setup cannot find winvblock
winvblock.ima is present in VHD_XP_Setup\makebt folder and would have been copied next to XP-1.vhd
when you used VHD_XP_Create.exe to make Grub4dos menu as usual.

ok can i integrate sound-a and sound-b?
Posted 21 January 2014 - 12:30 PM
For Sound and Video I personally prefer to use:
Auto run of DriverForge at T-9 to add uncompressed driver folders in $OEM$\$1\Drivers
and use that for my well known Audio driver as described in Section 2
http://reboot.pro/to...hd/#entry172481
But if desired you can use DPsBase as used for the other 5 DriverPacks,
but it is a rather heavy load to extract all these (probably unneeded) Sound drivers during XP Setup.
Instead you can also decide to use DriverForge after XP Setup and point to folder D\S with extracted Sound drivers.

Personally I use RyanVM Integrator
RVM_Integrator_1.6.1b2.1.exe - http://cpu.reboot.pr...c.php?f=9&t=601
http://integrator.si...ex.php?download
Always first use RyanVM Integrator and then use DPsBase to Improve your XP-Source
This aproach works in combination with WinNTSetup v3.1
I have no present experience with nLite but it might be that nLite is not compatible with WinNTSetup v3.1

RVM Integrator is very old (2009)
but nlite (2013)
i will try to integrate using nlite and leave a comment

This is well-known behaviour and there is no solution yet.

There was an error in the Grub4dos menu in versions 80 and 81.
I have just uploaded the corrected version 81
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Posted 27 January 2014 - 08:33 AM
@Basel SayehCan you test version 81 and report if Black Screen Fix of TXT-mode XP Setup is working OK for you.Can you test the two methods for Install of XP in VHD1. using XP Setup from Selected ISO file2. using WinNTSetup3 to prepare NT Setup folders
ok
Posted 27 January 2014 - 09:43 AM

Posted 27 January 2014 - 09:48 AM

Hey there,
i've a problem, i could not install XP in VHD...
the farest i can get, with XP iso in RAM (when i don't load iso in ram i get 7B BSOD) is to the XP TXt Setup screen where to pick the Disk to format...
there is just that the 2gb Disk could not be used...
i've tried on different Harddisks, internal, external, even on the boost stick itself...
most of the times i have problems earlier, i get boot from cd is not possible with code 1 or code 5... sometimes the screen then gets full of some cryptic signs...
any help is very appreciated
Posted 26 February 2014 - 12:57 PM
I've now tried to load both the iso and the vhd into the ram.... after that i can past the disk selection screen... then the Drive will get check'd, after that the setup files should be copied... but there the setup say's the xp setup files couldn't not be found anymore...
Posted 27 February 2014 - 01:02 PM
Did you integrate Chipset and MassStorage DriverPacks in your XP Setup ISO as described in Section 2 ?
http://reboot.pro/to...tall-xp-in-vhd/
Use DPsBase.exe to Integrate DriverPacks Chipset + Processor + MassStorage + LAN + WLAN DriverPackswhich will then be located in OEM Folder in your XPSOURCE folder.(settings Disc - Method 2 - GuiRunOnce - Enable KTD for the DriverPacks I will Select)
It makes no sense to use the --mem option in your modified Grub4dos menu.
You want to Install in VHD, so it must be on harddisk and not in RAM.

Hi wimb!
Why f-secure 9 says that there is virus?
Thanx.
Posted 28 May 2014 - 12:57 PM
AVAST also saw VHD_XP_Setup_85.exe as a threat, which is however a false positive.
Anyway I recompiled the programs and Uploaded the new VHD_XP_Setup_85.exe
Now AVAST finds it OK. Can you check if f-secure 9 is happy with the new version.
Download VHD_XP_Setup_85.exe http://reboot.pro/fi...tall-xp-in-vhd/
Thanks

i get this message after selecting vhd to in install xp "Windows Cannot access XP installation CD"

How did you prepare your XP Setup ISO file ?
Do you use winnt.sif file and was it made according to sample given in XP-W7-Setup\XP-Setup\winnt_sif

Hello Wimb and everybody,
and thanks for this helpful tutorial.
I've always wanted to find a way to boot from VHD and it worked!
Despite of the inital success (it took me a couple of days and many tests,
but at the end the VHD boots fine), I'm having problems installing the drivers.
First of all, without installing any driver, the resolution is fixed to 640x480.
This is strange as the same setup ISO, installed onto a normal partition,
works natively up to 1024x768. What could be the cause of this?!?
I proceeded with the drivers then, and at reboot I got the Stop 4E error.
So I'm almost there but I need some hints/help to get the drivers working,
hopefully without the need of testing them one by one...
Other curiosities: on my mobo if I load the iso in ram the setup cannot
find the XP setup CD. If I load it normally I can installe everything.
Tried to put the vhd file in subdirectory VHDBOOT and booted correctly
a couple of times, then the VHD got corrupted.
Tried to put the vhd file in a drive other than C and booted correctly
a couple of times, then the VHD got corrupted.
Tried to run the USB_XP_Fix.exe on the bootable VHD file an it ended up
with "SYSTEM" as the only available user and no option to log off or change user.
Hopefully this method will become more stable and practical for everyday life.
I would love to be more partition-independent and have more XP/7/8 VHD images to
boot from!!!
Ciao,
Virgus
PS Has anybody installed an Ubuntu on a VHD file and booted with Grub?
Is there a "certified" how-to like the one Wimb created for us?
I'd love to have a partition just from VHDs and choose everytime what OS to boot from.

This is normal when you have have minlogon checkbox selected.
It is the default case which best suits universal use.
How did you prepare your XP Setup ISO file ?
The drivers must be integrated as 5 DriverPacks according to Section 2
http://reboot.pro/to...hd/#entry172481
Use DPsBase.exe to Integrate DriverPacks Chipset + Processor + MassStorage + LAN + WLAN DriverPackswhich will then be located in OEM Folder in your XPSOURCE folder.(settings Disc - Method 2 - GuiRunOnce - Enable KTD for the DriverPacks I will Select)

Can you please provide me a direct download link of already prepared XP_SP3 Setup ISO file with integrated UpdatePack and DriverPacks ?
