My company is wanting to participate in the "Designed for XP" logo
program with our software product. I am following Microsoft's
"Designed for Microsoft Windows XP Application Test Framework"
documentaion found in their download "framework111.exe". I have NOT
been successful with thier instructions beginning on page 15.
I am using:
Duron 1200 Processor
MSI KM4M (MS-6734) Motherboard
512 MB RAM
Western Digital WD400 Harddrive
MSDN XP Home w/SP2
I partitioned the HD as follows:
c: FAT 100MB
d: NTFS 2000MB
e: NTFS 30000MB (Also tried 15000MB)
f: NTFS 6000MB (Safe Boot)
I installed Windows 2000 Professional successfully on drive F:
I copied the "support" folder (containing the scipts from the
"framework111.exe" file) onto drive C: under a manually created folder
named "\XPLOGO".
I then modified the unattended.txt file to include our MSDN activation
key, again - located on the "FAT" C: drive under the \xplogo
directory.
While in Windowss 2000 Professional I go to "Start" -> "Run" and key
in:
"F:\> g:\i386\winnt32 /tempdrive:E
/unattend:c:\xplogo\unattend.txt" (page 18)
It begins copying the installation files.
On the left margin of this GUI:
it completes "Collecting Information" then
completes "Dynamic Update" then
during "Preparation Installation" it auto reboots.
<AFTER REBOOT>
<I am pressented with a "Dual Boot" screen with 2 options. It defaults
to "Windows XP Setup" the other being Windows 2000 Professional. I let
"Windows XP Setup" be selected by allowing the countdown to select
this highlighted boot option.>
The monitor displays "Searching for previous versions of windows."
<I now get the following message>
Setup was unable to verify drive E.
Your computer may not have enough memory to examine the drive, or your
Windows XP cd may contain some corrupted files.
Press enter to continue
<I Pressed Enter>
Setup was unable to verify drive C.
Your computer may not have enough memory to examine the drive, or your
Windows XP cd may contain some corrupted files.
Press enter to continue
<I Pressed Enter>
Setup cannot access the cd containing the windows xp installation
files. To retry press enter. If you are not successful after serveral
tries, quit setup and to restart setup copy the windows xp
installation files to your hard disk.
Now, I have tried different motherboards, and a different AMD Duron. I
have tried different versions of the MSDN XP Home edition CDs. I even
downloaded from MSDN a new ISO ("MSDN XP Home w/SP2") a couple of
weeks ago. Still problems.
Will the MSDN images work for this?
One more note, a regular install (boot from "MSDN XP Home w/SP2"),
installs fine with the same hardward depicted above.
Any help would be greatly appreciatied!
Thank You
