I tryed to install Java (jxpiinstall.exe) silently with /quiet switch, works just fine but it brings some error message about network settings during unattended install, is there a switch which would overcome this error, or is network connection needed when java is installed? Thanks in advance!

Can't i just use the image that i have now (or it's contents) and install with that source, only making the disc for starting the process in the target pc. If it just asks the partition and then the setup source ip and share folder =)

Which one of BDD do you recommend Standard or Enterprise? I guess Standard is good enough for home LAN http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/results...;DisplayLang=en

Wow, those gotta be the fastest PC:s ever, but really is there need for 8gigas of RAM? ;D I have 512MB and worked fine till now, but some extra ram would be needed, maybe 2GB. ^^

Hi! Is it possible to install unattended XP from .iso file via LAN to another PC? I guess I need to make some kind of start disc or CD to the target PC and then write some commands, that it connects to right ip and share folder where the iso file is and then it should go normally unattended the setup just the same as from CD or DVD? Thanks in advance! You guys are great

Hi! I tryed to add user Heikki as administrator, but when the first boot comes, it doesn't recognize it as a admin, and popups the attached screen. ps. Järjestelmänvalvoja = Administrator Järjestelmänvalvojat = Administrators cmdlines.txt: [COMMANDS] "useraccounts.cmd" "RunOnceEx.cmd" useraccounts.cmd: net user Järjestelmänvalvoja /delete net user Heikki /add net localgroup Järjestelmänvalvojat Heikki /add net accounts /maxpwage:unlimited REGEDIT /S autologon.reg shutdown.exe -r -f -t 10 EXIT autologon.reg: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] "DefaultUserName"="Heikki" "DefaultPassword"="" "AutoAdminLogon"="1"

Nice Looks good, i test it right away, and how it works

Thank you Randy for the tip!

Yeah, i've watched this, and every time when they get far enough, they put so hard questions, that its nearly impossible to know the right alternative, and all the straws have been used during the first steps

Still got problems, I modified the script to Run("%systemdrive%\install\Applications\RegCleaner.exe") But it seems that AutoIT wont regognize the %systemdrive%, because when i tryed this with Virtual, it popuped error when trying to find the exe from %systemdrive% not from C:\

Hi! I tryed to add my user to Administrators group with the cmdlines method, but after testing with Virtual PC, it popuped the user selection menu during first boot, that my user didn't have administrative rights, i have a Finnish version Windows XP, do I have to change the /add command, to change the line "Administratives" to Finnish version, because its translated if you go to Computer Management > Users & Groups Thanks! EDIT: Do I have to edit the useraccounts.cmd like this: net user Heikki heikki /add net localgroup Järjestelmänvalvojat Heikki /add net accounts /maxpwage:unlimited REGEDIT /S autologon.reg net user Järjestelmänvalvoja /delete EXIT Cheers Pete

Nice monitor dude The picture is little too dark, would be better if some lights on, but good enough to see what kind of monitor you have

Thank you for the tip, Daedlus

No problem, just have to do some Googling

Thanks! You know trick to get the Wallpaper changed from the default Landscape version?

My cleanup.cmd didn't even start to delete the install-folder files, but i guess when its last one in the script i have to hit enter after it, so it won't wait for user to hit enter when only copying the script to command prompt

I wonder does the same syntax /qb /norestart SERIALNUM_USERVAL="xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx" work for Adobe Photoshop Elements

I just love Kingston memory, i also have Flash memorys which are from Kingston

Hi! How can i copy my IE/FF Favorites from $OEM$ folder to right places during install, or do I have to do this in RunOnceEx? And how can select wallpaper, so that its there when XP first time starts Thanks in advance!

Hi! I have Ique 3600 with GPS, and its great device, just popup the gps and with all europe maps drive trough citys with real voice guidance. Or then play games, apps etc. from Palm device Personally I think Palm is good choice, if not Windows fan.

X1600 sounds nice, but i guess its not the most expensive model, there was the XTX model?

Maybe you should do more reading and less looking at the pictures? It isn't even based on the same kernel anymore. WDDM (D3D10) is enough to write a book on; the new way it handles audio streams could be similarly long. The entirely new network stack and kernel level interface with TOE/RSS/RDMA functions take up about 100 pages in their whitepaper form and is incredibly different than what we have now. Native support for IA32/IA64/x86-64 architectures versus some tacked-on BS with XP is also incredibly different. Even the entirely new driver interface is WORLDS better in terms of performance, stability and functionality than the NT5.x kernel. To someone who just looks at the screenshots, you might somehow say "well, you can do that with XP." The reality is, no you can't. You can't have sub-0.5ms response times from any audio streams let alone ones processed in full 32-bit floating point format. You can't virtualize video ram and send "multithreaded" apps to GPU functional resources. You can't use TCPOE technology nor receive side scaling on your network interface, the list can go on for miles. What is all that crap I just spewed and why is any of that important? Maybe you should go read a bit I've mentioned it before on this forum elsewhere, and I'm going to reiterate it here. Vista will be the single biggest leap into new OS technology that Microsoft has ever undertaken. And yeah, it's going to soak up more resources because of the new features. A Kia Rio can haul you back and forth to work daily without issue. A BMW 745iL can haul you back and forth to work daily without issue. Why might someone buy a BMW over a Kia? Why might someone buy Vista over XP? Yes ofcourse theres is something new, otherwise there wouldn't be sense to sell it, because nobody would buy it (This was mostly a joke, because every vista page, is showing huge collection of screenshots and the 3d effects, but its not even nearly the reasons why people will buy it when it comes out)

F-secure

None of those, F-secure, and its said that it has the fastest reply time to viruses, for example comparatively to Norton...

There was once a enterprise review in newspaper, and ofcourse our friend Microsoft won it, they said it's the best place of employment to have, don't remember the other canditates, was it IBM and HP the following ones. I guess it's not easy to have even a trainee place from MS, there's so many good canditates going there on queue
