hey all,
i used vlite too make an vista install disc with all updates before sp1, with sp1 and all the updates after sp1 until September. the install files is 5.10GB and vlite says there may be problems trying too install vista if the.wim file is bigger than 4gb. splitting the image through vlite doesnt work. how can i make the new updated vista install disc work? i wonderd if i can just burn the files using nero to a dual layer disc with certain settings may work, but hey, i have no idea what to do to make this updated install disc work! please help... thanks in advance |

You could always use WAIK to split the image size into smaller pieces...

Use commend:
Imagex /Split install.wim install.swm 2000 then erase the install.wim file  |

QUOTE pre-sp1 updates, sp1 Pre SP1 & SP1??? There is a HUGE problem there and where all your extra size is comming from. Simply remove all pre sp1 files and redo the process. |
