Hi. I have the original xp sp2c pro cd but someting buggy will not work 100% fine with hfslip integrating sp3 and ie7.

I have a MSDN XP Pro VL SP3 ISO image, and I'd like to ask you if it's possibile to convert that VL in a OEM working with my legal serial. ( I'd like too to install from an original SP3 sources, not SP2 to 3 patched )

I tried to hack the setupp.ini as described here http://www.thetechguide.com/howto/setuppini.html but it will not accept my OEM key.

Can you help me ?

Thanks

I don't know will this help, but you may try to copy you PIDGEN.DLL from XP Sp2 you own, to MSDN XP Sp3.

Cheers

beside copying the pidgen.dll .. try also replacing the following files:

DPCDLL.DL_
OEMBIOS.BI_
OEMBIOS.CA_
OEMBIOS.DA_
OEMBIOS.SI_
PIDGEN.DLL
SETUPP.INI
SETUPREG.HIV

good look and please post your feedback

and Eula.txt too!

Yes please post a reply as I've had the same sort of problem slipstreaming SP3 (IE7 was not the problem, post installing SP3 wasn't either) but I was also using different language versions (I posted this yesterday in the nLite section). I hope I'm not aggressively hijacking the thread .

I recommend you to use Retail version to convert that in a OEM! You can't use VOL or VLK to do that!
This is ogirinal CD Windows XP Pro Sp2 Retail from MSDN, you can use it:

Please be careful what you asking/writing. No more warnings.

Thank you
