ok im trying to get this cdrom built and burned but i keep getting the same error messages.

i copied the xpsp1 cd files to c drive and tried to make the iso from there, no luck.

source files ,wrong versionfile version "c:\documentsand settings\administrator\my documents\xpsp1\i386\ntdll.dll" is 5.1.2600.0 should be 1045 or higher
you must use windows xp service pack 1 or server 2003 of windows.
huh sp1 hmmmmmmmm this is windows sp1 im using.

the second error is as follows,
the path you entered is invalid ("file c:\documents and settings \administrator\desktop\xpsp2\i386\setupldr.bin"not found.

i did try slipstreaming this but it wont build the file for some reason .
im still working on that issue.

so guys any other ideas
ty for the help

Hi idjit1956

Don't run pebuilder from a folder name which has spaces in it, like the my documents folder.

See more here.

I'd suggest extracting the contents of the ubcd4win and bartpe into a folder called C:\ubcd4win

Note that there are no spaces in the folder name.

This should solve your problem.

Thanks for that I new it was some thing simple I was missing
I just couldnt see the desert for the sand.

Hmmmmmm well i did as you suggested and im now geting the error:
source files wrong version.
File "di386ntdll.dll is 5.1.2600.0 should be 5..1.2600.1045 or higher
you must use sp1 or server 2003.
same as before
um when i use sp2 i get the following error the path you enterd is invalid files d:i386\setupldr.bin not found

hm i should add the sp2 cd was sent to me from M$ if that makes a diffence

and yes guy i am and have read other post on this
thanks for any light you can shed on what im doing wrong

So you are building the CD in a folder that has no spaces in the name and you are using an XP CD with SP2 integrated into it? Have you copied the CD to your HD first and pointed pebuilder to that location? Try that if you haven't, otherwise, please post how you built the CD in extreme detail. Thanks.

Ok,My slipstreamed cd is 582 megs in size so i guess thats rite now.
I was Reading another post on this forum that suggested that the size of the cd was to small.
i checked it was under 500 so i redid the slipstream and heyyyyyyyyyyyy presto im a happy camper now.
thanks to you both for your help

hmmmmmmm now i get the error build process is stopped there were 207 errors \ummmmmmm ill put the other machine on line and post the error log later for you to look at

My ISO for a integrated Win XP Pro SP2 is 627mb

The folder size with all the files extracted (WinXP SP2) is 618mb.

6996 files
205 directories

HHmmmmmmm thats not what i get but hey its seeing the cd and loading that part its the bart pe part of the build thats playing up.
it has to be something i'm, not doing or doing wrong.
i open the bart pe file and load tye cdrom (xpsp2) then load where everything is to come from as per tye destructions, next click build. All goes well untill it starts to load the bart pe drivers file then it errors.

ps im writing this at work. ill post the log later tonight.

Are you in the US? If so please email me, I really think you need some realtime one-on-one support. There is just something or a few things that you are not doing right.

AHHH your wife would hang you after shes drawn and quarted you steel. I live in New Zealand
