Hi,

I'm just stating up a business building PC's for business. The first few
orders are for 5-10 machines, not that much but even now it's a hassle
installing a fresh copy of windows XP on each machine. Is there any way to
create a standard windows XP disk image, install it on a hard driver then
later enter the serial number, configure it for specific hardware and
activate it? Perhaps by buying a volume license?

I'm new to all this so thanks in advance for any help offered,

Julian Hirst
