Skyfrog Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 You can use the same winnt.sif file but you cannot use the same uxtheme.dll.You can download the patched uxtheme.dll file for Server 2003 here:http://www.msfn.org/win2k3/uxtheme.htmHere is a guide for the winnt.sif file:http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/reference.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strekship Posted March 23, 2004 Author Share Posted March 23, 2004 Thanks. i am planning on switching my unattained project from XP home to 2k3. Just wanted to know. All i need to do is put my $OEM$ folder in my 2k3 folder and put my winnt.sif in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyfrog Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 Be sure you change the product key to the correct one, and check to see if the drivers and any other software in your $OEM$ folder is compatible with Server 2003. Personally I prefer to run my winnt.sif file from a floppy rather than burning it to the CD. That way I can make changes to it later if I need to. Windows will search the floppy disk for this file when setup begins and use it if found.If you are planning to run 2k3 as a workstation you'll probably want to read through the entire guide on this site. There are quite a few things that need to be done to make it work properly. If you have an ATi Radeon series card be sure to switch your memory usage from system cache to programs, otherwise disk corruption may occur (ATi may have fixed this by now but you should change this setting anyway).Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
