What did you use to slipstream SP3 and under what operating system did you slipstream it? Are you using a retail, OEM, or VLK copy of XP?

[srichakram]

i had used dell company`s oem cd not vlk

and slipstreamed with nlite

srichakram, please attach (not paste) your Last Session.ini file and please make sure to always start with a fresh copy of your CD files/folders, to do all of your work in one nLite session (using the latest version), and to integrate only one service pack.

srichakram, I know very little about MCE, but I have read that only certain version of it can accept SP3 and if you slip SP3 into one that does not, bad things happen. Please make sure your version of MCE accepts SP3. Enjoy, John.

gamehead200, great inculcation in your last post! Enjoy, John.

I figured I'd state it before you did this time.

Also, others having problems slipstreaming SP3 into MCE 2005 with a nice tutorial on how to get it working: http://www.pronetworks.org/forums/slipstre...05-t102317.html

download the latest version of nlite and slipstream with your original copy. the key should work.

You do realize I suggested that in my post above, right? In addition, SP3 won't properly integrate into MCE2005 as mentioned in the link I posted above - there is a workaround that must be done.

Yup slipstreaming SP3 into MCE makes it XP Pro.

Thats why no keys work. Plus you were most likely trying blacklisted serials from the net...
