Have you ever wanted a Windows XP CD that would install Windows XP by automatically putting in your name, product key, timezone and regional settings? Followed by silently installing all your favourite applications along with DirectX 9, .Net Framework and then all the Pre-SP2 hotfixes, updated drivers, registry tweaks, and a readily patched UXTheme.dll without any user interaction whatsoever? Then this guide will show you how you can do just that!

That would be very useful here at work.

It's awesome bar the inability to add third party SCSI/SATA/RAID drivers :(

.. and the old floppy method is made redundant as you have to enable the "OEM Preinstall" switch.. which disables the floppy method.

For those who dont use drivers such as above.. it's a godsend!

When adding the extra extra stuff like tweaks, batch files and programs, if you don't know dos, it's a b!tch. I tried hrs and couldn't get it working. I think I found out what it was but I just said "screw it!".

Incase anyone wants to try it, I suggest you use Win/Magic/Ultra ISO and VMWare so you don't have to be wasting cd's. Create the file structure and stuff with all the files, open the ISO file that's attached, injectt the files, save it and use the ISO with VMWare.
