When trying to boot into XP embedded i get to the First Boot Agent then
Windows just reboots. No errors, nothing. when building the image i get no
error and two warnings one of which is "R: Warning 1116: Building
unreleased component: "devices [Version 1.0, R2]" the other is that i'm
using the 180 day trial.....I'm only including basic Windows functions in
the buidl i.e. NTFS, Explorer shell, and Windows media functions. Is their
something i'm doing wrong. i watched and followed the video on the XP
embedded site but i cant boot into embedded.
 
Ok...That you for that bit of info, i only haev one problem now. Now do i
find out the drive letter from Real Mode? It's not like i can boot into DOS
seeing that all my paritions are NTFS. Is their another way to figure it
out? Thanks Again.

Did you look at the fba log in the runtime at .\windows\fba\fbalog.txt.
Usually if the drive letter is incorrect fba will tell you what drive letter
it was supposed to be, you'll see it all over the log.

Also, if you need help understanding the drive lettering scheme, this is
explained on various web sites I'm sure, but the first partition of the
first HD is C:, the first partition of the second HD is D:, the second
partition of the first HD is E:, .......
