AutoStreamer Released! (v 1.0.29)

[Diffused Mind]

nLite has been able to do this for a while, and it does much much more. :sleep:

[paratrupr]

I don't like Nlite so much though...too many bugs. I like Autostreamer's simplicity, but would love the option to look for and add unattended files like winnt.sif and $OEM$ folders, and even an option to trim the unnecessary support and lang files and folders. :whistle: :shifty:

nLite is buggy:blink:k:

if you ask me, it i:):)

[SteelTrepid]

everything from msfn is buggy, can't we have nLite added to the crap list like msfn links already are so we don't have to hear about it?? AutoStreamer may not have the options but it's awesome just for simple slipstreaming.

Autosteamer doesn't work well on some OEM disks.

I have a dutch XP version on a Compaq OEM disk.

While I have no problems with autosteamer (no errors), the image later has. It already comes with that the upgrade option is missing, later it quits after typing the serial key with an dialog saying that it quit due to an unknown error.

Preparing:

Extract the ZIP file's contents to a local folder where you have sufficient permissions (meaning read/write). Do not extract only AutoStreamer.exe and do not double-click it within the archive. There's high chance things will go wrong.

Running:

First you have to select between CD or share mode. If you want to use your original xp cd as a source, go with cd mode. If you have a network share which contains the setup files, pick share mode.

Step 1:

--CD Mode: If you pick cd mode, AutoStreamer will attempt to read your pc's cd drives to detect any windows cds. If you have already inserted your cd in, AS will find it. If not, insert it, and click on the first magnifying glass icon to detect it. After detection suceeds, pick the service pack file by clicking the second magnifying glass icon. AS will attempt to detect what kind of file it is. If all goes well and its a valid SP file (meaning its the correct version, and newer than the source, it is valid) you will be ready to continue to step 2.

--Share Mode: Same as CD Mode, however, the first magnifying glass will prompt you for a valid hard drive location (local or network drive will do). Version detection works here as well. Again, you will have to pick SP file, and AS will verify that everything is good to go...

Step 2:

It's time to label the CD image. you can give any name you want. I usually name it WINXPSP2_EN or something... Next you have to pick the output file location... I use C:\WINXPSP2_EN.ISO...

I did What you've said but still I got a tiny iso file, I haven't seen any eerors when the program lruns all I have is a small iso file, what size should I expect when everything will go smooth I think that tiny iso file is not right please help....

[akaladis Veteran]

when you pick a source, it should report it size... can you tell me what AS detects on both source and SP?

[grifter510]

Operating system: Windows XP Family

Build: 5.1.2600.1106 (sp1)

size: 649MB

Service pack file

Build 5.1.2600.2180 (sp2)

those are the detected files when I run AS when finish I got a 54meg of ISO file I don't know whats wrong please do help me

[akaladis Veteran]

is the source a CD? if it is, it could be a read error which stops the file copy procedure (AS needs to copy the CD files to a temporary folder before slipstreaming)... Try copying the CD contents to a folder (i.e C:\WINXPCD) manually and see if there are any errors. If everything suceeds, start AS and select share mode (point to the folder you copied the CD files).

About the above-linked SP2 version, AutoStreamer says "Build: Unknown".

Can you help me out, raptor ?

For the "error 5" problem the solution is: DO NOT USE SPACES OR SPECIAL CHARACTERS (???? or others) INSIDE THE NAME OF YOUR AUDIOSTREAM FOLDER. It works fine (it's not a folder-name-lenght problem).

Hope to had been useful to someone !
