Or... does this means that unnatended values merged in the files cancel any possibility of upgrading/installing within Windows???I feel a little of FUD now... How to check if a Windows unattended installation went OK with no errors?? Edited April 4, 2007 by djzn 0 Share this post Link to post Share
