einniv

Thanks again. That worked for me. Used expand to make nlite.inf. Edited the user name out of the .inf and re compressed with makecab. Worked great.

Thanks a lot! Got it to expand. May be a couple days before I try a new build but that should hopefully do the trick.

Well at least I know I'm not crazy now! I wonder where it stores this info.

Well, OK, it must be getting it from somewhere and that is what I am here to find out. Quick background. I made an unattended install for my son's computer from my XP disc. Lets call him Steve Strong (though that isn't his real name). I integrated SP3 and IE7. It worked great. I lent out some discs I had to a friend which included my xp disc. He managed to lose them all. Luckily I still have the folder where I made my son's disc. I tested a disc made from that folder on Virtual PC. When it installed it asked me to create new users so I created one for myself but I saw that it also automatically set up a user Steve Strong. So, I got rid of that name from the previous ini files. Still a user Steve Strong and it never asks me during install to setup any other users. I went drastic and uninstalled and then reinstalled nlite. I also got rid of any .ini files and any.sif files (there were 2 winnt.sif and text-something-or-other??.sif). Still a user Steve Strong and it still doesn't ask me to setup any new users at install time. I did a windows search for any files containing the words "Steve Strong" and none turn up. So I can't figure out where it is coming from! Any ideas? I'm sure I've just done something stupid but the name isn't showing up anywhere in nlite (at the Users tab) so I don't know where it is coming from.
