Can anybody help me with my last question?

Thanks! The system is running 1400x1050 so that shouldn't be a problem. I'm gonna work with that. But I still want to know (I know this is more of a scriptings question but I'm sure one of you guys knows this) how to remove a cmd file from the startup folder.

Hi there, I've finished my unattended install except for 1 small detail, I want to install the Cisco VPN Client with this unattended install but this doesn't work. First I made a single batch file for the installation to test if the unattended switch was working. CLS @echo off ECHO. ECHO Bezig met het installeren van de Cisco VPN Client.. start %systemdrive%\install\Applications\Cisco_VPN_Client\vpnclient_en.msi /q EXIT This works, the Client installs itselfs and reboots the computer. After that I just copy/pasted the right pieces in my applications.cmd and burned a DVD. The install went just fine, but the Cisco VPN Client didn't install. The last part of my application.cmd was: ECHO. ECHO Bezig met het installeren van de punten van aandacht... start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\PvA\Pva.msi /QB ECHO. ECHO Bezig met het installeren van de SMS Advanced Client... start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\SMS_Client\SMS_Advanced_Client.exe ECHO. ECHO Bezig met het installeren van de Cisco VPN Client.. start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\Cisco_VPN_Client\vpnclient_en.msi /q EXIT The SMS Advanced Client gets installed but the Cisco VPN Client isn't.... I also tried to copy a cmd file to the startup folder. This works but Windows Xp gets in a loop because the client needs a reboot from the system and I don't know how to remove it from this folder. I've tried to run another cmd-file from the script in the startupfolder but it doesn't remove that script. Can anybody help me with this?

I've tried to use the search but it gives to much information to go trough. So does anyone has a reg key for me that disables the shadows under menu's? Thanks in advance!

Thnx, gonna try this!

If I change this, should I use 'Computername=' or should I remove 'Computername' from the winnt.sif?

I want to have the abbility to make up computernames on the fly...and my guess is that this is managable with the winnt.sif file. But how?

Hi, I've got my unattended finished so far that I can make a final now, there's just one more thing to do and that's the following. During the install I want to add the computername manual but if I leave 'Computername=' empy it gives an error in the install. If it's possible the computername is the only thing that should be editted. Does someone knows how to realise this?

Did you manage to get some more information about this? I'm in over my head with this at the moment that I can't see any possible solution right now.

..sure, sure, but how do i get the adapter ID ?!?! since it's an unattended installation performed on different systems (different hardware) i suppose i cannot generalize this.. or am i wrong?!? ..another question: i use a lot of the regtweaks from this forum on a NON-english XP CD and most of them do not work; is this possible or have i done a mistake of some kind?! thx in advance Exactly, how do you generate a reg key that can be aplied on different system configs? monstersnatch -> Try to look up the reg key's in an existing registry in the same language. Compare them with the english reg tweaks and look if they exist.

I understand that part but how do I manipulate the reg key to be adaptable to different systems?

I found the reg key to add the network icon in the system tray: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Network\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\{A32CC6AF-AC13-4084-B7AE-7C073B98B0CC}\Connection] "ShowIcon"=dword:00000001 The problem that I have is this piece of the key A32CC6AF-AC13-4084-B7AE-7C073B98B0CC}. This seems to be different on every computer I tested. Is this generated at random or would it be likely that this would be the same for a brand or something like that?

Thnx. I've send b0r3d a PM.

Can nobody help me with this?

Hi there, I've got two questions about the unattended installation of Windows XP Prof. I used the msgina.dll-hack that has been described on this forum but I just found out there's a problem when shutting down from the menu that pops up when you press Ctrl-alt-del. If I shut the computer down trough 'Start' -> 'Shut down' it works like normal. But when I use the Ctrl-Alt-Del 'Shut down' I get a BSOD saying: Status: 0XC0000005 Stopcode: C000021A I allready did some troubleshooting but can't find anything in the eventlog, but what I did notice is that in the menu I get when I try to shut down the computer though 'Start' -> 'Shut down' the original Windows XP logo's are still there. Could somebody give me a lead in the right direction here? This isn't the default behaviour is it? The second question I've got is this: I'm making this unattended to be installed on a +200 seats workingspace with all identical hardware. I want to partition the hard disk (40 GB) in to two disks. How can I realize that with the least administrative work? I've found BartPE but that doesn't work with the Ghost 2003 version I've got. [EDIT] I know for sure the BSOD is created by the use of the hacked DLL, I've changed the reg key to point it to the original msgina.dll and this seems to work. Does anybody know what I did wrong? Thanks in advance for your time and efforts.
