hmm, I thought there was a section on the unattended site that talked about using a program on the Windows XP cd to create a msi installation by monitoring changes on a fresh installation... but it's dissappeared (or maybe I'm just not typing in the right information in the search box!)

Anyway, I was wondering if there was a similar approach to create an .inf file that installs the changes made to an os (from a fresh install, like the .msi approach... reg entires, changed files, etc.). Or is there a way to look at all the changes using the .msi file? Can someone direct me to that guide for the msi creation method (I've looked... but nothing comes up, tried yahoo, google, microsoft.com... once again, I may be typing in the wrong thing)
