Dear Customer,
Thanks for posting here.
After viewing this issue, I suspect the other configurations you defined in
unattended file have been successfully applied except product ID entry. If
my understanding is not correct, please advise me.
If in this case, we can remove some factors that may cause this issue, such
as the location of sysprep.inf, the name of unattended file etc.
Accordingly, let's focus on the license related issue. I did some research
and obtained the following KB. I list below for your reference.
You are prompted for the product key while the Windows XP Setup program is
running, although you use an answer file that contains a product key
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/837494/en-us
I hope this helps. After trying the steps listing on this KB, if this issue
still persists, please feel free to let me know.
Have a good day!
Sincerely
Morgan Che

--->Greetings,
--->I installed XP from a volume license CD; added desired software, and
ran
--->sysprep, including the product key in the [UserData] section of
sysprep.inf.
---> When I ran Sysprep, I did not check the box that says "Do not
regenerate
--->SID". After running sysprep, I made an image of the disk, and then
installed
--->the image on a PC. At bootup, I am required to enter the Product key
again,
--->even though it is already in the [UserData} section. What to I need to
do to
--->create an image that will not require you to re-enter the produce ID
every
--->time you install it on a new PC?
