Hello I have recently bought a new 320GB HDD and want to put XP on so I am using nlite to try and create a disk that is bootable with SP3 on it however when it all appers to work fine and the .iso is created and burned to a DVD no problem however when I am asked for the product key (in the XP installation, I can get that far ) i type the product key as stated on the yellow product code label but installer tells me that "The CD Key Which You Entered Is Invalid. Please Try Again." what have i done wrong??? Please help me I have tried several times now but to no avail Many Thanks Morty! P.S. I'm new around here so hello all!
