Hello all,

I'm working with some Dell optiplex gx520 and gx280 and a RIS server (win 2003), i've made some Riprep image and i'm having some troubles when i try to use them.
The installation goes without problem but in the end the installation process asks me to activate my copy of windows Xp.

I tried to add the ProductKey=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx line in my riprep.sif, but that would just skip the prompt for entering it, the activation problems remain. I even added the "Autoactivate=yes" in the riprep.sif file along with the productkey field and still no automatic activation.

And since i have about 350-400 computers (and about 100-150 without an internet access)

So in the end, how can i use my RIS and my Riprep image with the DELL preactivation? (perhaps there is something in the dell utility partition?)
The perfect thing would be that i don't have to Manually activate XP once the RIS installation is complete. Is there some kind of setting I am missing or file? I have legit copies of XP all with Product keys but I just need to automate the activation process...

thanks for your answers
