xp cd with menu options

[keithc]

Hi All,

just wondering has anyone made an xp with boot up options, for example. I want to be able to whack in an xp cd then boot the machine when it boots the user will have a variety of options that will install a base version of XP with a different application pack depending on the selection thats made.

eg: Option 1: XP installed with office

Option 2: XP installed with office & winzip

Option 3: XP installed with NO office & winzip

basically i have a variety of different batch files, batch1, batch2, and i just want to make the installer load a different batch file without the need to have multiple copies of the same files.

This is possible sure, but I would recommend you to check out WPI (windows post installation wizard) wpiw.net

I have my DVD setup as follows:

XP Pro Standard

XP Pro Unattended

but XP Pro Unattended & Office wouldnt be hard to setup, just create an additional bootfolder and edit winnt.sif.
