xpfromcd problem

The following command fails when attempting to create a LivePC using an XP CD with the xpfromcd tool. I tried this 2 times with the same error--each time it indicated I post the command causing the error to the forum. By running that command separately, here is the output, which contains more info that I saw initially reported:

This is a known problem with certain install CDs

Hi Kibblesnbits,

Sorry about the inconvenience. Could you please let me know which Windows Installation CD you are using? Specifically:

Windows version, SP version:
Language:
Licensing:
Other special note?

For example, I am seeing the same problem with an Install CD with special Intel SATA driver in-house here. I wish to figure out whether it is the same problem.

If it is the same problem, I do not have a resolution at this very moment but at least I can investigate and find one... I will let you know when I find a resolution for this...

Thank you for trying the LivePC Engine and I am sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks,
-Gerald

CD info

Hi Gerald,

I was using XPSP2 with a corporate volume license key rather than retail. It may have been slipstreamed--I can't tell for certain. It is English. However, I don't have SATA drives, so I definitely wouldn't have added that into the CD intentionally.

Try this updated version

Hi Kibblesnbits,

You can try this updated version of the XPFromCD Tool.

The error you were seeing before should no longer happen.
