Changing Files On Windows Xp Cd

jbosko · Aug 29, 2005

Hello,

I have XP SP2 OEM Installation CD (from dell) and i wonder is it posible to do next:

to change files directly on CD so it won't ask for Windows activation, not to crack it after install, i want it to ask for no activation after install, next, how do i make some programs installed with windows automatically e.g. nero, msn messenger, updated drivers and how to strip it from themes (luna) so it won't be installed.

I resolved few problems in my mind but im not sure about everything, hope that you can help me.

Thank you.

You cannot change files on a cd-rom (read only).. but you can copy them and create a unattended install.... look

Theres a file called wpa.dbl in your Windows\system32 folder, but for some reason I am guessing you never heard of making a partition image, because this is how you would get your Windows customized, then save it. I install everything, get it how I want, then make a drive image. Right now I simply use Nero and backup to a DVD. You could also try another tool and\or back it up to another hard drive like Acronis True Image or Nortons Ghost, for example.
