RE: Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 Custom Install

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hello Henry,
Not sure what you are attempting with the new install. Are you installing
to the same folder, a different drive, a different volume?
You can choose the install folder with an unattended file.
Or
If a Windows folder already exists on the drive, setup will stop and warn
you, there will be an option to change the folder name at that time.
Thanks,
Darrell Gorter[MSFT]
