I used setupmgr.exe to create the file if this helps.

Thanks in advance.

1) Remove your key from your post.
2) Make sure your file isn't called winnt.sif.txt.

Nope it is called winnt.sif for sure, i was certain but i have just checked to make doulbly sure.

you are looking at it with File Extensions on right? setupmgr creates an unattend.txt file. So you'll have to manually change the extension.

Try CAPITALIZING the name as well. SOmetiems that works.
