SIlent Installation of Vista using VMware Studio

[pslag24]

I am trying to install Vista from a DVD which has been converted to an ISO. The installation goes great expect, I have to click OK on two questions. The first screen that requires me to click OK ask which version of Vista I want to install. This screen only shows only one version. The second screen deals with selecting a drive. Again only one selection as the VM only has the virtual disk.

How do I script answers to these question so that OK will automatically be pressed?

Vmware Studio is a tool to deploy VM's automatically to an ESXi server. I have already used it to deploy Windows Server 2008 R2. Need Help with Vista.

I'd suggest looking for Unattended installation instructions in the Windows SDK (available for free from Microsoft)

unattended vista installation - Google Search

I have tried that and no luck. Not very many people deploying vista unatttended. And not many using VMware Studio.

I got it worked out.
