@ infernal...just from my personal experience...having done everything as you said you done it right...i think if i were you...i would re-download the file again and burn it with the slowest possible speed using imgburn burner or any other burners of your choice.

but do a clean install and hopefully all will be good.

Unfortunately, the file you downloaded might be a corrupted and it does happen sometime.

Did what you said, still same as before; not working

[humbert]

Have you chosen to burn IMAGE [NOT DATA] ?
Look at this picture of BurnAware .. You should choose the option "Burn Image" and then, browse for the ISO file you have downloaded ..

Hey Ahmad - what screen capture program did you use to get that image? Or is it highlighting the image and using Ctrl-PrintScreen or something?

[Ahmad]

Hey humbert.
I didn't capture anything. I found it on the BurnAware site and just put its link in my post using this code:

Code Select Expand

[Infernal]

No solutions to my problem then?

[Ahmad]

For me, I don't know more than that.
Sorry.

I'm concerned that this image lacks MSTSC (Remote Desktop Connection) and many other system files as follows: "3waregsm.sys", "3wDrv100.sys", "3wareDrv.sys", "aec6210.sys", "aec6260.sys", "aec6280.sys", "aec68x5.sys", "aec6880.sys", "aec6897.sys", "aec67160.sys", "aec671x.sys", "aar81xx.sys", "aar1210.sys", "adpu320.sys", "a320raid.sys", "cda1000.sys", "ASH1205.sys", "ADP3132.sys", "aacsas.sys", "aac.sys", "ahci6xx.sys", "ahcix700.sys", "ahcix70r.sys", "ahcix80x.sys", "arcm_x86.sys", "asahxp32.sys", "m5228.sys", "m5281.sys", "m5287.sys", "m5288.sys", "m5289.sys", "cpqcissm.sys", "cpqarry2.sys", "hpcissm2.sys", "cercsr6.sys", "hpt3xx.sys", "rr62x.sys", "rr64x.sys", "hpt374.sys", "rr172x.sys", "rr174x.sys", "hptmv6.sys", "2310_00.sys", "rr232x.sys", "rr2340.sys", "272x_1x.sys", "274x_3x.sys", "rr276x.sys", "hptiop.sys", "hptmv.sys", "rr26xx.sys", "rr2644.sys", "rr2680.sys", "ipsraidn.sys", "nfrd960x.sys", "adp94xx.sys", "inic162x.sys", "iteraid.sys", "iteatapi.sys", "MegaIDE.sys", "symmpiv.sys", "megasr.sys", "megasas.sys", "MegaINTL.sys", "sas2xp86.sys", "symmpi.sys", "iastor.sys", "raidsrc.sys", "iastor2.sys", "iastor3.sys", "iastor6.sys", "iastor7.sys", "mv61xxmm.sys", "mv61xx.sys", "mv614x.sys", "mvsata.sys", "mv64xxmm.sys", "mv64xx.sys", "nvlegacy.sys", "nvatabus.sys", "NVATA.sys", "nvgts6.sys", "nvgts7.sys", "fst376xp.sys", "ide376xp.sys", "fastsx.sys", "sptrak.sys", "fttxr52P.sys", "fasttrak.sys", "fast2xxp.sys", "s150sx8.sys", "ulsata.sys", "ulsata2.sys", "prfsx4xp.sys", "FTTXR5_O.sys", "FtTxR54P.sys", "ql2100.sys", "ql2200.sys", "si3114r5.sys", "3124r5A.sys", "3124R5A2.sys", "3132R5C.sys", "3132R5C2.sys", "3132R5C3.sys", "3132R5C4.sys", "3132R5C5.sys", "pnp649r.sys", "pnp680r.sys", "Si3112r.sys", "si3114r.sys", "si3124r.sys", "pnp680.sys", "si3531.sys", "SI3112.sys", "si3114.sys", "si3124.sys", "SI3132B.sys", "SI3132B2.sys", "SI3132B3.sys", "SI3132B4.sys", "SI3132B5.sys", "SISRAID2.sys", "SISRAID.sys", "SISRAID4.sys", "viamraid.sys", "VIAPDSK.sys", "VSTXWDC.sys", "VMSCSI.sys", "amdbusdr.sys", "amdide.sys", "atiide.sys", "jraid.sys", "mvxxmm.sys", "mv91xx.sys", "nvraid.sys", "nvatard.sys", "nvgts6r.sys", "nvgts7r.sys", "nvrd327r.sys", "siside.sys".
OK, most of them are drivers, but still. This is NOT clean version, it IS modified.

@ Deele:
Welcome to the forum.

Yes, it's modified but for the better.
This is what Maher says on his releases and what does he modify in them:

Windows XP Professional SP3 (x86) Integrated November 2012-Maherz

Download

This is the original Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP3 (32-bit) ISO (Volume License) including Microsoft updates until 14.11.2012, Internet Explorer 8, Adobe Flash Player 11.5 and SATA drivers.

- This release is the best you could find on the net, because it's just simple:

* NO tweaks or add-ons.
* NO additional programs and software added.
* NO graphics, scripts and wallpapers added or changed.
* NO serial needed during installation, the key is already inserted.
* It's the original image from Microsoft except added updates, IE8, Adobe Flash Player (11.5.502.110) and SATA drivers!
* Windows Messenger, MSN Explorer and Internet Explorer 6 were removed.

So, since he removed what is written in RED, then it's normal to find missing files because they are of no need.

@ Ahmad:
Hi.
That just means, I can't use this version to install it with BartPE, since it is corrupted. Damnit, will need to use other version.

Hi
It's not corrupted .. It's the same as the original except for those differences.
But if you want the original untouched image from Microsoft [Without updates nor SATA drivers] or if BartPE requires that, download the torrent file from attachments .. and for the serial:
