Got it resolved. Apparently the ENCRYPTION TAG should be se to OFF.

I was trying to setup a default password for Administrator in the unattended install but now I don't care. I just want to remove that error that is preventing me from this installation actually being unattended. winnt.sif ;SetupMgrTag[Data] AutoPartition=0 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes" [unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=Yes UnattendSwitch="Yes" TargetPath=\WINDOWS FileSystem=* Repartition=No WaitForReboot="No" DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore AutoActivate=No KeyboardLayout="US" OemPnPDriversPath="Drivers\006\SI3112r;Drivers\007\broadcom" [GuiUnattended] AdminPassword=* EncryptedAdminPassword=No OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=35 OemSkipWelcome=1 [userData] ProductKey=(I put my product key here) FullName="Mariusz" OrgName="" ComputerName=OPTERON848 [Display] BitsPerPel = 16 Xresolution=1280 YResolution=1024 [TapiLocation] CountryCode=1 AreaCode=732 [identification] JoinWorkgroup=WORKGROUP [Networking] InstallDefaultComponents=Yes [Components] msmsgs=off msnexplr=off [GuiRunOnce]%systemdrive%\install\start.cmdstart.cmd CLS@echo offTITLE Windows XP SP1 - Unattended Installation ECHO.ECHO Over the next few minutes you will see automated installations ECHO of various sofware applications, windows updates, and registryECHO tweaks being implemented.

Hi guys. I am so close to being done with my personal unattended CD. I have slipstreamed SP1 and SP2 into it, however, I cannot get rid of this error no matter what. I tried changing admin password in winnt.sif to letters, numbers, and a "*" with no apparent luck. Please help.
