Automate your Vista DVD Deployments

  • Artículo

This is a sample script you can use to automate the installation of Vista.  Copy & paste the following text to notepad, replace the product key with your product key, and save the file with the name autounattend.xml.  To use this, copy the autounattend.xml to a USB key.  On a computer you wish to install vista, turn on the computer, insert the Vista DVD in the DVD-ROM, and plug in the USB key.  Make the DVD-ROM the bootable device.  Vista will fully install automatically.

Warning! Do not do this on a computer that contains data you do not wish to lose. This answer file will wipe out any existing partitions without prompting conformation.
