nLite shutdown during integration

I'm a first time poster here. I'm not real technically astute. Mostly just follow directions.

 

I hope this hasn't been answered already. My search found lots of questions/answers regarding shutdowns but nothing specific to my issue.

 

I have successfully made a slipstream of WinXP sp3 with just critical updates and thought I would try one with all updates. I downloaded the latest update file from WUD. Starting with my original XP sp1 disk and nLite, I inserted sp3 and the entire update list in the appropriate places. I made very few changes in the tasks area; inserted my product key, deleted foriegn languages and keyboards, and insterted time zone and region information. Nothing in tweaks. The integration went smoothly for a while including the WMP11 updates. Soon thereafter, a message came up that said "windowsmedia11-kb928788_x86-intl.exe-DLL initialization failed" and a second message that said that nLite needed to shut down yes/no. I clicked OK for the first and No for the second and the integration proceeded as it should.

 

I was able to make an ISO and a bootable disk. It loaded onto a virtual machine OK and seems to run OK except it does seem to run somewhat slower that the version with only critical updates.

 

According to Microsoft, kb928788 corrects an issue in WMP11 that might occur under certain circumstances. So, I'm not sure if is a signifacant loss or not. Also, if it is an update for WMP11, why didn't it get integrated by the WMP11 integrator like the others. Maybe that was the problem?

Yeh. I kinda figured something like that. I guess the question is: should I be concerned about it? As I said, the resulting disk booted and XP installed OK. Is there a work-a-round to get that file to integrate? The file doesn't seem to be of much consequence. However, without making a huge issue of it, I'm shooting for sort of an XP archive disk and it won't be complete without it.

I don't know. :unsure:

 

Personally I try all I can to have NOT WMP at all, which BTW I find to be one of the crappiest softwares around, and went VLC a looong time ago, but it is rare (well no, actually not-so-rare ;)) to find such a "narrow" and "insignificant to almost all practical purposes" hotfix:

In some cases, when you stream Microsoft Windows Media format video content across a home network by using the Media Sharing feature in Microsoft Windows Media Player 11, Windows Media Player may not work correctly.

 

Unless you actually plan to use the Media Sharing feature of WMP11 to stream videos (in MWM format, whatever it is) across a home network, it seems to me like you are pretty safe even without it, you know, like:
