is there a way to do some tweaks with windows 2003 installation cd so that they wont ask your for a cd key code in the begining of the installation progress but still require you to activate your windows later on?

i remember that there is a post of this somewhere but i cant find it right now

Was it this thread? http://www.MSFN.org/board/index.php?act=ST...=34&t=6140&st=0

In one of the pages in that thread, you can find out how to put in the serial key automatically (using winnt.sif)

what if i were to use a windows xp boot.bin to create a windows 2003 cd what would happe

(i use windows xp because i dont know how to get a windows 2003 boot.bin )<- Can anyone tell me how to extract the bootfile from the orginal cd?

it seems to work
