Slipstreamed XP SP2 installed and running fine on clean hard drive.

No problems until I try to install IIS:

Copy error:
Setup cannot copy the file staxmem.dll
...insert "Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 CD"...

So I insert CD, browse to i386 where staxmem resides but am continually
prompted for the file.

If I skip this file, I get same prompt for admexs.dll etc. etc.

Have tried redownloading the SP and pointing to extracted i386, still get
same errors
Have tried "updating" XP by rerunning SP2 setup, then pointing to
c:\windows\ServicePackFiles\i386, still get same errors

Defininitely bemused...

I am also having this problem.  XP Pro... installed SP2... tryed to
install IIS and get the exact problem with staxmem.dll.  I do not have a
CD though, I just downloaded the patch and installed it.  The default
directory for the prompt for staxmem.dll is c:\windows\ServicePackFiles\i386

Any luck with this one yet?

Thank goodness I'm not the only one.  I've been having the exact same
problem!  I've been pulling my hair out.

The weirdest thing about the problem is it seems to be machine depenent.
On some machines, it works no problem but on others the problem crops up
(exact same image).  Also, I've discovered it's not just IIS but any of
the Add/Remote Windows Components.

If anybody finds a solution to this, please post.  Thanks!

I'm also having this problem. Does anyone have a solution
for this yet?

In the system event log I have a corresponding entry from
Windows File Protection saying:

"The system file c:\windows\system32\staxmem.dll could not
be copied into the DLL cache.  The specific error code is
0x00000000 [The operation completed successfully.
].  This file is necessary to maintain system stability."

So why is WFP rejecting the SP2 file?

I have solved the problem when I run
esentutl /p %windir%\security\database\secedit.sdb

Then the setup worked correctly.

Good luck
