Admin password isn't blank, I just blanked out the encrypted password when I posted it. I'm REALLY paranoid sometimes... Someone might decrypt it? I need to lose the quotes on UnattendedSwitch=Yes, correct? And I confused on the Repartion item... I want to boot from CD and wipe the exsisting HDD of all data and partitions. Would AutoPartition alone do that for me? The ref.cfm file is a little vague. Thanks!

I have a fairly simple unattended disk that I am working on for my employer. It is supposed to install Windows XP SP2 fully unattended, then login once and process a quick set of RunOnceEx entries. All is fine and dandy except for the welcome screen. For some reason, I am having to answer the Windows Firewall Question, create a local user, and optionally register. I just want it to auto login as the local administrator account and perform the RunOnceEx entries. Here is my winnt.sif file: ;SetupMgrTag [Data] AutoPartition=1 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes" AutomaticUpdates=yes [Unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=Yes Repartition=Yes UnattendedSwitch="Yes" TargetPath=\WINDOWS WaitForReboot="No" [GuiUnattended] AdminPassword=* EncryptedAdminPassword=Yes OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=20 OemSkipWelcome=1 AutoLogin=Yes [Display] BitsPerPel=32 Xresolution=800 Yresolution=640 VRefresh=60 AutoConfirm=1 [UserData] ProductKey=* FullName="*" OrgName="*" ComputerName=xpnewinstall [TapiLocation] CountryCode=1 AreaCode=* [Identification] JoinWorkgroup=WORKGROUP [Networking] InstallDefaultComponents=Yes [Components] msmsgs=off msnexplr=off freecell=off hearts=off minesweeper=off pinball=off spider=off solitaire=off zonegames=off [WindowsFirewall] Profiles = WindowsFirewall.standard_profile, WindowsFirewall.domain_profile LogFile = %WINDIR%\Pfirewall.log LogSize = 4096 LogDroppedPackets = 1 LogConnections = 1 [WindowsFirewall.Standard_profile] Type=1 Mode=1 Exceptions=0 [WindowsFirewall.Domain_profile] Type=0 Mode=1 Exceptions=1 Services=WindowsFirewall.AllServices PortOpenings=WindowsFirewall.DameWare [WindowsFirewall.AllServices] Type=5 Mode=1 Scope=1 [WindowsFirewall.DameWare] Protocol=6 Port=6129 Name=DameWare Mode=1 Scope=1 [WindowsFirewall.Ping] Type=8 Mode=1 Any suggestions?
