Is it possible to build XP image with MUI that was released separate? (no Windows XP official edition, just MUI for English)
Yes. I have ran XP2ESD v1.6 test builds on Windows 11 22H2 (22621/2). Also, if that makes a difference, my VirtualBox is installed in my secondary hard drive.
@UsefulAGKHelper How many free space do you have on that drive? Before starting you should have around 50GB free space as minimum.
@George King Here are the logs. There's also my modified Auto-sysprep.cmd where I had to activate xhci alongside existing ehci support on the "modifyvm" command (for VirtualBox) with the scope of allowing the usb 3.0 drivers to be detected and used in the xp installation.
XP doesn't contain any XHCI drivers itself so XHCI for syspreping is useless. Captured system is in original HW support as it was created. All new HW support is added after that
@UsefulAGKHelper USB3.x should be installed using SDI automatically from included ported collection after deploying image. Btw, every driver in captured image is reinstalled to get universal image. So even if you installed it in VM manually before Auto-Sysprep does its job, it will be removed. To get USB3.x installed automatically by system require true USB3.x addon and driver INF too because then in must be in relationship with layout.inf. if anybody create it, it's fine. But for me it's waste of time. Main goal is to get original XP / 2003 captured (that is currently how it's done), because we need to cover like 20 years of future
@George King I just found out that for me VboxHeadless.exe (listed in autosysprep.cmd) is not working for me so I have to use VirtualBoxVM.exe instead.
@UsefulAGKHelper Yes, it takes few minutes. But remember it's done only once before capturing. @MilkChan This problem doesn't exist on Professional distro. This must be in some policy or settings
@George King Yes, the problem is the exact the same under win7 Sp1 and XP Sp3. With the previous version I can start a second run, because it was noticed, that the XP.iso with integrated files was already build and also the *.vhd. Can you set this back in your new version, so I can test this second run again Dietmar
I need to catch whats wrong on your side. I tried it now under XP and I succed on first try (I expected it). And I havent changed anything in this way from preview3. Can you PM me exact ISO you used to install XP on your machine + apps list, tweaks etc?
@George King I forgot to say this yesterday but regarding XP2ESD POWIS Launcher, is there a way to make the timeout disabled once any modifications are made to the options just like in bootmgr/ntldr so it can give us time to modify our settings without pressure from the timeout? For the timeout to be back, a restart is needed just like in bootmgr/ntldr. If there are not any modifications to the options, the timeout will remain and automatically starts up setup after 30 seconds. I'd like to know if modifying the timeout to 0 on settings.ini disables the timeout or not.
