Hi, I use nlite and I want to create an addon that installs Devcon.exe (simply copy the files in system32, indeed) in my XP SP3. Can I do that only using the entries.ini files or must I add an inf files? Here is the addon structure I'd like to: Devcon.cab +DEVCON.EX_ +ENTRIES_devcon.INI ENTRIES_devcon.INI content: [general] builddate=2009/10/11 description=utilitaire de ligne de commande qui peut être utilisé à la place du Gestionnaire de périphériques title=Devcon version=1 website= ; fichiers à copier dans system32 ; gardent le nom complet même s'ils sont compressé tel que SYSSETUP.IN_ [dosnet_files] d1,DEVCON.EXE [txtsetup_files] DEVCON.EXE = 100,,,,,,,2,0,0 Is it ok? Plus, I didn't find a resource (i.e.:MSDN) that explains what 100,,,,,,,2,0,0 really means and how to use the syntax form to change destination directory? Have you got a link, please? regards

I solved my problem using an add-on (updated download link) that patches hivesys.inf adding these lines: HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VgaSave\Device0","InstalledDisplayDrivers",0x00010000,"vga", "framebuf", "vga256", "vga64k" HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VgaSave\Device0","VgaCompatible",0x00010001,1 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VgaSave\Device0","InstalledDisplayDrivers",0x00010000,"vga", "framebuf", "vga256", "vga64k" HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VgaSave\Device0","VgaCompatible",0x00010001,1 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VgaSave\Device0","DefaultSettings.BitsPerPel",0x00010001,32 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VgaSave\Device0","DefaultSettings.XResolution",0x00010001,1024 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VgaSave\Device0","DefaultSettings.YResolution",0x00010001,768 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F4867732A}\Video","Service",0x00000000,"VgaSave" HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F4867732A}\0000","InstalledDisplayDrivers",0x00010000,"vga", "framebuf", "vga256", "vga64k" HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F4867732A}\0000","VgaCompatible",0x00010001,1 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F4867732A}\Video","Service",0x00000000,"VgaSave" HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F4867732A}\0000","InstalledDisplayDrivers",0x00010000,"vga", "framebuf", "vga256", "vga64k" HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F4867732A}\0000","VgaCompatible",0x00010001,1 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F4867732A}\0000","DefaultSettings.BitsPerPel",0x00010001,32 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F4867732A}\0000","DefaultSettings.XResolution",0x00010001,1024 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F4867732A}\0000","DefaultSettings.YResolution",0x00010001,768 You can do it manually adding these lines in hivesys.inf just after [AddReg] entrie: HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VgaSave\Device0","DefaultSettings.BitsPerPel",0x00010001,32 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VgaSave\Device0","DefaultSettings.XResolution",0x00010001,1024 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VgaSave\Device0","DefaultSettings.YResolution",0x00010001,768 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\<i class="spip">23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F4867732A</i>\0000","DefaultSettings.BitsPerPel",0x00010001,32 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\<i class="spip">23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F4867732A</i>\0000","DefaultSettings.XResolution",0x00010001,1024 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\<i class="spip">23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F4867732A</i>\0000","DefaultSettings.YResolution",0x00010001,768 So, GUI-setup is now set to 1024x768 (you can modify this values). I use 1365VidChng.exe later in GuiRunOnce so that it sets the best display resolution for each computer.

Hi, I use nLite to build my XP SP3 and I test my setup with VirtualBox (Sun). I have tested 1365VidChng.exe (I renamed it VidChng.exe in my batch). I made an add-on that run at T13. Here is my batch: @echo off CD /D %systemdrive%\temp\ScrRes : Virtual Machine Resolutions, No Driver VidChng.exe 800X600X32@1 -q VidChng.exe 1024X768X32@1 -q : Laptop Resolution VidChng.exe 1024X768X32@60 -q VidChng.exe 1200X800X32@60 -q VidChng.exe 1400X1050X32@60 -q VidChng.exe 1600X1200X32@60 -q : Desktop resolutions VidChng.exe 800X600X32@75 -q VidChng.exe 1024X768X32@75 -q VidChng.exe 1200X900X32@75 -q VidChng.exe 1600X1200X32@75 -q EXIT It does the work ! Before batch, the resolution is 640x480 After batch, the resolution is 1024x768: But with this result... The all screen enlarged to 1024x768 but you can notice that the part of the 640x480 previous screen didn't enlarge but moved to upper left corner. Then, display is normal during OOBE process and I don't have to confirm screen resolution I don't slipstream Video Driver or other drivers. Somebody have a solution to enlarge the setup screen since VituaBox and most of system support at less 800x600? Set 800x600 in nLite options don't work for me. I think nLite use the winnt.sif tweak Or this is happen only with VirtualBox?

If you want to create an add-on: 1- Unzip the located windowsxp-kb905474-xxx-x86.exe with Winrar or 7z. 2- You'll get wganotifypackageinner.exe. Unzip it. 3- Now, just update this one, unzip it and replace its files with your located ones. You'll have to rename legitcheckcontrol.dll 4- Rebuild the add-on by compressing files with 7z or with the makecab dos command.

WGA: French download link updated to v1.9.40.0 (KB905474) windowsxp-kb905474-fra-x86.exe Bonus: French download link to PowerShell (KB926140) windowsxp-kb926140-v5-x86-fra.exe

Thanks I'll try that

Hello, I'd like to create a very simple add-on named for instance toto.cab structured like this: (this an example) Entries.ini SYSSETUP.IN_ EXPLORER.EX_ What have I to fill in entries.ini so that "SYSSETUP.IN_ and EXPLORER.EX_" will copy and replace original files to I386 folder? Can I make sure of those files are updated before they are used in the setup process?
