Yes, so you will have to apply them yourself (extract them to C:\Windows\Resources\Themes, go to Display Settings -> Appearances and select the visual style from the dropdown list) and then go to the Themes tab and click the Save As button to get a theme file.
You could also copy the Luna.theme file, open it in Notepad, look for the VisualStyles section and set Path to the path of your msstyles file.

The problem is that the users aren't created yet at T-12, so I believe you can only do it after first logon. If you logon with your own account the first time, you can import the registry settings to HKEY_CURRENT_USER, so they will be applied after you reboot. If that isn't the case, you could look for a program that returns the SID of a username, and then write the registry settings to HKEY_USERS\SID.

Just set your theme the way you want, go to your Display Settings, and choose Save As on the Themes tab.

The following command works for me (all on one line):
convert -font %SystemRoot%\Fonts\Arial.ttf -fill white -pointsize 18 -draw "text 10,20 'Floriade 2002, Canberra, Australia'" floriade.jpg comment.jpg
- You need to specify the full path to your font file.
- You need to specify the draw string in double quotes, and the text in single quotes.
The following DLLs are needed to use convert.exe:
CORE_RL_bzlib_.dll
CORE_RL_jpeg_.dll
CORE_RL_lcms_.dll
CORE_RL_magick_.dll
CORE_RL_tiff_.dll
CORE_RL_ttf_.dll
CORE_RL_zlib_.dll
MSVCR71.dll
X11.dllAlso, convert.exe depends on some other components installed by ImageMagick, which are the modules and a registry tweak.
And here's the command to replace the background in ntoskrnl.exe using Resource Hacker:
ResHacker.exe -modify "%SystemRoot%\system32\ntoskrnl.exe", "<new filename>", "<modified bitmap>", BITMAP,1,
0 - You need to specify the full path to your font file.

Type NET ACCOUNTS /? to see how /MAXPWAGE works and NET LOCALGROUP to see which groups you can add your user to (I believe it's Users instead of User, but I don't have an English machine, so I can't check).

Yes. Read the unattended page on Auto Logon.

Yes, that's the one theme file you shouldn't have opened in Notepad
Open Luna.theme and look for the word "luna.msstyles".And try not to post two topics about the same thing.

No, you'll have to create a theme file and use that as value for CustomDefaultThemeFile. The unattended website describes the following:
CustomDefaultThemeFile = "%WinDir%\Resources\Themes\MyTheme.theme"This option sets the default theme that windows will use, this can be a custom theme or another default theme included with Windows XP. This will mean that XP will not boot up using the default Luna theme, but with a theme you set in this option.

Just use this:
REGEDIT /S sys.reg

There's a missing ; in the bold part.

There's no way to delete the Administrative Tools folder, because it's protected by Windows
I guess the best way would be to hide the Administrative Tools folder from your start menu. I use this command also to hide the Startup folder.ATTRIB -S +H "%UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Administrative Tools"

I believe you should use fixmbr instead of fixboot to get ntldr back.

1) Remove your key from your post.
2) Make sure your file isn't called winnt.sif.txt.

I don't know if this will work because I haven't tried it.
But I call a file in cmdlines.txt to set up accounts.
accounts.bat
net user administrator /delete
net user newadmin password /add
net localgroup Administrators newadmin /addThat won't work, because Administrator is a built-in account, so you can't delete it. There are alot of programs to rename the Administrator account. Just search.

You're the one that's misunderstanding it here
/T actually sets the timeout for when CHKNTFS is run.syntaxCHKNTFS drive: [...] CHKNTFS /C drive: [...]
CHKNTFS /X drive: [...]
CHKNTFS /T[:time]
CHKNTFS /D
key
drive : Specifies a drive letter.
/C : Check - schedules chkdsk to be run at the next reboot.
/X : Exclude a drive from the default boot-time check.
Excluded drives are not accumulated between command invocations.
/T : Change the Autochk.exe initiation countdown time (time in seconds)
If you don't specify Time: displays the current countdown time.
/D : Restore the machine to the default behavior; all drives are checked at boot time and chkdsk is run on those that are dirty.
This undoes the effect of the /X option.
If no switches are specified, CHKNTFS will display the status of the dirty bit for each drive.
/T option is new in Win XP

CHKNTFS /T:0
where 0 obviously is the time in seconds.

He just wants to add the shortcuts to his desktop, not change the icons...
You could've found this one easily, but whatever, here it is. For the My Computer and My Documents icons to show, and all the other Windows icons to hide, use the following regtweak:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\NewStartPanel]
"{208D2C60-3AEA-1069-A2D7-08002B30309D}"=dword:00000001
"{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}"=dword:00000000
"{450D8FBA-AD25-11D0-98A8-0800361B1103}"=dword:00000000
"{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000001
"{FBF23B42-E3F0-101B-8488-00AA003E56F8}"=dword:00000000For the other shortcuts, use something like shortcut.exe to create them. To delete shortcuts, just use the DEL command in a batch file.
Edit: woops, my bad, the reg tweak should be the other way around. Fixed it now.

Or install the Recovery Console to your harddrive with the following command:
WINNT32 /CMDCONS

The registry entries are located here:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar\Explorer]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar\ShellBrowser]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar\WebBrowser]It's the value called ITBarLayout.

You can do exactly what you want with CMenuExtender.
TNX but i'm looking for doing that Unattended
Well, you can do that too. First use the provided program to create your menu, and then export the following key:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Revenger inc.\CMenuExtender\Contents]
After that just put cmext.dll in $OEM$\$$\system32 and register it with:
REGSVR32 /S cmext.dll
And then you can import the registry settings from anywhere you like.

Here we go. A quick search in the registry revealed where the user variables are stored:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment]
"TEMP"="temp directory here"0 -
@ prathapml
Do you not mean
[Shell]
DefaultStartPanelOff = No
DefaultThemesOff = YesNo, he means
[Shell]
DefaultStartPanelOff = Yes
DefaultThemesOff = Yes0 -
@gunsmokingman: your commands will only work for that batch file, it's not permament. This however is:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment]
"TEMP"="temp directory here"
"TMP"="temp directory here"This will only change the Windows\Temp directory though, not the user variable (which is set to %UserProfile%\Local Settings\Temp).

Open Luna.theme and look for the word "luna.msstyles".

Edit: sorry, you were talking about hacking, so I figured you didn't buy it. I just read the same as Shark007 said on xpmce.com, you can't install MCE just like that. Maybe you can get a key changer to change your key to your MCE key, and then try to install it...
