nuhi Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 maybe you entered the wrong key Joking aside open the Autounattend.xml file in the DVD root and check inside the productkey line and confirm that it is exactly your key.Btw attach your preset (the last session.ini and _u.ini from the dvd, BUT first edit the _u.ini and replace your key and other sensitive info with some random chars).

pallavsuri Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 (edited) beppe your key should be for the vista edition you want to install. otherwise this screen will pop upthere is drop down box to select your OS edition just below the place where u enter the product key in vlite, it is easy to miss. (and should not exist at all. listening nuhi? hehe)use that to MATCH your key version with Vista edition selected in vlite.for example, you cant use ultimate key in business edition. you must use an ultimate key in ultimate vlited. it will work. otherwise ure key is not right Edited May 6, 2007 by pallavsuri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beppe Posted May 7, 2007 Author Share Posted May 7, 2007 (edited) Last_Session_u.iniLast_Session.iniok this is the deal.. the first attempt i put my key yes! it was correct i always double check my keys. i also skipped EULA. and did skip user creation. now when i go to install. everything loads up i click install and it will ask me to enter a key! so i m like ok i let that go. then i proceed to install windows vista. then when it comes time to the end of the install it will still ask me for a user name! and stuff so i m like grrr.. so i decided to make a new vlite on the fresh install. now wut i do it dont even select a key i skip key also along with EULA and user creation. after makin my vlite cd of course i apply and then rebuild only the editon i want to install. ect ect pop the dvd in comes to the screen to enter a key!! even though i checked skip key blah blah. yes in my list i selected the right version of windows. sorry i dont have the last sessions b/c i got fustrated and threw the dvds away and never saved the last session ini's P.S.ok i guess i liedfound Edited May 7, 2007 by Beppe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
