i've run xpcreate numerous times so far but am getting three different error messges, each during different executions of the program.

sharing violation

all finished push enter - screen closes and nothing happens

cd not created

also is there a place where people could get a list of the error message numbers and see what the error is?

thanks!

[Glowy]

can you post your xpcreate.ini file here?
I think the solution for these two:

Quote

all finished push enter - screen closes and nothing happens

cd not created

is in there:

EXITQUIET=YES
DOCD=NO

Sharing violation can be the result of virusscanner and/or the missing line STARTSWITCH=/WAIT /MIN in xpcreate.ini

ok i think i'm ok now but have another problem. when program gets to the service pack part i get message that it's not a valid win32 program. i downloaded it from the ms web site. any idea why?

Does it give you the error when you manually start the SP?
if so it's probably corrupted. try re-downloading (disable all downloadmanagers)

Also, you could try copying *all* the files from your original XP cd to a place on your hard drive i.e.

C:\sources\XPCD

and then manually slipstream Service Pack 2 into that source using the command in a command prompt:

<name of the sp2 file.exe> /integrate:C:\sources\xpcd

[Edited with corrections - thanks peter ]

Then you can modify the XPCREATE.ini file to tell XPCREATE to use the source as C:\sources\XPCD instead of a cd.

This also means xpcreate doesnt have to intergrate the service pack which should speed things up a bit for you
