Hi
I have an OEM version of WinXP. I ran SysPrep with sysprep.ini answer file. Everything works except "Autoactivate=Yes". The end user enters the computer name and the OEM license key from the side of the PC. All great until they sign in. They get the request to activate, but cannot with Power User permissions on the local PC
I need to figure out if there is a way to set the computer to do a RunOnce in the registry, and have the PC activate itself (sysprep has an option, but I do not know the command that may work, run as an admin.)
Or if I have to rebuild the image from scratch using volume license media (we do have Volume license agreements, But purchase OEM licenses on the PCs. I would like to avoid this)
Lastly - I did see articles about running a Script, but it referenced having a list of license keys - which I would not have..
Any Ideas?
