Yes I have been reading a lot. Huge thanks to you.

I have read after reading and again for the Unattended Guide for this one. I have HKLM.REG and HKCU.REG files but they doesn't run in setup. I cant figure out what am I doing wrong. Can Anyone help? I've been usin nLite, Setup works just like it should but the registry tweaks don't apply. Not even if I tweak them with nLite. Here is winnt.sif that I'm using ; Generated by nLite 1.4.5 beta [Data] AutomaticUpdates="Yes" Autopartition=1 MsDosInitiated=0 UnattendedInstall="Yes" [Unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended UnattendSwitch="yes" OemPreinstall="yes" OemSkipEula="Yes" ProgramFilesDir="D:\Program Files" CommonProgramFilesDir="D:\Program Files\Common Files" FileSystem=* WaitForReboot="No" NoWaitAfterTextMode=1 NoWaitAfterGUIMode=1 DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore NonDriverSigningPolicy=Ignore Hibernation="No" [Display] Xresolution=1024 Yresolution=768 BitsPerPel=32 Vrefresh=85 [SystemRestore] MaximumDataStorePercentOfDisk=10 [GuiUnattended] AdminPassword=* TimeZone=125 OEMSkipRegional=1 OemSkipWelcome=1 ProfilesDir="E:\Users\" [Shell] DefaultThemesOff="Yes" DefaultStartPanelOff="Yes" [Components] msmsgs=off msnexplr=off zonegames=off mswodpad=off zonegames=off [UserData] ProductKey="xxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx" ComputerName=PCNAME FullName="JOHN DOE" OrgName="JOHN DOELAND" [RegionalSettings] SystemLocale="040b" UserLocale="040b" UserLocale_DefaultUser="040b" InputLocale="040b:0000040B" InputLocale_DefaultUser="040b:0000040B" [Networking] InstallDefaultComponents="Yes" [WindowsFirewall] Profiles=WindowsFirewall.TurnOffFirewall [WindowsFirewall.TurnOffFirewall] Mode=0 [Identification] JoinWorkgroup="Toimisto" [Url] Home_Page=http://www.google.fi [IEPopupBlocker] BlockPopups=Yes FilterLevel=High ShowInformationBar=No [GuiRunOnce] "%SystemRoot%\System32\nLite.cmd" And my cmdlines.txt [COMMANDS] "REGEDIT32.EXE /S hkcu.reg" And nlite.cmd REGEDIT /S %CDROM%\HKLM.REG EXIT I don't know if here is enough info bur please ask more if needed...

Yes. That made the thing. But now I was wondering if there is possible way to autopartition. Can unattended setup be set to split harddrive into three partitions and to format them automatically. I gues xp installation it self would not do that, but if there is any application to run before windows installation. and sorry if I am asking stupid guestions

Thanks! I am going to make this unattended installation to a new hdd. I allready made 3 partitions and formatted them. I allso have modified the WINNT.SIF file as shown in the topic you pointed. I can see now that the test installatinon with vmware workstation didn't work because the partitions CAN be created but CANT be formatted during the istallation. Meaning that the windows puts drive letters only to formatted drives. So I will have to make those three partition into the virtual disk before I setup windows? Am I correct?

I have allready visited there.. thanks anyway

Does anyone know how to make windows installation set the default "program files" folder to separate partition in unattended installation of xp? I wish to install xp into active partition as usual ©, Program files to second partition (D) and I wish the windows to set user files into the third partition (E) by default. Is that possible during the installation or will I have to move these folders afterwards within regedit or something. I Have been using nLite and vmware workstation to try this. But after installation memory fails and the virtual machine restarted several times before I powered of. If you need more info about what I have tryed, please ask. Sorry if my english is poor.
