HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoft
WindowsCurrentVersionSetup

In the right hand pane, double click the “SourcePath” key. It will be most probably currently showing the path to your CD-ROM. Mine is G:. Change it to wherever you put your i386 folder i.e., D:i386. Now Windows will automatically copy the required files from the i386 folder. You will not be prompted for inserting a Windows CD-ROM.
