Unattended install of Slipstreamed WinXP SP1

Recommended Posts

I have a corp version of WinXP with legit key of course. I was able to create winnt.sif file to do unattended install of my computer. Since SP1 build 1006 came out, I was successfully slipstreamed it and made it bootable as the original. Unfortunately, it won't allow me to do unattended install despite I have a legit corp key. Any insite? Thanks

BTW, I was able to upgrade to SP1 by running SP1 upgrade to my current WinXP system without any problem.

I am specifically curious how to do the unattended portion. I think I can do the SP1 Slipstreamed part just fine because I did it with the Non SP1 version. I would like to find out if and how you can give XP all the information without user intervention.

You have to put winnt.sif in the i386 folder on the cd or you have to put it in the root of a floppy and insert it when the text setup of windows XP loads.

A how to for unattended installations you can find on the Windows XP CD. Extract the file X:\SUPPORT\TOOLS\DEPLOY.CAB and open ref.chm.
