ok i've tried it's simply just use the batch file to get the five files from ur windows... u dun even have to run the vbscript u move all the 5 files u get fom the .bat file. then u copy all of them into the xphome cd that u are going to use to format ur comp... then ur windows shud come preactivated... as simple as that.. i've even used nlite to integrate drivers inside.. conclusion... it works! thanks bezalel
