Package install...

Lately i've had a few packages that I create in my build environment lockup my build machine and then generate a "KMODE_EXCEPTION" BSOD. Is there anything in particular I should look for? These have been small regular packages such as Winzip 8.1 SP1.

Thanks,

Bryan

Bryan, i am not sure what method you are using. I usually use os snapshot. Just like you i've seen instances where my repackaged apps would blue screen the machines. Now when i build my packages, i always reboot after the initial install, then run the "post install snapshot". Of course when i open the project in Developer i go in and clean up the settings that were captured during the reboot, garbage stuff like tcp/ip setting, devices detection at boot time...basically garbage. Now many of my blue screening problems are history.
Dynamox,

Thanks for the info! I have been doing that, the few packages that I had that were doing that I recreated. Everything appears to be fine now.

Thanks,

Bryan
