Hi everyone,

It's been a while that I'm fighting with this issue. I have two FAT32 Partitions on one single drive. My Second partition D drive has a full dump of my Windows XP Pro with SP2 CD (I got it from Microsoft with SP2 already integrated).

Now I'm using Winnt.exe to start my unattended installation from drive D using

%cdrom%\i386\winnt.exe /s:%cdrom%\i386 /u:%cdrom%\i386\unattend.txt my %cdrom% variable is now set as drive D. (My local partition).

Everything is working during the unattended installation at the end when Windows login the first time I get the following message:

a problem prevents windows from checking the license for this computer Error code: 0x80070002

I've found a solution manually but I want a solution integrated in the unattended.

I've searched the Microsoft knowledge base I've found a solution that works with safe mode and delete two keys (See solution 1 below). But I'm doing a full clean installation. That machine I'm working on has access to the internet I've tried static IP and DHCP to get the license verified during startup. (License I'm using is a volume license of windows XP pro.) I know that it's working because I've installed more than 300 machines.

PS: with manual installation works great.

I've tried to push these key to be deleted during the installation it didn't work I still get the license error.

I appreciate if someone can help me with this issue.

Solution 1 found on microsoft website.
