When you use RIS on a Windows 2000 server to create a RIPREP image of Windows XP Professional Service Pack 1, you receive:
Failed to stop service
Remote Installation Preparation Wizard failed to stop one or more services. See RIPrep.log for details.
NOTE: The RIPrep.log is located at \\<ServerName>\reminst\setup\<Language>\Images\<Image_Name>\i386.
To fix this bug, replace the RIPREP files with copies from the Windows Server 2003 CD-ROM:
1. Rename RIPrep.exe, RIPrep.inf, and Setupcl.exe on your server at <Drive_letter>\Remoteinstall\admin\i386.
2. Restart your Windows 2000 server.
3. Open a CMD.EXE windows.
4. Insert the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 CD.
5. Type the following commands, pressing Enter after each one:
Expand <CD-ROM-Drive>\i386\riprep.ex_ <Drive_letter>\Remoteinstall\admin\i386\reprep.exe
Expand <CD-ROM-Drive>\i386\riprep.in_ <Drive_letter>\Remoteinstall\admin\i386\reprep.inf
Expand <CD-ROM-Drive>\i386\setupcl.ex_ <Drive_letter>\Remoteinstall\admin\i386\setupcl.exe
Exit
6. Remove the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 CD from the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive.
