Pre-Intall Windows XP Key,Date,Time....

Intalling Windows is a very boring task, as we have to sit and wait for about 30 minutes to enter WINDOWS Serail Key,set Date and Time,Regional Settings and other information.

So in this tutorial I am going to tell you how you can pre-install all the required information in your Windows CD.This not only makes your job of installing Windows easy but also saves your time.



Lets start :

>>Insert Windows XP CD into CD-ROM.
>>Auto Play menu will open ,click on close.
>>Open My Computer and right click on inserted Windows Xp CD and select Open.
>>After that open I386 folder.
>>After opening this folder search for file WINNT.SIF.
>>Open this file with NOTEPAD and add/change following information to it.
