Ok, so here's the issue. At my work, all of our new machines that came
in from Dell were re-imaged with XP using Ghost. A Volume License Key
purchased by our company was used within Sysprep mini-setup. Problem
being, evidently, we are no longer compliant. IWe've tried using the
Microsoft scripts to change the XP Volume License Key over to the OEM
key provided on the sticker located on each machine to cover our
licensing accordingly. However, since the install was done with VLK
media, evidently it will not accept the OEM key.
I've read on other groups that the only way to fix this is to do a
repair install with the OEM cd, then enter the OEM product key.
Unfortunately, we've got over 200 machines to do this to. Is there an
easier way to convert the VLK installation over to change the keys to
OEM as they are supposed to be?
