![]() If this fixes the problem I won't be able to know which fixed it (repartition or clean CD source) but I don't want to go through the install process twice if not necessary purely for diagnostic purposes. I think I will also delete and repartition the drive I plan to use for my system disk, just in case because I saw in a non nlite related forum somewhere that a possible cause was an install over a previous install. Ok, I will retry with a clean CD source and make the separate process change you suggest. Please be sure to let us know when you figure it out. I don't have an idea why you are getting the access denied unless it has to do with reusing your source - could be. If you are comfortable (as I am) that you have a good disk, this should work fine for you. ![]() I use VMware Server and just do a quick format of the partition I am going to install to. I don't think you need to repartition or delete your partition to start with. ini and the _U.ini and if you change the name, make sure the first part is exactly the same for both. As 5eraph pointed out, all your previous Last Sessions are in the Preset folder with time stamps. What I do is save a copy of my Last Session in a separate folder with a meaningful name (I am running two different configurations). The Last Session will save all your options/tweaks/etc. Reusing a source that has had nLite run against it usually leads to bizarre results. When I started using nLite, I copied my CD to a folder which I don't use except to copy all the files/folders into my Working folder before I start nLite. Do you place it into the Administrator group? My reference to a fresh copy of your source, simply means to start with a fresh copy of your CD files/folders. I see you are defining an Autologon user. You can turn it off in a running machine by going to Folder Options (Control Panel). I don't think this has anything to do with your problem, but it exposes a Windows bug. Your Last Session looks OK to me, except you need to remove the Tweak "Explorer-Launch folder windows in a separate process". I would like to not repeat that effort every time.įlaviss, Sorry, I got confused concerning which disk you were being denied access to and thought it was the D. Additionally, even if I use new CD files is there a way to save the options used for the last session? I am not familiar with many of the features and it takes me a long time (2hr+) to go through and look up the ones I have questions on before deciding to disable or not. How would I go about using fresh files? Since my first use of the program it has not prompted me for any new files. I didn't use a fresh set of files for my nlite disk, although I did finish in 1 session and use only 1 service pack. If I just delete and reform that partition and re-install do you think it would work? I installed over it and let the install disk just format the drive. ![]() However I skipped deleting and re partitioning the drive I had my previous install of xp sp3 on. I did pre-partition and format the drive I wanted to use for my program and document and user profile files. Under the security tab on properties I have 'administrators, creator owner, everyone, Flaviss, system, and users' listed and have checked off allow for all of them - still no access. , properties, and help' available and 'make partition as active, format, and delete partition' grayed out. I have 'open, explore, change drive letter. I went into the disk manager but when I right click the drive I am denied access to, there is no option to import. Or is it as simple as I should have deleted and repartitioned my previous install partition and thats what is screwing me up? I would like to know if anyone has a clue what went wrong to get me started in looking for a solution. If anyone can instruct me how I will be happy to provide it. I would provide a log of what I did with my nlite disk, but I do not know where I get that. I dont remember exact error but can probably reproduce if necessary. I have tried the changing owners thing and it doesn't work. When I tried to point some of my software to the system disk ( C: ) and not where the program files and documents/settings was pointed to (other partition D:) I got an error message that access was denied. I installed over a previous install that I did not previously delete and re partition during setup, although it was formatted during installation.Įverything worked ok, my screen resolution setting didnt work and it wasnt quite unattended because I forgot to enter things like workgroup and such but it installed I got all my drivers up and I started installing software. ![]() I experimented with doing an installation that directed my program and documents and settings files onto a separate partition (XP sp3 slipstream). I am new to the unattended and nlite installations. ![]()
