when using nLite to customize an installation, I added my CD key, and set the unattend mode to "defaulthide" I know this key works, since I've used it in a previous CD. That previous CD never prompted for the key. But for some reason, it's prompting on the new one I'm trying to make. I initially tested it on an OEM pc from Dell, and again with a VM, so I'm quite certain the problem isn't machine-specific. Winnt.sif and the last session file from nLite are attached, if that will help. Please help. WINNT.sif LAST_SESSION.INI

Is it possible to delete files that would normally form folders in C:\windows and C:\program files? (Basically, is it possible to follow Bold Fortune's guide, and use that to minimize the size of the Windows XP cd with his information?) Also, is it possible to integrate the MS User Profile Hive cleanup service, and some sysinternal tools? [page defrag?] Thanks for any answers.

The following is a copy of the modifications I made under nLite. I'm slipstreaming sp2, in addition to several hotfixes, and making many changes. Can anyone help me figure out why its failing to complete the tasks each time? ....................................................................................................
