Awesome. You are now my new favorite person on this forum.

I am certain that the image is of Windows xp x64 pro with Service Pack 2. My system is x64, and i am really running on xp pro (the 32 bit version). I've used nlite several times before also, and I can't make sense of this either. I have to touch the computer twice during the installation. To pick the partition, and to enter the key (the same one i put into nlite). I'll double check some settings in VMware. LAST_SESSION.INI

I don't think there is a very reliable way to do that. Everytime you want to change something you should re-start using a new image to ensure that all goes well.

Okay... I'm using XP x64 Professional with Service Pack 2. I use a new image everytime that has never been touched. I've tried so many times to get this to work on VMware my head hurts. Everythings works just fine but it still asks for the key. I can manually enter it in and it works, but its not 100% unattended (and thus for loosers). I once attempted to use a fresh image, and only enter in the key (changing nothing else in nlite). It still didn't work. I'm out of ideas. If anybody has any to share i'd appreciate it!
