I was wondering if anyone knows that needs to be in the winnt.sif file so the whole installation process of windows XP will be unattended.

Thanks that link helped. I am still stuck though, I might just be an id*** but I can’t get the install to get past the partition selection screen without needing user input.

Without being clear of what exactly you want?

[Unattended]
UnattendMode = FullUnattended

This enables a full unattended setup of windows. So long as all required answers have been filled in by Setup Manager.

Setting up partitions is normal. When the prompt come up, I click Setup XP on this partition and walk away.

Look at repartition, if you want to boot, format the first drive and setup xp with no prompts at all.
