Whats wrong with my UA?!
It didn't skip the Vista EULA, It didn't skip asking me for my setup regional options.
All I want to see is the partitioning screen, nothing else.

</unattend>

In addition to that, the answer file does not open in WAIK, instead I get this error...

I tried using waik but it won't open my install.wim file either.

NOTHING is working to fricken run WPI after setup, and no, the way they provide doesn't work for me either, and we've tried to fix it, they have no other ideas.

So whats wrong with the Auto Answer file? Can anyone see?
