Hey guys,
Not sure if this is an option I missed or what, but I have Windows X64 currently installed on a machine, and have slipstreamed a brand new CD with nLite to install Windows. When I tried to install a clean copy of Windows over the old copy, usually Windows Setup will detect the installed Windows and ask you if you want to repair the old copy or overwrite it (deleting /Documents and Settings and /Windows). This new slipstreamed CD detects fine, but never provides that option. Anyone know why?

Austin

Try with the Unattended mode set to Repair Prompt mode, it will cause it to stop before the drive selection so that you may choose extra options like Repair or Delete old OS.
