.6.0.1007 from 09/12/2008). All I could find are old drivers: 8.2.0.1001 from 05/07/2008 on acer.com and 8.5.0.1032 from 07/20/2008 on http://komku.blogspot.com/2008/12/acer- … p-and.html

To mr_smartepants: I don't think so. I tried 3 times + another 2 right now. You say that I misspelled "iastor.sys" 5 times...?
I'm using Opera browser but I tried also with Mozilla Firefox - same result.

Hi.
Sorry for my bad englsh.

I searched this forum for "iastor.sys" and it says "Your search returned no hits."...

A friend of mine bought 2 Acer Aspire 5735z laptops.
I have set SATA in Bios on AHCI.
I installed XP SP3 with DP_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32_901.7z integrated.

But sometimes when is working on them my friend gets this message:

http://img523.imageshack.us/img523/946/problemecalc2.th.jpg

I don't think it's a problem with Sata controller but with the driver.

What can I do...?
Thank you for any help.
