I got inro the whole nlite, virtual machines, and virtual discs, over the last year and after alot of messing around I decided to slipstream sp3 into my xpsp2. Everyting goes ok in nlite except for one warning it says that itmust remove some prexisting slipstreamed files to properly complete the process. Ive said yes to this and no to this several times but it makes no differance in the end. It goes through the process with no other glitches and successfully makes an iso with the added sp3 which im sure i got from microsoft. I wouldnt get it anywhere else.
When i try to install the iso on a virtual machine it goes through the first phase fine copying files for the installation, and it sees the virtual hdd np, so i install ntfs quick or slow makes no difference. Then as soon as it starts to install i get missing file hit esc or cancel. The first one is beep.sys then if i esc continuously it will skip about 150 files. I have the list if needed some examples are noise.enu, noise.dat, noise.ita. alot of files starting with kbdb and xptht04.gif & jpg they are sets liek a bunch will be pro_seg1 then 2 then 6 ect, ect. If i skip all the files the installation asks for my sp3 disk to get files.
Thing is that i searched for those files in sp3 i386 and they arn't there, none of them are. I also searched sp2 and none of them are there either. But like i said when i install with this xpsp2 i have no problems what so ever. I did however notice that when i install sp3 to my installed xpsp2 i cant open add or remove windows components, the file setupqry.dll is missing or indexing.exe cant load. I tried for a whole day to fix that to no avail.
If I take an older xp version with no sp2 or sp3 and slip in sp2 & sp3 those files arent missing, install goes well in vm. So i dont know im lost ive tried this over and over with different versions of service packs with different settings. But always the same result. Any help would make my day.
* just a side note when i tried in the past to make winpe or bartpe from this it also says there are files missing and cannot complete. Ive had absolutely no success with thos programs i get as far as the xp logo loading then i get a BSOD. Anyway i hop[e someone can help and im sure to have more stupid n00b questions. see crazy.rtf for list of missing files.
