customized installation of win Xp (Pic)

[mnezor]

Yes it Works ! ! !

I made a customized fresh installation from the service partition to my TP.

My r60 was shipped before 6/2006 so the Base Software Administrator doesn't work.... but I didn't want
to a fresh installation all this scraps-programs..that cames with ...

So finally..

I boot with a boot-cd
I used E.B.C.D. www.ebcd.pcministry.com

I used Volkov Commander and go to the hidden partition (yes now it isn't so hide )

go to /RECOVERY folder and look for files XXXXXXXX.CRI (with CRI extension )

This files is just Ascii files with informations for the programs/drivers to be installed.

There many. Start to view each file to see what program/driver installs.

example: CKD203A.CRI if you open it you will see somewhere

.......
........
.........
TargetPart=C:
IncludesExtra=
Description=Change IBM Logo in OOBE and OEM Logo in System Properties to Lenovo
Source=BUILD TEAM
Version=19.0
........
..........
........

then if YOU don't want this installation of program/driver/hot fix ... just change the
extension of the file to CKD203A.CRIBAK

Do the same with the rest of the . CRI files.

then reboot press the thinkvantage button and make a factory system restore.

It will install exactly what you want.

USE THAT AT YOUR OWN RISK

I TEST IT SO FAR ONLY TO MY R60.

Best regards
MneZor.
