[Release] OEMScan Addons v1.4.1

cmdow is only listed in the batch file for those that use cmdow. It shouldn't cause a problem for installing the oembios files. It just will not hide the batch window. I don't use cmdow myself either.

OK, this is weird, I edited the oemscan.bat file to remove the cmdow line and the notebook activated properly. However...
Here's the oemscan.log

Code: Select all: OEMBIOS Scanner v1.4.1 by Jeremy (xehqter) Reading BIOS Memory Matched: Gateway Checking Authenticity of OEMBIOS files Validating: D:\OEM\Emachines\OEMBIOS.BIN : PASSED Validating: D:\OEM\Emachines\OEMBIOS.SIG : PASSED Validating: D:\OEM\Emachines\OEMBIOS.DAT : PASSED OEMBIOS files pass Validation Importing D:\OEM\Emachines\OEMBIOS.CAT : Successful Copying D:\OEM\Emachines\OEMBIOS.DAT : Successful Copying C:\WINDOWS\system32\DllCache\OEMBIOS.DAT : Failed Copying D:\OEM\Emachines\OEMBIOS.SIG : Successful Copying C:\WINDOWS\system32\DllCache\OEMBIOS.SIG : Failed Copying D:\OEM\Emachines\OEMBIOS.BIN : Successful Copying C:\WINDOWS\system32\DllCache\OEMBIOS.BIN : Failed Running: D:\OEM\Cscript ChangeKey.vbs .\Emachines\OEMBIOS.txt : Failed

file copy failed???
Can this be ignored?

Thanks Siginet & xehqter, this pack is a godsend.
Now I need to figure out what to do with all these unneeded OEM hologram CDs.

The only reason I bought them was because I couldn't figure out how to modify the restore disks.

Legally I can not give you the slp keys. But you can use your dell slp key and it will work fine. Just look on your Dell OEM disk for winnt.sif. In it you will find the key. Place that key into your own winnt.sif file in i386. Use the RVM Integrator to integrate the Toshiba OEMScan Addon and that is all.

The slp key you are using must not be an slp key then. Or your toshiba is very old and does not use pre-activation. Or the motherboard has been replaced.

I've had my first problem with OEMSCAN...

I've been using the DELL slp key to do all of my installs (mainly xp home, so afiak i can't use an official ms key) and it works fine. Probably not the best idea, but it works. I've just installed on a PowerSpec (Microcenter brand) PC - which i did not have the oembios.* files for.

I realized that for each computer make that i don't have the oembios files for, i'm stuck with a dell product key that's not activated.

This shouldn't be a big deal, as i should just be able to change the key to the one on the sticker, but that fails every time.

Any idea why changing the key to the sticker would fail? If it's going to continue to fail, i won't be able to use my cd unless i have the oembios fileset for them.

btw, the pid in my setupp.ini is Pid=55277OEM

Thanks
TheUni

any ideas?

Well, nevermind that last post.

Seems as though it's a bad key. No idea how.. it's a genuine sticker, but every disk i've thrown at it won't install. Xp home oem, retail, etc.

is it possible that some REALLY old keys only work w/ sp0 or sp1 ?
