hello i have been playing around with different stuff i got the setup to work with winsetupfromusb but i couldnt get the $OEM$ folder to work so i tried usb mulitboot 10 and that did the trick but it only seems to work with a fat partition which is ok but everytime i restart my pc it asks me what i want to boot to it gives me 5 choices of xp and a usb rescue how can i get rid of that???

i am having a similar problem i have tried lots of different things i used usb multiboot 10 and usb xp setup and winsetup from usb winsetup from usb was the only one of the 3 that i could get to boot and it loaded my unattended xp just fine except it didnt copy my apps from the $oem$ folder but i know that the folder works cause i loaded it from a dvd and it went fine but i have office pc's to load it on that dont have dvd drives if anyone can help i would greatly appriciate it

i have a 4 gig flash drive and i have tried many different methods that i have read about but the only one that worked didnt preserve my nlited install but did a very minimal install i was wondering if anyone knows of a way to install my nlited copy of xp with all my changes from a thumb drive i know it works from a dvd but i dont have that option on all my office pc's

i apriciate everybodys help i got it it works now preactivated but i thank evrybody for thier help

ok thank you for that link but that doesnt help i use home made computers and have a store bought copy of windows xp pro

that link goes to a thread about regedit i didnt see anything in it about preactivation unless i missed something

i have an xp oem disk ive got all the slipstreaming stuff down pretty good but how can i make it preactivated like a corp cd so i dont have to worry about activating it??

i thank you for your help but i am very new to this i havent written batch commands since dos if you could give me a little more info i would greatly appriciate it

i have built an xp cd with nlite and followed the directions on adding office and it worked great but it has to go on a dvd because its almost 2 gig but some of the pc's i need to install it on dont have dvd roms so i need to know how can i span it over multiple cdr's im hoping it can be done i know other versions of xp like media center has more than 1 disk thanks in advance
