Sysprep using a VLM

**Th3_H0unD** · January 18, 2006

Does anyone know what settings i need when using a volume liscense with sysprep ?

I've already got my image made and it works 100% perfect. I just don't want to have

to click reseal and then type the key in.

Anyone ?

Thanks

The normal method is to put the product key in sysprep.inf if you don't want users to enter the key manually.

Exactly what i read in my MCSE book yesterday.

For more on sysprep.inf try here;

I have the key in the unattend.txt of my cfgset.... So you are saying to put it in sysprep.inf ?

I found some info on it. It is an answer file to the mini setup.

So as long as I have that in my sysprep folder and do a mini setup When i'm done doing everything else

then it will not prompt me for that given information. right ?

Thanks

You got the idea now but like everything you have to try it out yourself.

If you product key is "incorrect" then Mini-Setup will still ask you.
