I have been looking, and I found acouple things, but they where for XP's nilte add-on thing. Is there a way to make it so SPTD installs before you get to the WPI screen? Like when installing windows components, it has to reboot. That would be the perfect spot. Any ideas? Intergrade it as a driver somehow?

Ah ha, it worked. Thanks man.

Well im making an autoit for daemon tools, well here it is. Run("DAEMONTools.exe") WinWait("DAEMON Tools Pro Advanced Edition 4.10.0218","Welcome to the DAEMON") Send("{ENTER}") WinWait("DAEMON Tools Pro Advanced Edition 4.10.0218","Please review the license") Send("{ENTER}") WinWait("DAEMON Tools Pro Advanced Edition 4.10.0218","Choose which feature") Send("{TAB}{DOWN}{DOWN}{SPACE}{DOWN}{DOWN}{SPACE}{ENTER}") WinWait("DAEMON Tools Pro Advanced Edition 4.10.0218","Choose Install Locat") Send("{ENTER}") WinWait("DAEMON Tools Pro Advanced Edition 4.10.0218","In order to install") Send("{ENTER}") WinWait("Select personal key file to use") Send("c:\dtemp\key.4100218{ENTER}") WinWait("DAEMON Tools Pro Advanced Edition 4.10.0218","Completing the DAEMON") Send("{space}{ENTER}") exit I want to make it a silent install but when I put the ,"",@SW_HIDE behind "DAEMONTools.exe", It just hangs. ANy suggestions?

Thank you very much, I will try in a bit.

Yes I have selected the rite image.

I have gone there, but it didnt work. =\

Ok, so I want to make a custom installer for windows (when installing windows, differnt background color and window color). I know you have to edit SPWIZIMG.DLL in the sources directory, I have edited the file and the background hasnt changed.Is there another file I have to edit? ( I have edited the one in the support>migwiz folder and in the sources folder, and in install.wim. Is there anything I missed?

Ya I found that out

Bump? Anyone?

Im alittle confised rite now. What do you want to do? If you want to downlaod a file NOT IE then you need another browser (or a download manager).

Rite click on the xls file and to to the general yab (if your not already there). Where it says "opens with" click "change..." Browse to the Excel directory, click on the Excel executable (Excel.exe maybe?) open it. Then click apply then ok. Now all xls files should open in Excel.

Is there a way to remove the startup orb? Never mind I found it.

Well first thing you need is vlite (which can be found Here)I then slipstream SP1 and all updates after that SP1 (do not remove anything before slipstreaming). I then go through all fo the programs that are being instaled (all microsoft progs) and remove all the stuff that is not needed (hover over the text to see if its needed or not). Tweak some of the services (you can use black vipers tutorial which is found Here). The you can make it unatended (dont have to put in key and such). Then make it into an ISO image (on the last tab in vlite) and burn it to a disc. Hope it helps alittle.

Well I havent striped out anything yet, so im used to the "small" folder of my striped out version.

What OS are you using?

Is there a way to add a folder to the right side of startmenu?

Is there a way to have logon studio, logon skin but have it so login studio is not installed? Like edit a file to have it so I have my custom logon screen, but no thirdparty software?

Nope, its 32, and a clean install.

The thing is, I havent install ANY programs yet.

Wow really? Mine is about 2 gig. Thanks crahak.

So I was testing my edited windows on a virtual machine, and I gave it 10GB of hard drive space. Well next thing I new it, it was full. I dug around and I found it was the winsxs folder in the windows folder. The folder is almost 6GB's!! I dont know why its so big, its never happened before to me. Any suggestions? Shadow

Oh ok, Buster, I get an error when I try and mount the wim file. It says it cant find imagex. Then I tryed a program to open it (winmount). But there was no "web" folder in the windows folder. Edit: fixed

Thank you very much Buster and MAVERICKS.

Ok thanks, but it could be done, Like deleting the OOBE.CMD, DELL.REG, RUNBCD.EXE, SYSTEM.CMD and DELL.XM files?

Question 1. Well im wondering, in the system properties, it shows the manufacturer. So I looked through the folder setup (sources>$OEM$>$$>Setup>Scripts) and there are acouple files there. Now to make it so the dell logo in the system properties is none existant, could I delete OOBE.CMD, DELL.REG, RUNBCD.EXE, SYSTEM.CMD and DELL.XML and it would remove the manufacturer logo and message thing? Question 2. How can I have a default background when you install the OS, like a custom background on install? Thanks in advance. Shadow
