Does anyone know where the screen resolution lives in the registry? I'd like to have the res come up at a higher value at startup after an unattended install. Thanks

HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG -> System -> CurrentControlSet -> Control -> Video.

Now, there should be a random string of characters there which represents the model of the video card in your system (for example, mine is {23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F48677­ 32A}). Open whichever one is there and click on "0000".

You can then change the values for DefaultSettings.XResolution and DefaultSettings.YResolution.

if you're doing an unattended install, why not set it in the answer file?

Actually that's what I was looking for. Where might I find the settings for that? Thanks
