Another nifty tidbit I forgot to add…

To resolve missing hal.dll, read this thread:

The answer is covered in detail there. Edit boot.ini after install and set the correct drive and partition.

No script engine associated with .vbs fix:
Replace all instances of “CSCRIPT.EXE” with “CSCRIPT.EXE //E:vbscript” in usb_prep8.cmd and Mount_TempImage.cmd.

Hello Kiko,

there are no reasons no to work on a 1005HA but I myself have not tried it on such EeePC.

Could you please try and let us know anything you notice on your 1005HA?

Thanks a lot in advance,

The ZizziBaddi.com Staff

Remember that the first choice has to be TEXT install and then after the first reboot, the second and third choice have to be the GUI install and you should never remove the USB Flash (or change the USB port) until Windows is properly installed and running

Hope this helps!

Ok, cool. Remember that it is better to extract an ISO version of Windows rather than extracting a real CD (that you have burnt) or you can use an original Windows CD but the ISO version is much better for obvious reasons.
