Just a note to THANK YOU for this latest update to XP.

I had not built an XP installer since last December, so it was time. So far the testing seems to be successful, and all is well in the XP world.

Best wishes from an appreciative user in Atlanta.

Just wanted to say this DEC 2013 One Piece pack works great, and it really makes XP a fully-powered OS with the DotNet Frameworks and everything else. Thanks very much for your talented creativity as well as your gracious contribution to all of us in the XP community. Your work is much appreciated a...

Is anyone else seeing this? 1st time for me with latest pack.

Using the same tools as always, nLite. Always worked OK before...

5eraph! Thank you again, my friend. I can't help but wonder as another generation of Windows has been unleashed upon the world, how much longer do you think you'll make this required update for XP64? I embraced W7 at a new job I took in March 2011, and have put W8 on my main desktop and laptop Core ...

mark strelecki

Once again I (we) owe you thanks for your technical talents and gracious ways.

Your friend in Atlanta Thanks You.

Thanks again for a stellar creation. You are one in a million, 5eraph! This Dell Latitude E6510 came with Windows 7, but with a little help from a Dell enterprise Wiki page, I found all the drivers for XP64 and they work GREAT. I'm guessing your time for creating these wonderful XP64 update packs ma...

mark strelecki

I've experimented with other apps that were supposed to put the XP setup files on a USB but was never successful getting them to work. I am working mostly with WIN7/8 now, but XP holds a very special place in my technical heart. I'm gonna try the "78 page special" and see what happens! Already got m...

mark strelecki

Your talent is immeasurable, your intellect divine.

I am in awe of your abilities and gratified by your graciousness.

You, 5eraph, are a GOOD MAN among men (and women).

Thank you very kindly from your friend in Atlanta Georgia, USA.

Just a quickie to say that 2011_3_1 is working fine (again!), and THANK YOU VERY MUCH for your devotion to this platform. I'm sure others are wondering about your continued motivation to maintain this sterling update pack, what with the messianic arrival of W7. I tried W7 on the laptop, but XP64 jus...

Many thanks again from your friend in Atlanta and my Acer laptop that's returned from WIN7 to XP64 and working great! You are the best.

mark strelecki

5eraph - Thank You! The Acer Core2Duo laptop is singing your praises and working like a TOP! Soon, a Core i7-920 desktop will be doing the same. ONLY YOU help secure the future for XP64, and I am grateful for your talent, kindness and generosity, now and always. Many thanks from your friend in Atlan...

Just another quick Thank You for the QFE 1.4.4 package. My older P4 Toshiba laptop is working GREAT and running like a top.

Did my first test of your wonderful UpdatePack on my Acer laptop and everything works GREAT. In the interim, I installed Server 2003 with OnePiece's updatepack and had issues with stuff OTHER than OnePiece's creation, so I "fell back" to the venerable XP64 and am thrilled to say I LOVE THIS STUFF. <...

Thankfully I checked back here after doing my data backup JUST IN CASE. I downloaded 1.38 and used it with my Black Viper TWEAKED profile in nLite. Everything is working WONDERFULLY so Thank You Kindly from Atlanta GA.

Unless you have some overriding reason to trim space from the install media, I would suggest NOT removing drivers with nLite. I've been using Nuhi's fine application for years and I figured out a LONG TIME AGO that the less I removed, the better. Now, instead of removing services I turn them OFF. An...

I found a resource that may pass muster. ftp://ftp.asus.com/pub/ASUS/misc/ide/NVIDIA_MCP82XE_MCP72_AHCI_RAID.zip This appears to be identical to the one I just used to make my XP install with QFE 1.3.1 work without BSODs.

OK. I got it working. Here's my report: The nVidia nForce drivers from version 15.45 did NOT work, and the modified (newer) version by Fernando also did not work (BSODs as mentioned above). Fernando got his driver from a version 15.52/15.53 fileset, published by a French website and originating from...

mark strelecki

@newsposter - Good observation, had not thought of that. These drivers are vintage Summer 2009, so I wouldn't necessarily call them "too" new, but you may be on to something. Thank you for that smart idea. My experiment back-revving nVidia AHCI drivers with QFE 1.3.1 is STILL NO-GO. Now, instead of ...

@Tsusai - I have the EXACT same issue, BSOD 19 in ACPI.SYS at beginning of text-mode setup. I was using newer nVidia AHCI drivers (that worked fine with update pack 1.2.9), and am now back-revving those drivers and rebuilding the same configuration setup disk to test. THANK YOU for reporting your pr...

mark strelecki

5eraph - First, let me say THANK YOU once again for your tireless devotion to keeping the flame of XP64 alive and healthy. It is ONLY your efforts that keep this platform up-to-date and usable from the initial point of installation. We don' need no steenkin' Windows Update.... Second, it is this wee...

mark strelecki

@jsp - It was unclear from your messages whether you are running nLite multiple times on modified sources of XP, but you should definitely NOT do that. I have used nLite hundreds of times over the past four years and I have found that if I run nLite more than once on a set of XP setup files, strange...

mark strelecki

Just a quick THANK YOU and to say that my Core2 Duo laptop is singing your praises. I had no idea they could DO that.... <grin> I see the WINVER date of Feb 16, 2010, making this THE latest version of XP you can get anywhere. I LOVE the Clean Install, 'cuz all updates and patches are rolled together...

Between UH and 5eraph I don't know if I HAVE enough Thanks for all your hard work and devotion to XP users worldwide....

But I'm working on MORE THANKS as I type this.

mark strelecki

Uncertain for that version of the Mass Storage DriverPack, but there are NEWER versions, including BETA versions, that SHOULD have all the drivers you need. Let's put it this way - I use the latest Packs I can find and I haven't met a computer I can't boot from either CD/DVD or USB flashdrive. I onl...

5eraph, your awesomeness knows NO BOUNDS. I am always interested in how these updates affect the "Winver date", the system build date as shown in the winver dialog.

phox -

If your suspicions prove correct, and IE8 and WMP11 ARE included in XP SP4, it'll be be just one more reason to keep the status quo and move forward with SP3 and trusted update packs.

I for one hope you're wrong on this one.

Best wishes, otherwise!

Gordan - Are you using a fileset that has been previously modified or are you using a "clean" source? In my years of using nLite, I discovered long ago that I MUST start with an unmodified (by nLite or other utility) set of Windows setup files. Performing multiple passes on the same files with nLite...

Great conversation, and apologies for my tardiness. I have been using nLite and DriverPacks for a few years and wanted to share what works for me.

mark strelecki

roirraW "edor" is correct that ONLY SP3 should be slipstreamed in your example scenario. Keep in mind that service packs are CUMULATIVE, so SP3 contains everything SP2 did, as well as SP1. It would be a duplication of effort to stream SP3 over SP2 over SP1, and in my mind would risk breaking somethi...
