I have a brand new Dell Optiplex GX520 (SATA Drives, if that matters) this
is the first time I'm running sysprep with SP2. Everytime I run it I just
"unable to update registry when the machine comes back up.
I have tried Sysprep 1.0 with my standard answer file, and sysprep 2.0 ...

Hi, Currently I am running XP MCE2005 sp2. on
3.0 ghz Socket 775
(2) gig ddr2 ram
Gigabyte MB

... And then fails due to an error that reads something like "Cannot read
license information." Then it locks up solid. It started doing this more than
two weeks after the RAM on this system was upgraded from 2 GB to 4 GB -
without issue at the time.

Is it possible to dual boot two Windows XP pro installations instead of NT4
and Win XP?
exemple: partition C with "WINXP1"
             partition D with "WINXP2"

I recently upgraded a user computer (dell dimension 2400) from 2000 to xp
prof and can no longer access the internet.  I downloaded nic drivers (all of
them!) from the resource disk (didn't work), re-installed windows xp, looked
on the internet for other drivers and loaded them ...

I should've known this wouldn't be straight-forward. <g> I had to buy a new
PC because the old one's MoBo fried. It was due for replacement anyway.
The new PC came with WinXP/Home. I purchased the XP/Pro upgrade retail, but
it won't install.

I've finally got everything working perfectly for sysprep.  We are using the
mini-setup wizard because we roll out new pcs every month.  The only problem
I'm having is that the administrator password doesn't change even though
we're prompted and then make a change.  It always ...

Because of GPO's, we need to have a script were users homefolders are created.
There are about 26 users on 5 workstations in an AD enviroment.
We need some automatic script were 26 UserID's are automaticly logged in and
logged out again..

yeah, i know, it's weird one. i have this one pc (dell optiplex 150) at
work. i formatted the drive with my wxp sp2 cd, the one i use on all my
systems. xp installs and loads just fine. then, when i take out the install
cd, i get a bios error (f1 to retry boot). but, if i boot ...

I have installed a set of SATA disks in my computer, and want to install
windows on these disks instead of on my current IDE drive. Atm I have windows
up and running, and no problem in using the disks BUT..... My computer have
no disk-drive, and I don't know how to install ...

Situation:
I have an old W2K Pro workstation that requires replacement.  It is a
kiosk-like computer, accessed by 24-30 people that we have tailored user
profile settings for each user over the years.

I stupidly cancelled while running "Add/Remove windows components".
Now when I try to run "Add/Remove windows components" I get the message
"File copy operations were canceled. Setup cannot continue." with only an "OK"
button.

My computer froze up last night during some video editing and I think the
hard disc has died, probably due to overheating.  It is either that or a  
BIOS problem that
won't detect the drive so the machine can't boot. The PC is in the repair  

I have partitioned my disk to install LINUX but now i wish to uninstall LINUX

completely remove LINUX from the system.
