Thanks for the replies, guys. I have been working on creating the successful CD, I am pretty close. I am still ending up with a 2nd. used account that I have to delete when the install is completed, but I will keep at it! Any ideas on this one?

Yes, I agree I am missing that part - I will look it over Real close when I do it again. Also, I removed the 2nd. account, but now I get the password prompt box when I start windows. I guess that is another setting I am overlooking too. Problem is, there are several options I don't fully understand, even after looking over the guides. I have been reading threads that allow you to include the activation, so it will already be activated when installed, but I am confused by the methods! Is there an easy way to do that? Thank you :-)

Hi all, I have been turned on to this wonderful program a couple of weeks ago, & have been using it, or rather trying to. But I am having a couple "quirks" with my ISO creation. I am missing something during creation, but I can't seem to figure out what or where. I am slipstreaming only XP Home & SP2, no drivers, hotfixes, etc. 1. When I boot from the CD, during the install, all goes well, but at one point I am prompted to enter Name/Workgroup. I obviously don't want this, as I am after an unattended install. 2. After install is complete, on each boot, I am given the log in screen - choose Owner or User. I want to boot directly to desktop, I have no need for the additional account. I know these are easy ones for you experienced users, but this noob is stuck! I have run the program several times, & for some reason, I can't figure out where I am goofing up at. Thank you discmelter
