Did this a while back. This is what I ended up with, using the FPP PID.INF: Code: File: en_win_srv_2003_r2_enterprise_with_sp2_cd1_X13-_OEM_.iso CRC-32: ffffffff SIZE: 595 MB (624,517,120 bytes) MD4: 4cd285501c7d838aa66457e28d71703c MD5: 7e5efef6079e600bc5db89276f5a7621 SHA-1: 0e8953d1fd86e191d4813b74c38cddc2cfc52255
@Oz, got the same here when also using the FPP PID.INF... Yesterday I tried to look trough the files from SP2 and found PID.INF files but none of them had the "StagingKey" filled in... So i suppose the place to look for this key is just the real media or at least a copy of that...
Didn't actually install it as it was, changed it to a Dell version and used it in VPC. Don't have my hard drive with all the ISO stuff hooked up right now, but those keys on MS site, they are not the StagingKeys right? Just vanilla OEM.
OEM:SLP, so with right oembios set & SLP string it preactivates automaticly With FPP PID.INF you can not skip COA Dialog, setup won't continue (the retail key isn't accepted as we altered SETUPP.INI, it expects a OEM key)
Yeah, didn't have that problem, since I tossed in a WINNT.SIF with a Dell SLP key EDIT Yep, getting same sums:
Freestyler, You have a HP Windows Server 2003 Standard R2 SP2 installation disc? I am looking for it... Have a Compaq Proliant ML350 G5 (with OEM COA) that I need to reinstall, but can not find any installation disc in my archives. I checked this forum to create one myself, but in fact I can not follow how to do it. Can you help me?
