I'd narrow the problems down to a certain set of addons -- there's an AVG8 installer somewherere around here (I'd make an appointment with mr. Goog L E Search. above and ask him about the problems with those addons)
Nero has always been a prat. Plain and simple. there's a thread somewhere around here for doing Nero and such.

But thanks for posting the info about your nLite config. Everything seems kosher with that. I'd check your addons.

(read for the classic forum-er rant.)
As a rule of thumb, spellcheck is also a nice feature. "disk" not "dosk", "VirtualLTek" not "VertualTEK"

On another front, no you cant make the installers just wait for the user input after windows has installed. This would mean modifying the installers. Many of them in fact bubble up for user input _before_ they've even installed and some even come up for air after they've started the installer process. Its just how they are.

Have you also tested them in some kind of Virtualized environment? I'd suggest for a fast and free one, try Microsoft's Virtual PC 2007 -- it can handle most installs nicely. If you want more control and dont mind a large download, try Sun's xVM VirtualBox. http://www.sun.com/virtualbox for more info.
