MagicAndre1981 Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 you must delete the autounattended.xml on the DVD. Place the xml on a usb stick or floppy disk and plug them on your PC when you install Vista. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sorry if I missed it. please point me to the link if it has already been answered.ThanksSorry if I dont understand your reasons... But if you want to run a repair, why not just run the original Vista disc(or a copy)? If you can make an unattended dvd you obviously have access to one. Unattended dvds are for installing Vista without having to babysit it. It's not that easy to "repair" vista unattended because repair options are limited and require user decisions that computers are incapable of making.

And I don't mind that.Now, if I want to take my DVD with me to some where, I have to take the original DVD also in case a repair may be required. That is not the end of the world. But, it would be nice if the VLited DVD itself contained the repair option as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
