Hi Ponch, thanks for your reply; actually, I had already used a clean set of files to produce the CD with the hotfixes, the same one that fails with the "NTDETECT failed" message.

Hello. I'm trying to make a custom windows 2000 CD using nLite 1.2 RC. I've slipstreamed w2k sp4, added some drivers, specified some options and booted the resulting CD. Up to this point, everything went fine. Then I tried to slipstream some hotfixes; I'm attaching the complete list at the bottom of this topic. When booting the resulting CD, the installation hangs in the very first black screen, with a "NTDETECT failed" message. I've also tried to use the "debug" version of ntdetect.com (link), to see what was the problem found by ntdetect, but no useful info came out, the result is still the same: "NTDETECT failed" message. Does anybody have the same problem? Thanks in advance! This is the list of hotfixes that I'm trying to add: Windows2000-KB917736-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB896423-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB917537-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB908519-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB917008-x86-ENU.EXE MDAC253-KB911562-x86-ENU.exe Windows2000-KB899589-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB904706-DX9-x86-ENU.exe Windows2000-KB905414-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB914388-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB896358-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB920670-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB913580-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB901017-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB921398-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB900725-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB896424-x86-ENU.EXE IE6.0sp1-KB925486-Windows2000-x86-ENU.exe Windows2000-KB921883-x86-ENU.EXE WindowsMedia-KB911564-x86-ENU.exe MDAC28-KB911562-x86-ENU.exe Windows2000-KB917422-x86-ENU.EXE IE6.0sp1-KB918439-Windows-2000-XP-x86-ENU.exe MDAC281-KB911562-x86-ENU.exe Windows2000-KB905749-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB890046-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB914389-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB908531-v2-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB920685-x86-ENU.EXE WindowsMedia9-KB917734-x86-ENU.exe Windows2000-KB899587-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB922616-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB917953-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB891861-v2-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB922582-x86-ENU.EXE WindowsInstaller-KB893803-v2-x86.exe OE5.5sp2-KB911567-Windows2000sp4-x86-ENU.exe Windows2000-KB901214-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB842773-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB920958-v2-x86-ENU.EXE IE6.0sp1-KB905495-Windows2000-x86-ENU.exe MDAC271-KB911562-x86-ENU.exe Windows2000-KB908506-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB920683-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB917159-x86-ENU.EXE IE6.0sp1-KB918899-Windows-2000-XP-v3-x86-ENU.exe Windows2000-KB893756-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB912919-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB911280-v2-x86-ENU.EXE Windows2000-KB899591-x86-ENU.EXE
