Greetings, I was curious as to any imput on slipstreaming (my cd key) into the os files, then to burn onto cd. I attempted this a while back to no avail. As I recall, I modified somehow the "unattend" file, renamed it something else, yet continued to fail to automate the os cd process{with the cd key automatically popping up as desired}. Maybe I had bad instructions from another site, or I failed otherwise. Any Ideas, suggestions..Thanks -EZ

When you slipstream a Windows XP CD the CD key doesn't pop-up as it does with Windows 98. Totally different installation process. If the slipstreamed disk installs then you can be sure the CD Key has been entered correctly.
