I have a number of HP ProDesk 600 G1. I use Windows Deployment Server (WDS) to deploy a custom image to these machines (effectively removing HP bloatware) and I'm trying to find the OEM-SLP key.
I have the HP supplied Windows 7 Pro recovery DVD and managed to find the HP Cert file at DVD:\sources\$OEM$\$$\system32\OEM\oem-cert.xrm-ms.xml
.
I've installed the certificate using slmgr.vbs /ilc oem-cert.xrm-ms
which worked fine, however Windows still requires a product key to fully activate.
I was hoping that somebody here could tell me where I could retrieve the OEM-SLP key from the HP Windows 7 Recovery DVD please? I'm not even sure where to look..
Thanks
EDIT: I have already mounted sources\boot.wim
& sources\install.wim
to a local directory in hopes that the key may be stored in these.
C:\SYSTEM.SAV\Tweaks\Start_MLGM_2PP.cmd
and inC:\SYSTEM.SAV\Tweaks\UpdateBaseImage2.cmd
on an untouched HP OEM machine. I found these files using a Linux live USB as allowing the system to perform it's normal sysprep Generalize/Specialize phases deletes most of the content inC:\SWSETUP
andC:\SYSTEM.SAV
. I'd still like to know where I can find these SWSETUP/SYSTEM.SAV files on the recovery DVD.
