    You need to boot to the floppy with CDROM access and give the unattend.txt as a parameter to the setup (winnt.exe) file. I can't remember the exact commands at the moment, but if no-one else has answered by tomorrow morning I will get them for you (have them in work).

    If you used sysprep I think it should have created a batch (.bat) file with the correct commands in it, though?
    Another option is to use the unattend options in the winnt.sif file.

    Check out nLite and/or http://unattended.msfn.org for much more info.

    Thanks Wiz, Ive often created the .sif file and made a cd fully unsattened but I need to modify the answers depending on where im installing the OS
