yes I do have that line in the winnt.sif file the setup doesn't do any automation, I have to choose the partition, the file system, and eventually type in the product key. No different than before I had the winnt.sif file

I (thought I had) made a basic unattended install CD for win XP pro following the instructions from MSFN, however when I try to install, I am still asked to select partitions, and to type in the product key. below are the data and unattended portions of the winnt.sif file [Data] AutoPartition=1 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes" [unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended UnattendSwitch="yes" OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=yES TargetPath=\WINDOWS The winnt.sif file is in the I386 folder, and the product key is the one that came with the CD....any ideas would be appreciated. Finally, am I supposed to have done something with the unattend.bat file that wa screated with the unattend.txt I renamed the txt file and moved it to I386 but didn't do anything with the bat file. Sorry if this all seems a little simple to you, but this is my first atempt so I am learning from the bottom up. Thanks in anticipation. Ian
