re: missing files SOLUTION Sunday, March 6, 2005 at 5:00 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Mike L (2 messages posted) Yes, this is true. I can almost guarantee that the CD you are using is a Genuine 100% pure legit copy of Windows XP with SP1 or SP2 integrated. The key portion being SP1 or SP2. Microsoft, evidiently didn't test their own images to see if they would function when an unattended installation is launched from DOS. This is the only circumstance where you will see the issue. You can boot to the CD and run an installation fine. You can even run an unattended installation launched by booting to the cd with a winnt.sif file on a floppy. If you have a copy of Windows that exhibits this issue, burnt or original, you will have to recreate the CD using the instructions I posted in February. Trust me... :) On Sunday, March 6, 2005 at 4:47 pm, J. wrote: > >That's not true.
