unattended xp doesn't work

[roel]

Hello,

I've been spending a long time making an unattended xpcd. And because i don't have a dvd writer and my xpcd is too big to burn on regular cd's, i've tried installing xp from my hard drive. It installs normally, but not unattended. Is this because i installed it from a hard drive or a problem with my winnt.sif??

I hope someone can help/advice me.

this is my winnt.sif

that is the problem your installing from your hard drive.

it needs to be installed via cdrom or dvd on the bootup
