Unattended Windows XP setup

Post by insane »

Hey guys

I've got XP on my PC, I've heard that a person can run an unattended windows xp installation/setup. Does anyone know how to do it?

You can do it but it's a long and complicated process to explain on this forum. You need to set up answer files, etc... If you can find and MCSE book for Win XP you'll find step by step guides to do it.

Hopefully this might help...or this

You could also make your own answer-file by looking for Unattend.txt in the i386 folder on the CD - use the file as a template.
Be polite, professional and have a plan to kill everyone you meet.
