"cannot copy USMTDEF" ...eh?

[mountainman]

Why not? I'm trying to copy all contents from an XP PRO install disk to my PC to work in nLite. It won't copy that file.

Anyonw know why? Anyone know a way around this?

Thanks.

Iso maker and virtual cd?

Virtual maker and Iso cd?

Does not always work, I like iso's, saves havin to put a different cd in the machine when moods change, 1080 gig of Hard drive space helps with this advice.

Btw, MM, my bad.

I gave a bud my winter jacket early saturday morning, so he would not crash at my house.

Lone and Behold....

Winter is here.

My bad. Not good flying weather for sure.

And.

I want my jacket back!, its freezing....Good for the beer,(Up side)

Are you trying to copy it yourself or is it being copied within the nlite steps?

Recovery disc or real XP disc?

make sure its clean, try another drive if you have 2 in the system.

Thanks, all. I did it by making an ISO and then extracting the ISO on my PC. I didn't see anything in nLite that could extract an OS disk. I guess I need to look closer.

I'm trying to make an XP Pro SP2 disk with all the fixes and such.

Thanks, again. :)
