Isn't it easier to run this command from RunOnceEx.cmd: NET USE <drive letter>: \\<computername>\<sharename> I have no experience with mapping network drives in an unattended setup, so I don't know if it's even possible.

I have this problem too on my server, but I didn't run an unattended install on there. I believe I did apply my registry tweaks there though. Also, are you really missing everything? I'm missing like half of the features (like show My Documents on Start Menu). Oh well, I did find this in your registry tweaks: ;----- ;----- Change the Default Wallpaper to the one you want ;----- [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\General] "BackupWallpaper"="%%systemroot%%\\wallpaper\\ScotRiver2.bmp" "Wallpaper"="%%systemroot%%\\web\\wallpaper\\ScotRiver2.bmp" BackupWallpaper should probably be %%systemroot%%\\web\\wallpaper\\ScotRiver2.bmp too.

This should work: [COMMANDS] "RunOnceEx.cmd" "UserAccounts.cmd" "IESmallIcon.cmd" "REGEDIT /S RegTweaks.reg" "BOOTCFG /RAW \"/EXECUTE /FASTDETECT\" /ID 1"

Put it in C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

Are you running winnt32.exe (from Windows)? NTUpgrade will only work with winnt32.exe.

Yes, it replaces the presets, but your reg file does that too. I tested it on my HKCU key, because I disabled the Places bar, but I'll reenable it and see if I can change it so it will add places instead of overwriting them. Edit: Alright, I misunderstood you. I thought you meant it erased the default places, but you meant it wasn't showing any places at all. I just tested it, and apparently you don't need the two slashes in a vbs file. Use one slash and it will work.

This key doesn't exist on my system? (XP SP2 NL)

You have to open cmd.exe in ResHacker, not your .bat file. And if you just want to change the icon of the shortcut, it's not neccesary to hack cmd.exe. Nakira's method will be enough.

BOOTCFG /RAW "/NOGUIBOOT" /A /ID 1 will add /noguilogo to the first OS in boot.ini. Edit: doh, too late hp38guser's commands will work too.

And here's the not so messy vbs file : Set Shell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") I = 0 For Each Drive in FSO.Drives If Drive.DriveType = 2 Then Shell.RegWrite "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\ComDlg32\PlacesBar\Place" & I, Drive.DriveLetter & ":\" I = I + 1 End If Next No external files needed, just run it from anywhere you like Edit: Replaced the double slashes with one slash.

If the cd is on a network share, you can easily slipstream SP2 with the cd, and then run X:\I386\winnt32.exe /unattended

Some sites where you can learn and find examples: PHP http://www.w3schools.com/php http://www.php.net http://www.phpbuilder.com http://www.phpfreaks.com SQL http://www.w3schools.com/sql I'll see if I can find some more, because the other PHP sites I have are Dutch... Basic PHP & MySQL isn't that hard to learn, but it's basically finding examples and trying out yourself. I'm not an expert at both PHP and MySQL, but I know the basics (and I'm a quick learner ), so if you want any help, just send me a PM or something.

Like the site says, there is no basic structure for a DAT file. Meaning it can be anything: audio, video, a picture, text, etc. They just renamed it to .dat so you can't recognize it. The only way you might recognize it is by opening it in Notepad, and see if you find something you recognize.

The option in add/remove programs will only remove the shortcuts to OE, there's no way to uninstall it after Windows was installed.

If reg.exe works fine on 2000, I think it's easier to use the batch file instead of the reg file.

I'm sorry, I read your post wrong I thought it said that you're always searching beyond the title of the topic. Yes, you're right that you not always get what you want, but that has little to do with the search, but with people who post it. I don't think nuhi should leave the unregmp2.exe file out of the removal process, since it's a file that belongs to WMP. If you want it to stay, just put the filename in the Keep Files box, and you're done.

FileSystem has two values: ConvertNTFS or LeaveAlone. It has nothing to do with weither you want to format the drive, but with if you want convert it to NTFS or not.

If you use this tweak to autologon: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] "DefaultUsername"="Username" "DefaultPassword"="Password" "AutoAdminLogon"="1" Use this tweak to remove the autologon: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] "DefaultUsername"=- "DefaultPassword"=- "AutoAdminLogon"=-

This has probably nothing to do with your winnt.sif, but with your txtsetup.sif. Have you modified that file?

If you take some time to learn how to use the search, you can do everything you just said. Just take a look at the Refine Search section of the search. There you can select if you want to search in titles or in posts, and you can show the results in posts. That way, you don't have to wade through the whole thread, but you get the post you need right away.

Nope, just search for wget with Google.

You don't need to put the icon the the same folder, the icon can be anywhere on your drive. Also, if you just want the icon to change, you only need IconFile and IconIndex. @SiMoNsAyS: I didn't know that the folder had to have the system attribute, but you're right

Well, the way you did it should work, but the problem is that you're importing your RunOnceEx on first login. So your applications will be installed on second login. It's better to do what cartoonite said.
