bryanh Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Have you burned your unattended DVD with all the works? Have you wanted to use it on someone elses machine but all the initial settings were how you wanted it to work on your machine. For example the Administrators password, the Initial user login ID, the workgroup and computer name.Well if you answered yes to any of these question you want to check out WISCON. WISCON is the Windows Initial System CONfigurator.You can get it Here(from the makers of WAIT) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alanoll Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Am I correct in assuming that all this change is Admin password, creates a user, and changes a few registry keys?Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, if you put this in your CMDLINES.TXT file it will run at T+11. So it's not "after you install" but actually PART of an install (or at least that is how I use it).In this manner you can build you UA CD (with admin password and machine name) configured the way you like to install on your machines, but if you ever use the CD to help someone else, you can enter the information when WISCON runs and it will be configured the way the person you are helping wants it.Of course can CAN run it whenever you want. That's just how I use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bryanh Posted June 5, 2005 Author Share Posted June 5, 2005 Version 02 is now out.Here are the updatesVersion 02------------Added an INI file for configuration. It has the following items under the [CONFIG] sectionAutoTimeout - How many seconds before automatically clicking the OK buttonNewUser - If 1 will automatically check the "Create New User" boxNewUserID - will fill in the "UserID" edit box of the "Create New User" groupNewUserPassword - will fill in the "Password" edit box of the "Create New User" groupNewUserInAdminGroup - If 1 will put the new UserID in the Administrators groupNewUserAutoLogin - If 1 will set the new UserID to automatically login on the next rebootEditAdmin - If 1 will automatically check the "Edit Administrator USer" box AdminPassword - will fill in the "Password" edit box of the "Edit Administartor User" groupAdminAutoLogin - If 1 will set the Administartor to automatically login on the next rebootEditComputer - If 1 will automatically check the "Edit Computer Settings" box Owner - Will fill in the "Owner" edit box with this textOrg= - Will fill in the "Organization" edit box with this textWorkgroupName - Will fill in the "Workgroup" edit box with this textComputerName - Will fill in the "Computer Name" edit box with this text- If you set Autotimeout and all the NewUser fields of the ini file then you can stop using scripts to create the new user (usually using net user) and autologin (making registry edits to autologin said user).- If you only set "Autotimeout" then when the timer runs out the application will do nothing. This will allow you to have WISCON in your unattended install and if you do not want to enter new information then nothing will happen. This gives you total flexability.

Ben.Hahlen Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 In the download-link just change the v01 to v02 and you've got the correct file .I'm using the program @cmdlines.txt, and I love it .It provides me with a hassle-free method of installing PC's.
