nokia999i Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Well I'd say it's not recommended as there are many things that will not work like the Input Product Key Dialog ... I recommend doing like I did, I installed My MSDN SP3 version "Untouched" on VMWare, set it up as my XP workstation, created an nLite XP on it LoL !!! Clever no ? Instead of having to install XP on another partition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of having to install XP on another partition I'm on Vista 32 bit and today I created 4 isos of xp sp3 and they're all working very well so I think I can say there's no problem in creating an iso of XP under Vista.But could you be more precise about this part : "there are many things that will not work like the Input Product Key Dialog ...

Instead of having to install XP on another partition Thats what i do as well If you are using vista, and you intergrate sp3 into the cd, it will not work when you get to the licence key request!Ie it will not accept most keys such as vlk! i have no idad why but i guess it is to do with how nlite or the way it intergrates on a vista system which is causing the errors.

" Well, I was wrong! I have a problem with the isos. The VLK is not working and it's because of Vista. I run nLite on XP SP2 and my VLK was recognized so I'll let you conclude what's needs to be done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
