With an Hex editor you can change an hexadecimal value in a binary file at a specific offset. If it don't help you to understand download this hex editor and play with it. Be carefull to not change values in files you don't know. This can make the file not working anymore. Free HHD Hex Editor

Sound or music? Maybe it's this one TITLE.WMA (music) %systemdrive%\WINDOWS\system32\oobe\images\

Well it's not really related to slipstreaming. If you got the XPSP2.EXE and execute it you should see the files extraction process and a wizard to guide you (only the wizard if you execute directly update.exe). Maybe your service pack got corrupted while downloading. That's what I can see. If you don't have MB limits with your ISP then try downloading again, if you have MB limits wait for other post.

If you want to include a service pack into Windows source files before burning a new CD or if you want to include a service pack into Office source files before the installation then it is called slipstreaming a service pack. If you need to install Windows or Office several times then it's a good idea to slipstream the service pack for saving time after the installation.

Add these line in cleanup.cmd.. reg delete HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run /v ChikkaIM /f reg add HKCU\Software\GameHouse\TextTwist /v FullScreen /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

There's a link to another way to connect printer. I'm not very confident but it cost nothing to try... VBScript by Interface

@peter o. It's surely not legal like many files distributed on the Web but if you use it for your personal use (not distribution) - As long as you don't host those files on your own Web site well I don't mind if others take this risk. The legality of the Web possibilities, is and will be for a long time, a problem. The old laws are just ineffective like for P2P. It's off-topics - sorry.

DVDPack and MP3Pack are MSI I always keep in a backup disk. MP3Pack enable WMP9 to encode audio file to MP3 instead of WMA. For now I don't have a DVD Player but I keep DVDPack for when I will buy one. I'm enough sure DVDPack (even if I have not test it) is like MP3Pack, so Yes, you just have to add this MSI in your batch and it will enable WMP9 as a DVD player with nothing else to do. If it don't please give me a feed back about it.

Try this one DVDPack

I made a little test with regmon and the registry key for that seem to be "Position" at this registry path Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\Components\0] "Position"=hex:2c,00,00,00,9c,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,64,03,00,00,e4,02,00,00,00,\ 00,00,00,01,00,00,00,01,00,00,00,01,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00 Make this test: set the taskbar to 2 lines display and export this registry key value and put it in your unattend registry tweak. If your lucky it will work.

Link Disable WMP9 first run

It's a hard one... unlock_taskbar.reg Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced] "TaskbarSizeMove"=dword:00000001 But for the 2 lines display I'm not sure it's possible unattended Wait for other posts but don't expect too much with this.

Like jrzycrim say for an explorer window you need CMDOW. Free and good for that and many other things... CMDOW

I don't know pskill but in Windows XP there is taskkill.exe TASKKILL.EXE /IM NOTEPAD.EXE Is it what you want?

Personnally I would like to use the french version but with this translate version there's always bugs (minor bugs) that made me swtich to the english version. For example when I set the display of a folder to details, the french version can switch it back to icons display after 1 week or 2 for no reasons. That's one example. With the english version I don't have this kind of behaviors. The english version seem to be more predictable and stable for me.

@jrzycrim I put this line since long time ago and didn't know it was useless for my CD Thanks for the tips

FIRST you should not put your CD KEY - edit your post and replace cd key with XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX Missing line here [Unattended] OemFilesPath="..\$OEM$" Doesn't mean it will solve all your unattended problem but it's a start. .....

Looks like those files are corrupted Quick Launch Path... %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

I have tried to test that on my XP Pro but when I set a GPO the members of Users group cannot open gpedit.msc to change anything. Make sure your users are really in the Users group and not in the Power Users group. If your users are in the right group then keep using settings right on mmc.exe if it work.

If your 60 users mean 60 computers then you should really think about having a windows server domain. When you set group policy on a domain it can't be changed by local client users. Also you have the advantage to have a central configuration point - you don't need to set gpo on each computers anymore. You can configure policy for specific groups or users. Saving times... More security...

You do it the same way of the other clicking and stuff... Just enter the numbers or letters of a serial one by one with SendKeys var WSS = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell"); WSS.Run("PROGRAM.EXE"); WScript.Sleep(500); WSS.SendKeys("{1}"); WSS.SendKeys("{2}"); WSS.SendKeys("{3}"); WSS.SendKeys("{4}"); WSS.SendKeys("{-}"); WSS.SendKeys("{5}"); WSS.SendKeys("{6}"); WSS.SendKeys("{ENTER}");

I don't know which language they used for SETUP.EXE , maybe C++ or MASM but anyway, just forget about decompile.

You need to know a programming language to be able to build your own SETUP.EXE. Visual Basic have the advantage to be easy to learn and you can build functional form very fast. I have downloaded Autoplay Studio and if you don't want to learn programming it's a good alternative. It build the ISO DVD for you and you just need to burn. I think the difficult part for you will be to program the button to start to correct program on the DVD but if you put some effort you will see that it is not so hard to do. If you don't need a cool Graphic-User-Interface, you could also just write a batch file to start to correct program and you put them at the root of the DVD. Exemple WINXPSP1.CMD START .\WINXPSP1\I386\WINNT32.EXE /parameters

I suggest to create your own SETUP.EXE in a language of your choice and just replace the one on the CD by yours. You won't have any problem doing so.
