Looks like the XPstp black package id corrupting your mmc and msc files.
Can you try the XPtsp Green Batch?
I have used this package with success.

No nlite tweak , just iso …
I have sufficient access to all…I’m the damn admin :)
if i go to the microsoft website and download MMC setup version 3 for xp , it will work… I think the patch got somehow messed up with that extension…i can access all other extensions except “.msc”

OOOOOOOOOOOOOKkkkkkkkkk…so ..here we go :)
Create a dir..copied the xp source into it , installed Xp thing thingy…or what ever it’s called…XPstp Black or something like that…installed drivers, used nlite to create iso..everything went perfectly…no errors , no nothin’… installed on vmware version 7 ..install ok…everything ok…until… (and the answer for the question whats behind door number 1 is….. ERROR…cannot find mmc bla bla bla..cannot open services.msc..gpedit.msc and so on..)

Which copy of XP are you using?(XP SP3 or SP2 ?? )
Are you sure about your nlite settings ?
You may have removed some components in nlite.

After the integration , i burned a copy of the windows…Next thing, format & install of the new windows :)
Everything was nice, i liked it very much…but there was a hick’up …after the install i coudn’t run any service with the .MSC ..(i.e.: services.msc, gpedit.msc and other services that ends with “.msc”). i fixed the problem by downloadin the MMC setup from microsoft website…My question is …WHY that happend?
