? regarding unattended install of XP Pro.

[PeteyG]

My questions
1.Will the unattended install change my HDD partition information?
2.Will it format C:\ drive?
3. Lastly is it possible to auto install my raid drivers from the floppy Disk?


I am asking because I ordered Win XP pro and will be reformating and reinstalling everything, hopefully with SP1 already slipstreamed into the install.


Thanks


Pete

Sounds a bit dodgey to me. SP1 has not been officially released yet. Better make sure you are getting the real thing.

Well since SP1 will be available Aug 28 supposedly, And with microsoft not delivering my copy of Win xp Pro till next week at the earliest it is fine. Downloading it will not be problem, on cable modem at Home

See http://www.xp-erience.org/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=18095 for info on win xp fo 39.99 they said 4-6 weeks fo delivery.

But if any one can answer my other questions I would appreciate it.

And I thought of an unrelated question in regards to the student/teacher edition of office XP.

Does any one know what is required for verifcation of eligibility?
