ok man this disc is werid it seem its just the product key not going thorugh, can someone have a look at my winnt.sif and tell me why it wont put it in

[eirogge]

there are some important switches missing, for instance "UnattendMode".

do the disc yourself using the msfn guide and dont rely too much on tools.

... and update your nLite... Currently we're at 0.99.7, you're using 0.99.5

i dont know how but i just did a couple of restarts and it worked :S

I have found that this product key requires quotes around it.

If the product key seems to mysteriously start to work chances are it has been manually entered and next time everything is started extremely clean it won't work.

ProductKey="XxXxX-XxXxX-XxXxX-XxXxX-XxXxX"
