Can you do an OEM install of windows 98?
One like HP and Dell do, So you can set it all up and then have the user type in their name and cdkey?

Thanks

I believe they have their own proprietary setup program for doing that. We have some HP Brios at work and they came with a recovery cd which basicaly copies over the disk image to the hard drive then runs some program the first time the computer is turned on.

that is known as the oem preinstall. any oem cd has the utility for creating the floppy discs to do it. on the win me cd it is located in the tools/admin folder. It is called mkcwrt. I think it needs to be run from dos. you will have to figure the rest out as I haven't ever done it myself. this was all i could weedle out of the guy at my local computershop. I take that dos thing back it doesn't run from dos. don't know how they make those preinstall floppies with it though
