Hey gang,
I've just created my first .iso image and added all the correct info on the options tabs of nLite....

However when i test the image using either a clean computer or vmware windows installation always requires me to enter a product key. For some reason my settings are not transfering over to the .iso image????? I'm very confused by this, can someone out there please give me some tips if i'm doing something wrong.

Thank you for the help....I'm hopeing that I did something stupid... unsure.gif

chocbrandy97,
You give so little information, I suspect it would be nearly impossible for anyone to conclude what might have gone wrong. Look around at other posts and see what type of information people are submitting for consideration.

I have made many ISOs using the Unattended section, including specifying the key, with no problems. I would suggest you check your key and make sure it is the correct one and input correctly. I've seen some discussions here about some retail computers having two keys (search these forums). Perhaps one on the disk and one on the computer. Look in your LAST SESSION_U.INI file and see if your key is there and correct(CDKey = "xxx..."). Please do not post this file or your key.

Please do some searching and good luck

John

ah ha! thanks for pointing me in the right direction. There is no product code on my last session.ini. I must have made a mistake somewhere along the lines....i'll play with it and keep you posted.

Funny thing is when i use last session I have a product code, but for some reason when I create the .iso something doesn't transfer to the last session.ini.

chocbrandy97, I am glad you are running. In your earlier post, you said:

I said to look in the LAST SESSION_U.INI...notice the _U.

Great!
