    These options are used with the Windows XP setup WINNT32.EXE program and change the way Windows can be installed.

    /checkupgradeonly Check the existing OS for compatibility with XP (but does not install)
    /cmd:command_line Executes command after GUI mode of setup completes, but before the reboot.
    /cmdcons Show the Recovery Console option to repair a failed installation.
    /copydir:folder Creates a subdirectory named "folder" below the XP directory
    /copysource:folder Copies source files to local directory "folder"
    /debug[level][:filename] Write a debug log to filename for warning levels. Level 0=severe errors, 1=errors, 2=warnings, 3=information, 4=detailed info for debugging. Default level is 2, and default filename is winnt32.log in the default Windows directory.
    /dudisable Disable dynamic update, so only the original setup files are used.
    /makelocalsource Copy all setup and installation files to the hard disk to run the installation from the hard disk rather than the CD (if CD is having problems during install).
    /noreboot Do not automatically reboot after installation completes copying the files.
    /sStick out tongueath Specify the location of the Windows XP source files, such as a network path
    /syspart :drive_letter Copies temporary files to specified drive, make the drive active, and run from that drive.
    /tempdrive :drive_letter Drive location of temporary files


    /udf:ID[,UDF_file] Specify the settings file (uniqueness database) for use during an unattended installation
    /unattend Unattended installation. The /s option to specify the location of the source files must be used

    You can start WINNT32.EXE program from the command line. The WINNT32.EXE has the following syntax..

    winnt32 [/checkupgradeonly] [/cmd:command_line] [/cmdcons] [/copydir:{i386|ia64}\folder_name] [/copysource:folder_name] [/debug[level]:[filename]] [/dudisable] [/duprepare:pathname] [/dushare:pathname] [/emsport:{com1|com2|usebiossettings|off}] [/emsbaudrate:baudrate] [/m:folder_name] [/makelocalsource] [/noreboot] [/s:sourcepath] [/syspart:drive_letter:] [/tempdrive:drive_letter:] [/udf:id [,UDB_file]] [/unattend[num]:[answer_file]]
    You can use this program for an upgrade of supported version of Windows.......
