Changing boot.ini with bootcfg
I'm making an unattended XP and I'm using a .cmd file wiht this command: bootcfg /raw /id 1 "/fastdetect /noexecute=AlwaysOff" But after installation when I look in the boot.ini file - it looks like this: [boot loader] timeout=30 default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS [operating systems] multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect /noexecute=Alwaysoff There is an extra gap between the ... XP Professional" and /fastdetect ... Does it matter?

How to add a registry key in HKEY_CURRENT_USER using RunOnce
Someone says, it's security risk. Perhaps safer, in my opinion, should be: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Attachments] "SaveZoneInformation"=dword:00000001 ???

How to add a registry key in HKEY_CURRENT_USER using RunOnce
Hi, can anybody tell me, what should I do, to add this in registry for all users, if I use the function RunOnce in nlite?: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Associations] "LowRiskFileTypes"=".exe" Or is there any better way, then change the Registry using .reg file and loging in every user account separately?

A tweak, would be very usefull - executing installators without questi
Hi John, just one question - is the "RunOnce" apply for all users? I'm asking because this tweak applies only on current user (just loged in) Thanks

An problem, if Windows Explorer folder view is "details"
Hi John, yes, I doubt too perhaps it is a problem with my CD drive (firmware) But I've found solution - maybe usefull for someone - set all folders on details - "use for all" - and then set only in folder "My computer" e.g. "icons" So you keep "details" in all folders, except "my computer", and it's O.K. Thanks

A tweak, would be very usefull - executing installators without questi
This key in registry ensure executing installators without questions, or waiting. [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Associations] "LowRiskFileTypes"=".exe"

An problem, if Windows Explorer folder view is "details"
If I set Windows Explorer folder view on "details" and everytime I insetr a CD or DVD, then the Windows Explorer freezes, or is restarted. Perhaps it's a bug in Windows XP? or in nLite?

XP home SP3 asks me for password, no password is set
Hi, i have nlited XP home with SP3 and there is a problem. I have 4 users and when I get into the login screen I can when I click first on any account login without password. But when I logout and try to login again, or login in other account, then it asks me for password. There is no password, so I only click on the arrow on the rihgt and it logins. I have tried to change things in control userpasswords2, but the result was, that one account logins without loginscreen directly. Is there any resolution?

WMP and Office XP
I have been wondering about, why is not possible to paste any sound into my documents created by Power Point - there was only the possiblility to paste wav - uncompressed files. I have tried to install alternative runtimes instead of the whole wmp (wmlite240), but there was no change. So I have been forced to install the whole wmp10 to make this run. I want to ask - could there be any possibility in future versions of nlite, to remove unneeded parts of the wmp, and retain only the codecs, or core?

nlite vs. XPlite vs. tinyXP
for example - why nlite doesn't square up with the oembios files? - these very slowes down the start up of the system ...
-
nlite vs. XPlite vs. tinyXP
Windows XP modified by nlite are quite stable and adjusted to needs of specific user XPlite can remove more things e. g. explorer shell (- to use alternative shell) and tinyXP is processed "before and also after" - so it is even more smaller and "tidy" so - what are your experiences?

nlite 1.3 final removes things, I didn't order to remove
Shell services - only audio CD autorun? - perhaps it is not so important ... (It is a strange thing, but flash disk works properly too ...) O. K., but what about Remote Procedure Call Locator - is it important for security? - how is it possible - it is missing? Workstation - if I remove Microsoft network - then it is removed too? - I'm sure it is important for many services - they're depended on it - E. g. just the Remote Procedure Call Locator - so it is maybe the reason, that RPC L is missing ... NT LM Security Support Provider - I hope it is important only for Message Queuing or Telnet I wish, nlite to be more transparent :-) P. S. http://www.blackviper.com IS IN SERVICE AGAIN !!!

nlite 1.3 final removes things, I didn't order to remove
For example: autorun of CD works (except autorun of audio CD ...), but the needed service in services.msc = Shell Hardware Detection = is not showed there. So I think - something is wrong with displaying of services in services.msc, but the services are still working?
