    That is just strange. I only tried on one computer - will try on another one with a clean install and report back.

    I just tried it on my laptop that has a brand new reinstall of XP on it. Same problem. That is really strange - could it be XP related (although I did see the post about you having used it succesfully on XP). Any way you can make a version that doesn't check the version and leaves it up to the user to use a good iso?

    Well, I just installed XP in a virtual machine and now the channel switcher runs without a hitch. I have no idea why it doesn't work on my computers but works in a VM. Maybe somebody else can figure it out...

    Well... essential isn't proplus. Only office proplus, project pro and visio are supported. And the visio is the msdn visio, so if there are different visio editions it's only visio premium that's supported.

    So does this mean I don't have to include the msi files anymore? Only the differences in a bspatch file and let bspatch change the files?

    Thanks, I thought about adding other editions to it but couldn't find the volume files for it.
    But adding all the msi files won't increase size that much because I compressed them to a solid 7zip archive, and a good archiver (and surely with solid archives) also saves only differences between simular files.

    So where did you find them? And I think I'm going to include the xmls and cab parts in the 7z also. Probably that brings down filesize and I don't need to write all the xml editing code for each product.

    What files are causing the problems? Maybe if the structure of the bspatch files isn't that hard you can do it mannually.

    I have only 3GB.
    It seems it loads the 2 cabs in ram to compare and somehow likes to multiply it also. But than I wonder why it doesn't use the swap file
