Hi Folks after everyones help in various forums i have managed to create my 1st unattended cd......but with mixed sucess Im using Nlite and i thought i understood it well. Can someone check through my winnt.sif file and answer the few questions i have please Im also testing my cd on a virtual machine Winnt.Sif ; Generated by nLite 1.4.8 [Data] AutomaticUpdates="Yes" Autopartition=1 MsDosInitiated=0 UnattendedInstall="Yes" [unattended] UnattendMode=DefaultHide UnattendSwitch="Yes" OemPreinstall="Yes" OemSkipEula="Yes" FileSystem=* WaitForReboot="No" NoWaitAfterTextMode=1 NoWaitAfterGUIMode=1 DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore NonDriverSigningPolicy=Ignore AutoActivate=YES OemSkipWelcome=1 [Display] Xresolution=1024 Yresolution=768 BitsPerPel=32 Vrefresh=75 [systemRestore] MaximumDataStorePercentOfDisk=10 [GuiUnattended] EncryptedAdminPassword="No" AutoLogon="Yes" TimeZone=085 OEMSkipRegional=1 OemSkipWelcome=1 [shell] DefaultStartPanelOff="Yes" [Components] msmsgs=off AccessOpt=off msnexplr=off zonegames=off Media_clips=off Dialer=off Fax=off Hypertrm=off Media_utopia=off Mousepoint=off Media_clips=off Templates=off TerminalServer=off Deskpaper=off [WindowsFirewall] Profiles=WindowsFirewall.TurnOnFirewall [WindowsFirewall.TurnOnFirewall] Mode = 1 [userData] ProductKey="************" ComputerName=JOHNS FullName="John" OrgName="Mine" [RegionalSettings] LanguageGroup=1 SystemLocale="0809" UserLocale="0809" UserLocale_DefaultUser="0809" InputLocale="0809:00000809" InputLocale_DefaultUser="0809:00000809" [Networking] InstallDefaultComponents="Yes" [identification] JoinWorkgroup="workgroup" [GuiRunOnce] %systemdrive%\install\start.cmd 1) I want to install Win XP as my c drive with no partations and formatted by NTFS 2) The install still asks me to insert a Computer name 3) I get this error message "error creating process <tzchange.exe /f "egypt standard time" /s the system cannot find the file specfied, and if i click on ok the install continues - now im not aware of removing anything like this, but is there a way i can add it back 4) Im the only one that uses my pc so i only require 1 username and i dont want a password. but when the install had finished i had 3 usernames john the one i wanted and 2 others (New User & Owner). how do i make it so they extra 2 users dont get set up and it loads straight onto my desktop 5) Is there a command or something that i can run after the first bootup (only) that will allow me to close programs or reboot my machine again 6) My display settings (size, depth and refresh rate) are never set to what i have in my Winnt.sif file....is this because im using a virtual machine? 7) Somewhere in nLite i have disable Theme Services...is the an easy / quick way to reinsate the service so it loads on startup? Thanks everyone for looking.....if i can get half of these problems solved i will be a very happy chappy Thanks Jid
