[Basic unattended install issue]

MAZMORBID.....Thank you very much for all your help. Seems that if you bypass the regional setting screen, the key works...just like it did for you. Tested and key is correct after install.

Thank you again for your help!!!!

Are you sure your Product key is valid?

Positive. I can enter it manually and it works. I'm going to try to bypass the key page, like you have and see if it works that way.

I know you can skip the product key as I have done it and it works, but I didn't use nLite.

EDIT: I thought it might have been because of the "UnattendMode=ProvideDefault" but I just tried this with my finished version that being the only thing I changed and it still skipped the product key ...

Interesting, did you add something to the winnt.sif file to bypass the product key?

Not really sure but have you tried with UnattendSwitch="Yes"?

Yeah, that did not work either. Very strange!

[Basic unattended install issue]

No I have not. I will try it right now.

Hello Everyone,

Not sure what is going on, but need some help. I haave put together a slipstreamed version of xpsp3, the install works great. The problem that I am having is that I can't get the key to auto populate. I have edited the winnt.sif file please see below. The key works like a charm when you enter it manually. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
