Hi, I need to reinstall XP Home SP3 on a PC, but sadly I only found Retail ISO's out there, so I would like to know if it was possible to convert it to OEM. I don't wanna make an OEM SLP ISO with bios files and everything, just a normal OEM ISO. So if it's possible what file do I have to change? Thanks.
You just need to edit 1 file for that: i386\SETUPP.INI Open it, and you'll see something like this: Code: [Pid] ExtraData=786F687170637175716954806365EF Pid=76477000 Edit the Pid data, so that the last 3 digits read "OEM". Like this: Code: [Pid] ExtraData=786F687170637175716954806365EF Pid=76477OEM This example is from XP Home English, which has a Product Code of 76477. If your XP CD is in another language, then you'll have a different Product Code (don't worry, that's perfectly normal ). If you want, you can also change the volume label to reflect the fact that the CD is now OEM. For example: GRTMHFPP_EN would become GRTMHOEM_EN. Of course, this is entirely optional.
