Has anyone seen this problem? I installed Autostreamer via the installer version. When I launch it It starts the windows installer fot Roxio EMC 7, why? If I hit the cancel button on the installer 3 or 4 times Autostreamer starts & runs fine. It does this on 2 of my desktops but not on my laptop. I do have Roxio EMC 7 installed on the machines in question. Any Ideas?

Thanks,

I believe Roxio EMC took over the installer format. Go to My Computer > Tools > Folder Options, and on that list search for the extension that Roxio took over.

That's not the case. MSI and MSP are the only file types associated with Windows Installer. Even if I double click on the AutoStreamer.exe file it starts Windows Installer. If I let it continue it starts the Roxio install. If I click the "Cancel" button on Windows Installer, (have to click 3 to 5 times and wait), the Windows Installer aborts and THEN AutoStreamer starts and runs normally.

This is really wierd, any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Problem solved!

What I had to do was download and install Microsoft's installer cleanup utility, (msicuu2.exe). Run the utility to cleanup Roxio Easy Media Creator 7. Reinstall Easy Media Creator 7 and patch to 7.1. All is now ok. My guess is that the web download and update patch for EMC 7, (run in the last several days), left garbage behind. Why it started "only" when I ran AutoStreamer is still a mystery.

If anyone is interested, I have a new installer that uses the Windows Installer available for download:

I uploaded a new build of the installer.

Changelog:

-If Windows Installer 2.0 or higher is not found, the installer will download and install it for you

-Fixed WinXP SP2 lockup problem

-Fixed some installation destination problem

-Fixed support site launch problem

If anyone finds any bugs in the installer, you can email them to me at [email protected]. Thanks! :D

Hello.

I downloaded and used your program to slipstream SP2 into Windows XP, but the .iso it created is 766MB and won't burn onto an 80 minute CDR.

Is this a common problem, and if so how can I resolve it? My original Windows XP Pro CD was 677MB.

Your "original" XP CD was probably actually slipstreamed with SP1 already, as if you slipstream and XP SP1 CD with SP2, there are many leftovers files it doesn't get rid of, thus having too big of an ISO. I would suggest using a true original XP CD as that should be no more than 505MB I think and probably around 600MB with SP2. :)

Hello people!

p.s=Flish, you better update the first post soon!!

Can anyone tell me is it possible to use this with your currently installed Windows PC? I lost my CD, and was wondering if I could create the CD straight off of my PC (point to C:/Windows???

I thought thats what "specify own windows share" meant..

Not working =(

    • AMAZON needs to take total accountability for this.
    • Server Summit had a heap of announcements, ADCS changes are baller.
    • Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
    • Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more by Sayan Sen Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 last week as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. While Microsoft has so far not acknowledged any major problems with the release, some users online are running into problems. These range from OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. The most common one seems to be happening with HP systems wherein affected users say they hit 0xc0430001 BSOD (blue screen of death) error code after the KB5094126 update. We wonder if this could be related to the recent bug we covered on HP devices wherein the ongoing Secure Boot certificate updates are leading to similar issues. While we are not certain, users affected by this issue likely need to ensure that the boot.stl file is included on the installation media (such as a USB installer or ISO), if the above-mentioned dynamic updates are deployed. If this file is missing, computers may fail to boot from the installation media and could display the error 0xc0430001. This STL file is used by Secure Boot to verify that the boot files are trusted, so it must match the same Windows version and system architecture. To ensure the file is included, Microsoft recommends using the Update WinPE script, which automatically updates the image and handles the required files. Alternatively, you can manually copy the boot.stl file from the Windows\Boot\EFI folder on a Windows device and place it in the matching folder on your installation media before deploying the updated image. Aside from blue screening some users also note their systems have been freezing following the update. This could be happening to Lenovo PCs specifically. In the case of the OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, a user figured out that there could be a conflict with UAC. He explained: "Okay, so I did some digging, and in our environment KB5094126 breaks OneDrive and Dropbox in Explorer. I went through all our GPOs and found out that the combination of disabling UAC and having my user being a local admin breaks OneDrive in Explorer. ... If I enable UAC again, then it works, even with KB5094126 still installed." Hopefully, Microsoft will look into these issues.

    • It is when it's a desktop in my house though for a PC that's lightly used and not really important when it is. If it was a laptop, it would be a different story. The real solution is varied and begins starting at post #22 in that thread.
