now after completion do not burn it to cd one of the more annoying things about nt based setups is the time it takes copying files. You run setup, setup copies files. Setup reboots and copies more files. Setup reboots again and then starts installing. Despite all the changes windows has seen since nt4, it still uses this outdated method of installing. One of my best unattended secrets is to bypass most of this copying; saving time and disk space. I have only revealed this secret once, but never fully explained it.

Type winnt32.exe /noreboot. If you get any errors at this step, see Note1 at the bottom.

Once XP Setup comes up, go through the prompts, make sure you say you’re doing a clean install (not upgrade). At the “Setup Options” screen, click on “Advanced Options”, and make sure “copy all installation files from the CD” is checked. If it’s grayed out – that’s fine.

After setup finishes closes, on your c drive you will have 2 folders. These folders are hidden by default, so make sure you can see hidden files and folders in folder options:

C:\$WIN_NT$.~LS – rename this folder to install
C:\$WIN_NT$.~BT – rename this folder to BOOT (all capital letters)

Now copy the BOOT folder into the install folder. In the Install folder, delete the size.sif file. In the BOOT folder, delete winnt.sif and migrate.inf.

If you want the cd to say “press any key to boot from cd”, put bootfix.bin into your BOOT folder.

If you want to do an unattended install, rename your unattend file to winnt.sif and put it in the BOOT folder.

Next, in the BOOT folder hex setupldr.bin. Replace the word i386 with BOOT (all capital letters), your hex editor should make 4 changes.

Next, in the c:\install folder we need to make the cd identification files. From your XP CD copy win51, win51IC, win51IP (and win51ip.sp1 and win51ic.sp1 if a slipstreamed cd) to c:\install. If it’s a slipstreamed cd you also need spnotes.htm in the install folder.

Your c:\install folder should look like this:

QUOTE
Directory of c:\install

10/08/2003 06:58 PM

.
10/08/2003 06:58 PM ..
10/08/2003 06:58 PM I386
10/08/2003 07:52 PM 2,048 xpboot.bin
08/23/2001 09:00 AM 10 WIN51
08/23/2001 09:00 AM 10 WIN51IC
08/23/2001 09:00 AM 2 WIN51IC.SP1
08/23/2001 09:00 AM 10 WIN51IP
08/23/2001 09:00 AM 2 WIN51IP.SP1
08/23/2001 09:00 AM 11,387 SPNOTES.HTM
10/08/2003 06:58 PM BOOTLastly we just need to make the boot sector. Download http://home.online.no/~msols/xpboot.bin and save it in the install folder. Hex edit it, and change i386 to BOOT.

Change from:

QUOTE
…h…G……….F…..F………….r..a..v…….]…..$………………SETUPLDR.BINBOOTFIX.BINI386……………………………………

To:

QUOTE
…h…G……….F…..F………….r..a..v…….]…..$………………SETUPLDR.BINBOOTFIX.BINBOOT……………………………………

Now build it. Using cdimage.exe type the following command:

cdimage -lXPSP1 -t08/23/2001,09:00:00 -bc:\install\xpboot.bin -h -n -m -o c:\install c:\xpsp1.iso

Benefit of this method is that XP installs a LOT faster.

There is only 1 limitation to my method – you cannot do upgrades, ONLY clean installs. But then again, how many people use there unattended cd to do an upgrade?

Note1: If you get an error such as “setup has been disabled”, you will need to install the xp application toolkit. One situation you would get this error is if you are installing win2k on XP. Download the xp appcompat toolkit at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details…&DisplayLang=en. Install it, then go to start > programs > Microsoft Windows Application Toolkit > Compatibility Administrator Tool 3.0. Once opened, click on Applications > Windows 2000 > on right hand side right click on winnt32.exe and disable it.

Note2: If you don’t feel like download the appcompat toolkit, simly rename windows\system32\ahui.exe to something else. When done, rename the file back

ON CD MY WINDOWS XP IS ONLY 238 MB LET ME KNOW IF U WANT THAT.

ALL SUGGESTIONS ARE WELCOMED

We all are here to learn and knowledge grows when spreaded so dont feel anything just tell me how u like it any your suggestions to it.

If you want i can tell you how to make a windows xp live means run windows xp directly from cd or usb. let me know if u need anything.
