RockOn Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 (edited) Well, this is like the second times i encountered this. The first one was on 1.4.5 when it was supported to be fixed. I was running windows vista premium sp1 x86 as a host customizing windows xp home SP2. That time it didn't bothered me much since I had windows xp running. Yesterday, I uninstalled nlite version 1.4.5 completely on my vista and installed the 1.4.7 version and it still rejected my keys. Yes, the cd i was windows xp home with SP2 already integrated. Another weird thing is that i didn't allow me to put my keys later either: when I click NO to have the key in later it doesn't go to the next screen but stay at the same one. Note: I did the same thing on XP when I still had it and it worked perfectly with my keys. Edited July 12, 2008 by RockOn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvereyes Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Ermmm...I think you are going to have to explain a little more clearly beforeany of us can help you.Where are you trying to input your XP product key? nLite Unattendedsettings dialog? XP install? Something weird and wonderful? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevk Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 (edited) I have the same problem. I installed nlite 1.4.7 and then I opened it and selected a directory with xp with sp2. I chose that I want to slipstream sp3 into it and that I want to make it unattended. It says it slipstreams sp3 successfully. Then I fill out the product key on the unattended page and a few other options. I apply the changes to the directory and then build the ISO. When I then use the ISO the installation stops and says "Invalid Product ID" and no matter what key I type in, it won't work. I know this problem was supposed to be fixed in this version but I think the bug might be lingering. Is there any debug info that anyone could suggest I post here to help get this resolved? Thanks!

kane3162 Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 (edited) im gonna bump this... my XP Pro key doesn't work anymore either... and when i click on the "no" option during setup to enter it later it doesn't go past that screen and stays their... (like others when i do a regular install of XP with NO nlite the key works and activates just fine...)thx Edited July 17, 2008 by kane3162 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deda Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 If you build a CD using two different systems (keys), i.e.: the installed system, where nlite's running, isn't the same of the source, different keys, that will be nlited, and you're integrating a service pack, the key will change, it will be the same of the installed system. Sorry, was the best way I'd explain it, English isn't my native idiom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kane3162 Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 (edited) lol... no i used my laptop that im working on and a VM to test this... when i make an nlited CD... the cdkey is invalid... additionally i cannot skip past this to enter the key later... as for the source... it installs fine with the cdkey... the un-nlited disk is the source that was used for the nlite'ed disk... so thats not a factor here...

Phoneywar Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 (edited) I've encountered this problem as well but assumed it was something I had done wrong as I built the XP Pro install disc on a W2k system. I haven't had the time to explore the issue any further but I shall try to get to it this weekend and let you know what I find.EDIT: I've just found the following post which may or may not be the same issue - http://www.msfn.org/board/Basic-unattended...ue-t120684.html Edited July 17, 2008 by Phoneywar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
