Alrighty.. I am trying to make the unattended setup. I have tried it 3 times now starting over from scratch everytime. The file runs okay as an iso but it refuses to do the unattended install. I already have a disk with the SP2 into it so i needed not do that part. So im onto step 4 and i have the 2 files.. the setup manager and the ref file.. i did notice that my ref file is only 908 kb while the one in the tutorial is 973?? Does this make the difference??? but continuing.. i go thru the setup manager as follows and does everything exactly as it says? Any ideas on what i coud possibly eb doing wrong?
