where does the password go into?

Won't make a difference. Data burnt to CD stay in their data pits from start to end and never move around, so it has 0% fragmentation.

Is it extractable? I'm guessing this could be an Installshield package Or, try setup.exe /s /v"/qn REBOOT=Suppress"

I think the Internet Explorer 6 Administration Kit will do what you need, creating an *.ics file that will import all your phone numbers, username and passwords, OE email account info etc.

http://unattended.MSFN.org/xp/applicat.../wininstall.htm - /QB will show a basic progress bar in a window /QN will not show anything and installs in the background.

Not bad for my first attempt, need to work on the top text as the bitmap itself is 1024 res, and setup uses 800x600 in Virtual PC, hence the windows xp logo overlaying the text I placed.

yes, copy from CD. there should be an MSI file in one of the folders which you should use the /QB or /QN switch on. Something like NU.MSI or similar.

yep, at the end of the batch file before EXIT, here's a snippet of mine: ECHO. ECHO Restarting the PC in 1 minute... shutdown.exe -r -f -t 60 -c "Windows XP will now restart in 1 minute, this will give enough time for the shortcuts to update and for the shell to fully load before its ready to restart!" ECHO. ECHO Deleting Temp Installation Files... RD /S /Q %systemdrive%\install RD /S /Q %systemdrive%\Drivers ECHO. EXIT Although there probably won't be any point in putting those ECHO messages in, as these commands take effect quickly and you'll only see the messages for a very split-second.

This is only information that's displayed in the System Properties window, it has no relevance to user accounts whatsoever. That's all i can tell you for the time being, I'm not up to speed with cmdlines and user account creation yet.

I honestly can't be bothered reading that.

did you use "yes" or "no"? Some members in here are experimenting with creating a user account in cmdlines.txt so they can bypass the welcome to windows xp screen completely and login with their own account to run the batch. Havne't heard much on that lately though.

you need the hex-edited dxsetup.exe file from the site. The one included in the directx9 redist has the silent install switches disabled.

Is it possible to change the text too? EDIT: I notice I have a WINNTBBU.DLL and a compressed WINNTBBU.DL_ on my CD, which one am I supposed to edit?

Welcome to MSFN

Looks like Symantec don't offer downloadable files for NAV2003 (program updates, not definitions). You can only get them through LiveUpdate.

You have to patch uxtheme.dll when you want to use a visual style that isn't included with Windows XP.

Yeah we think the MSBlaster worm might be to blame for sucking up the bandwidth from MSFN, after all MSFN is hosted on a Windows Server.

I have my eyes set on an Antec TrueBlue 480W PSU. http://www.metku.net/index.html?sect=view&...c_480/index_eng
