Hi,
First and foremost I hope to god you changed the local and domain admin passwords in the file before you posted this question, if not then change them NOW... : )

Secondly, a couple of points. First the obvious - are you sure the produst ID is correct? next you can try enclosing the product ID in quotes and lastly, I notice in your post that you are using the underscore '_' in the product ID, it should be the minus sign '-' (I'm assuming that was just in the post, if you've got that in the unnattend file then that will stop the build)

Hope this helps....
