Unsure of the switches for you. But i thought that i would mention that you should be able to slipstream those hotfixes into your office installation.

Setupmgr creates a winnt.txt file and a batch file for use on a floppy.

Unsure whether repartition does a quick format. If so, then you would have to set it to no, to enable manual options for choosing method of format.

if exist "%systemdrive%\documents and settings\myname" ren "%systemdrive%\documents and settings\myname" "%systemdrive%\documents and settings\myname-old" net user myname /add net localgroup Administrators myname /add net accounts /maxpwage:unlimited REGEDIT /S autologon.reg :end ExitPerhaps you could try this if required. Normally, if you reinstall over the top of a windows installation, the accounts are kept?

if exist "%systemdrive%\documents and settings\myname" goto end net user myname /add net localgroup Administrators myname /add net accounts /maxpwage:unlimited REGEDIT /S autologon.reg :end Exit If you are using a batch file to create an account that already exists. Why not use if exists? 3 Accounts? if exist "%systemdrive%\documents and settings\myname" goto user2 net user myname /add net localgroup Administrators myname /add net accounts /maxpwage:unlimited REGEDIT /S autologon.reg :user2 if exist "%systemdrive%\documents and settings\myname2" goto user3 net user myname2 /add net localgroup Administrators myname2 /add net accounts /maxpwage:unlimited :user3 if exist "%systemdrive%\documents and settings\myname3" goto end net user myname3 /add net localgroup Administrators myname3 /add net accounts /maxpwage:unlimited :end Exit

@Sanjay "AutoAdminLogon"="1" means without needing to enter password to logon (not related to main administrator account logon).The fix is booting into safe mode and typing control userpasswords2 in start menu -> run. In user accounts window, you can change the autologon setup, which may still be using your old password. My guess is whether "DefaultPassword"="pass" is required in autologon.reg? This may be the fault? It will take alittle testing to checkup on this. B)

Litestep maybe for a shell? Total commander and explorer are 2 different things though. Explorer is your toolbar, windows, etc. Total commander is a windows explorer enhancement.

This could be a limitation of ntfsdos which creates this error. You could try making a bartpe cd, and see if this will do what you want to do.

You can edit the default profile as shown here.

Sysprep is cool! Have done that before. I use autoplay media studio also. It is awesome for menus. Lua scripting in it makes it good. But, as first post at this forum for MachManX, and perhaps. lack of experience in using these other options? Do not know what you are looking for, MachManX?

Only program suitable here, would be autoit3. My cd is fully done with autoit. Not one single command file. Programs all configured. Will work on any machine.Unless you have some programming skills like vbscript or better? You should perhaps do what most others do. Read and follow the MSFN Unattended Windows CD Guide. B)

Nicer posting now jada855. Your themes are not applied until your first logon. So you will get that classic look during runonceex. With AdobeReader, I extracted the files and run the msi directly. You can search the forum for double checking your switches. Take note of the sticky threads and also the application switches forum.

You could check Unattend.txt in I386 directory. Some more info here for unattend W2k.

Welcome. Some tips? 1. Next time you post some code, press code button, insert code, then press code button again to close it. 2. Insert spaces between executables and switches. As with nero entry? 3. Ensure that you have a batch file and a reg file for your logon creation. ( check the unattended guide ). Hope this helps you along.

If you have XP. Go to Help and support centre in start menu, run it. Type "command shell overview" in search. The variables are there to view.

A free standalone uninstall progam that tells you the uninstall strings and whether it can be silently uninstalled. Get it from here

Here is a quote from MS If it helps at all? How about copying and renaming Ntoskrnl.exe to Ntoskrnlmp.exe, and see what that does. If it does not boot then, you may have an error in your Ntoskrnl.exe?

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced] "Start_ShowControlPanel"=dword:00000002 If you look under this key in registry, you will see all the startmenu settings.

Here are some that may help. Installer2Go For simple MSI installer creation. Regmon For monitoring the registry for regtweaks. PSTools Utilities for controling processes etc. Resource Hacker For editing resources. CabPack A gui for making cab archives. WillyPad An editor for inf files etc.

The Unattended CD Guide Windows XP SP2 Deployment Tools Have a look through the unattended cd guide if you have not done so yet. I think, a number of your questions may be answered. Also download the deployment tools. It has a ref.chm file for help and has setupmgr.exe for creating a basic winnt.sif file. btw. I keep the full driver cab. Hope this helps you along.

The editor is not required if you use the Autoit3 installer version. You can right click on a file & choose compile, with the installer version. Editor is good if you wish to continue use with Autoit3. B)

Build 4253, is the plugin build. The program build is 4250. Download it from the first post, in this thread.

@Elgreen Try this instead. [Components] msnexplr=off pinball=off freecell=off hearts=off minesweeper=off solitaire=off spider=off zonegames=off

As Alanoll stated to view: And to unexpand: makecab sysoc.inf sysoc.in_ Hope this answers your question.

The big word in this line is mistake (like by accident)
