    What about XP prof. VLK (corp edition 32 bit)?

    Do you have to replace PIDGEN.DLL, Setupreg.hiv and SETUPP.INI as well?

    Can somebody upload those three files from a xp professional (ASUS) OEM, please?


    Together with the four oem.bin /.dat /.cat/.sig this are seven corp-files!!

    Edit: If you want to cange VLK to OEM you have to edit / replace SETUPP.INI. VLK ends with PID 270, OEM with OEM and retail with 335!!
    I don't know if you have to replace PIDGEN.DLL and setupreg.hiv

    Hi,
    thanks a lot for reply. It has to be possible to use VLK since you can make a VLK using a retail version. Therefore you have to copy the "corp.-files" into a retail version.

    Conclusion: You need the original retail files again to redo, which are:

    DPCDLL.DL_
    OEMBIOS.BI_
    OEMBIOS.CA_
    OEMBIOS.DA_
    OEMBIOS.SI_
    PIDGEN.DLL
    SETUPP.INI
    SETUPREG.HIV

    Please can someone upload them from a xp-SP2 pro retail or even a Asus oem. (Except the oembios files, which you may replace by yourself.)

    So you need additionally
    DPCDLL.DL_
    PIDGEN.DLL
    SETUPREG.HIV


    Thanks

    Yen

    Fixed :)

    Yen. I'll upload the files you want and post a link later. However I think your better off finding and retail XP Pro disk on the internet so you don't have to mess around with replacing files.

    Yes, you are right. Using a retail version is the better way. But it's just to figure it out if it will work using a VLK or not....

    Thanks

    The final steps to make a clean OEM_SLP1.0 installation (without any OEM spam **** or trial licenses junk) from a VOLUME LICENSE!


    There are a lot of rumors and false instructions.

    Create the SETUPP.INI as described.
    Create the WINNT.SIF for a unattended install as described. (If you want to use it)
    NO NEED OF OOBEINFO.INI leave it untouched.

    Get the
    OEMBIOS.BIN
    OEMBIOS.DAT
    OEMBIOS.SIG

    from your OEM installation and compress them as described, or use them right from your OEM_CD!

    LEAVE THE OEMBIOS.CA_ UNTOUCHED!! I have to thank xfilz for that info. :)

    Get the:
    DPCDLL.DL_
    PIDGEN.DLL

    from your OEM installation and replace all 5 of them.
    Replace the SETUPP.INI as well , add the WINNT.SIF if needed.

    Done!

    All other instructions are useless or too much!

    Use only valid licenses.

    Are the following two files available in SP2, or do I have to source a download link? If so, does anyone have these files available?

    DPCDLL.DL_
    PIDGEN.DLL

    ------------------------------

    Kind of answered my own question. You can find these files in SP2

    Rename IPSELPID.DLL to PIDGEN.DLL and IPSELDPC.DL_ to DPCDLL.DL_

    If you use MAKECAB in Vista, is it the same as using the command in XP?
