UA Vista Setup stops at Windows Activation


Recommended Posts

For some strange reason I cannot get my unattended setup to run unattended.

Everything is working like a charm, but it always stops in Windows Welcome asking me to fill in a product key to activate my Vista. I have set SkipAutoActivation to "true" though.

I think I tried every possible combination, but it just won't work.

Here are the configurations I tried so far:

a ) "specialize -> Windows Shell Setup -> ProductKey" being the same key as in "windowsPE -> Windows Setup -> UserData -> Product Key"

b ) "specialize -> Windows Shell Setup -> ProductKey" being a different key as in "windowsPE -> Windows Setup -> UserData -> Product Key"

c ) not using "specialize -> Windows Shell Setup -> ProductKey" at all

"specialize -> Windows-Security-Licensing-SLC-UX -> SkipAutoActivation" was always set to true.

The strange thing is that, according to google, I seem to be the only one with this problem :P

I followed every single tutorial I found on the net explaining how to set up a fully unattended xml file with WAIK, but every time I run into the same problem.

Any hints are highly appreciated.

Below is the unattended file I am using.
