Activation

[Dave Lykens]

I purchased ten Dell 5100laptops with WinXP pre-installed
(not a volume license). I ghost these machines and the
product activation keeps popping up even though I
activated Windows XP before taking an image of one of the
machines. I am using the newest sysprep version
(5.1.2600.1106) and it does not give you the "pre-
activated" check box in the sysprep window before clicking
on reseal. What should I do? There is no info on what you
are supposed to do if you run out of your activation
period. How do I configure sysprep for this ailment?
