I recently found nLite. I created a slipstream of XP Pro w/ SP3. Source CD I have been using a couple of years and it puts files on the hard drive so to change font sizes does not require CD. Installations using my new slipstream disk require the CD to change font sizes. What files am I not selecting or setting I'm mis-selecting to copy over all necessary files? It is looking for files in the D:\i386 folder.

Cant tell without last session ini. Did you slipstream SP3 on a unmodified XP with NO service packs or anything on it? thats best anyway.

Copy your i386 folder somewhere on hard disk and point that location in registry.

Detailed procedure here.

Installation did not put an i386 folder on the C drive. Did I miss a setting? I am using a CD that had SP2 slipstreamed to it. You are saying I should use an original XP CD without any service packs?

Thanks for your responses.

You need manually to copy your i386 folder from XP disk you just slipstreamed (the one with SP3) to anywhere on hard disk and then to adjust registry.

Cheers

The disk I used as a source was a disk I have done over a hundred installations with and it put a copy of the i386 folder on the root of C. Is there a setting that changed that does this or did I miss something? If I keep a copy of the folder on the network I can't access it till I install drivers and join the domain.

For any one interested. Used Run Once to create i386 folder on root of C, then copy d:\i386 c:\i386.
