Hi, my friend wants to upgrade from Windows ME, to Windows XP.

I downloaded the Windows XP Unattended setup files,

I know, you need to change the Winnt.sif file, adding product key, and first 
and last name.

once this is done, do I just copy text to clipboard, and copy to a floppy? I 
would appreciate the proper steps, so, I don't mess up. if I change the 
Winnt.sif file, and ctrl S to save, and then alt key to save as, and type 
in, Winnt.sif, do I reopen file, copy to clipboard, and then copy to Floppy? 
thanks for the help, in advance.
