Hello Ty,
Sorry I misread the issue you were reporting initially, the article helped
to understand what the issue was.
So did you 1) create a slipstream install point with Windows XP and SP1 and
they do the installation of Windows XP.
or 2) did you do an install of Windows XP , then update it to SP1?
Scenario one is the required method to get this to work. Scenario two does
not resolve the issue.
Thanks,
Darrell Gorter[MSFT]

I realize the product key can be attained using different
methods, but those methods require some knowledge and
skill. This product id is simply given to them by
appearing on screen.
Here is the sysprep.inf I am using. Not much to it. Have
changed specific info for posting here. Your help is
appreciated.

Ty,
Could you post your sysprep.inf file here? That will
make diagnosing the
problem a lot easier.

Darrell......thanks for the quick reply. To answer your
questions:
This is the article I referenced:
Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 307316
Product key is entered in sysprep.inf
It is not encrypted.
Not being prompted to enter any information during
sysprep setup. ......(it is all automated). The
product
id is an enterprise volume license, it is entered
properly...the product id screen just shows for 5-10
seconds. Would like to setup without this key showing.
I don't have the sysprep folder available here
now.....can get it tomorrow if necessary.
Thanks for the help!

Hello Ty,
What article are you refering to?
Do you have the product key entered into you
sysprep.inf?
Are you encrypting the product key?
Can you post the sysprep.inf? IF so xxx out any
information like the
product key or passwords.
What are the first 8 digits under registered to on My
Computer Properties?
Usually if you are prompted for the product key either
the syntax is
incorrect in the inf, the product key used does not
match the media that
the image was installed with, or the product key was
not
entered properly
Thanks,
Darrell Gorter[MSFT]

Deploying XP machines using premade image distributed
using Ghost software. Using Sysprep for automated
setup
regarding: Volume product id, sid generation, admin
password, etc... I have set up Sysprep folder with
sysprep.inf configured inside at C:\ location. I run
the
mini setup, with Reseal.
Problem: When Sysprep sets up new machine, the
product
id
screen shows. I have studied the KB article on this
bug,
but the fix they offer does not exist. They also say
it
was first fixed with SP1, however, my image is up to
date
with all hotfixes, and still showing the screen.
Anyone help me stop the Product id screen from
showing?
Please?
Thank you
