I just spend hours f***ing around with this peice of crap. I can't beleive such a fine program cannot handle being loaded from a share...

anyways here was my experience

i downloaded the lastest version 1.4.5 installer and installed to my mapped network drive (mapped from \\<server>\<sharename>\) T:\nLite\ but when i tried to run the program i got 'an unexpected error has occurred' and the typical 'do you want to send an error report to microsoft'.

After an hour of googling i begun to think i was the only person on the planet with this problem and after looking for alot of alternatives to the (awsome) nLite i started back as basics and tried to think what i was doing wrong. I said 'right ill do everything by the book' - good thing i did too because for some stupid retarded reason the developers of this program require this thing to be run from the LOCAL HARD DRIVE.

So i installed it to c:\program files\* like it wants to be installed by default and she started first time. Sigh.

Good game developers. Thanks for a great program but seriously, a bit of testing or some warning that this program doesnt like being run from a network share - i mean why provide a self extractor if you cannot run it from any location??? I would love to sit this on my network share with my iso and build files for all my techies to access... but now i cant. A major failing in this software imo.

Thanks for a great slipstreaming tool though - i really do love it!

If you read any of what i wrote at all moron you would have read that i did try to find another solution but was unable to find something of the quality of nLite.

Not to mention uninstalling software and install a different peice of software is not really a solution to a problem of being unable to load specific program. It's a work around.

Nice attempt at trolling though, you've graduated to primary school mentality. Congrats.



Hopefully this post will help some other poor las that searched the forums or googles like i did with the same problem sometime.
