RE: I have just "slipped-streamed" SP1 inti XP pro. This seems OK. But then
I
took a copy of the MScorp.img file and poked it into Nero and supposedly
made a new XP (plus SP1) boot disk. However on loading I get an error msg
something like "unable to find NTLDR". What have I done wrong ??
From the step by step with pictures
http://www.windows-help.net/WindowsXP/winxp-sp1-bootcd.html
ISO Buster and Nero Burning ROM 5.5 (make sure you have the latest version,
but al least 5.5.9.0).
Start to extract the boot loader from the original Windows XP CD. Using ISO
Buster, select the "folder" Bootable CD, and right-click Microsoft
Corporation.img. From the menu choose Extract Microsoft Corporation.img, and
extract it to the folder on your hard drive where you have your Windows XP
files.
Next, start Nero Burning ROM, and choose CD-ROM (Boot) in the New
Compilation window. On the Boot tab, select Image file under Source of boot
image data, and browse to the location of the Microsoft Corporation.img
file. Also enable Expert Settings, choosing No Emulation, and changing the
Number of loaded sectors to 4 (otherwise it won't boot!)
Check the above web site against all your steps and see if its something
small that you missed....perhaps the Number of Loaded sectors?
