    @UsefulAGKHelper I have another idea how to preset it in registry. That will be much better then messing whole setup.cmd :)

    I already found the error apparently I have v1.6 and not v1.6.1 I will have to download 4 GB of v1.6.1 again and then replace v1.6.2

    @UsefulAGKHelper Can you try to integrate this REG file into boot.wim using NTLite to see if there is any difference?

    Unfortunately I am not at home and I don't have my laptop with me, I may return home tomorrow or the second day.
    When I get home, I will try to implement this on Ntlite. If I don't manage to learn how to do it, I will ask for more advice about this (as usual).

    @George King I know I may not be home, but I can still give you this advice:
    Regarding the registry priority setting, you can also do it from XP2ESD Build launcher by mounting boot.wim software hive into registry as "PESOFTWARE" and make it open the modified reg file (using ctrl+H replace command to replace "SOFTWARE" string with "PESOFTWARE" string so that you won't interfere with the host os) and then unmount the "PESOFTWARE" hive commit changes.
    I just wanted to ensure that the registry priority settings is still implemented even if NTLITE is absent.

    @UsefulAGKHelper I told you about NTLite as its easy option to integrate REG into WIM as is…

    Or do you think I don’t handle offline registry in my scripts? :D

    That's not what I meant. You can definitely handle offline registry in your scripts. I just wanted to tell you that It can also be done by editing XP2ESD builder cmd. That's all.

    Today VirtualBox 7 released, so I wonder if you can test compatibility on that (v1.6.3 development).
    (not risking doing it myself to prevent time waste)

    Yes, it shouldn't destroy compatibility. I tested in version 1.6.3 rc1 I have read that log.

    I'm currently reviewing Server 2003 processing with all possible ISO that I have. I found some issues and I hope I can fix them soon. Upcoming version with huge changelog should be at the end of this week probably :)

    BTW does XP2ESD drivers can be installed on Vista and 7 (and their server counterparts)? And if not, can INF be edited in order to install the drivers on aforementioned OS's?
