Were I you, I'd have a close look at the source that I'm trying to nlite from just to make sure that the original, RTM, or SP1/SP2 version of dbghelp.dll is there. The msft debugging engine in XP and Server OS is an unholy mess and pretty much always has been. There are also as many versions of dbghelp.dll as there are kinds of SDK releases. Lots of information on dbghelp.dll on msft and msdn. Most, if not all executeables will load but fail to start if this system DLL is missing or has been deleted. In reality, dbghelp.dll is an essential part of the runtime debugger.

Rick, I've seen people delete dbghelp.dll thinking that it's part of an imaging program, "Windows Image Helper". If you want me to slipstream SP2 onto the original disk's files and send you something out of the compilation, let me know. (FWIW, AutoStreamer wouldn't even recognize that the original disk had an OS on it. As much as I hate to accept defeat, I have to believe that there's SOMETHING about the Dell CD that nLite/SP1/SP2 isn't compatible with. Once I got the new CD with SP2 already applied, I haven't bothered with the original disk. I tried several times with new copies of SP1 and SP2 but no go. If I start over and slipstream SP2, usbehci.sys is corrupted. But the installation fails saying that VGA.SYS is corrupted. If I slipstream SP1 onto the disk, nLite sees the hotfixes, removes them, and appears to run fine through the ISO. Kinda pointless since I end up right back where I started, though, with a pre-SP1 installation. My experience with the original disk was that if I start with the pre-SP1 CD and DON'T slipstream anything, it works fine. Could that change the IE things back after nLite first removes them?
Savage xr setup files are corrupted install#
I built a new clean ISO this morning and let it install while I was at work. Printers and Faxes appear as link on Start Menu (told nLite to not display it) Network Connections appear as link on Start Menu (told nLite to not display it)

Marketplace is not removed from IE Favorites No Quick Launch (actually, I think default is no Quick Launch and nLite doesn't provide for turning it on)
