Update: I got mine working now using the files mpyr posted. Thanks!

I'm actually inerested in how you got this combo of oobeinfo and edits to the winnt.sif working, because i've been attempting to do that too.

I would appreciate seeing your winnt.sif please. Thanks. Could you also post your useraccounts.cmd file?

Full version.

I supressed the restart , but it still doesnt help the problem of renaming the Administration account

Well I got the program to run, and it makes my account, but it doesnt log onto it the first time to not all programs are installed to it. Does anyone know the setting inside of the winhu config file to make it the primary user acct?

This may be our key! Great find. Ill test it tonight and post my results after i get back from school tomorrow.

well if we didnt do the $OEM$ step then we would just be doing an installation from cd. I dont think that setting the preinstall to no will have any effect on the user setup screen though.

oops i copy/pasted wrong, heh. Here's the data section: ;SetupMgrTag [Data] AutoPartition=0 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes" And with the current setup (this and what i posted on first page) it isn't working. It just installs without stopping to have me input anything. My programs all install fine, this is the only problem I am having(I would be adding users through scripts, but that gave me even MORE problems, and this is more flexible too).

Already had that set: [Unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=YES UnattendSwitch="No" TargetPath=\WINDOWS FileSystem=* DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore Win9xUpgrade=No NtUpgrade=No [GuiUnattended] AdminPassword=* EncryptedAdminPassword=NO OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=15 OemSkipWelcome=0 [UserData] ProductKey=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx FullName="Darksith" OrgName="Home" ComputerName=DARKSITH [Display] BitsPerPel=32 Xresolution=1024 YResolution=768 Vrefresh=60 [TapiLocation] CountryCode=1 AreaCode=xxxxx LongDistanceAccess="xxx" [RegionalSettings] LanguageGroup=1 Language=00000409 [Identification] JoinWorkgroup=MSHOME [URL] Home_Page=http://www.google.com [Networking] InstallDefaultComponents=Yes [IEPopupBlocker] BlockPopups=No FilterLevel=Low ShowInformationBar=Yes [WindowsFirewall] Profiles = WindowsFirewall.TurnOffFirewall [WindowsFirewall.TurnOffFirewall] Mode = 0 [GuiRunOnce] %systemdrive%\install\start.cmd

Just ran it again and no luck

Do I want to change my Unattend mode to something other than Fullunattend ? [Unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=YES UnattendSwitch="No" TargetPath=\WINDOWS FileSystem=* DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore Win9xUpgrade=No NtUpgrade=No

I have no idea why, but I have this set to "no" and the setup never comes up during install... On a side note, if i slipstreamed SP2 into this, do i need to install the NET framework or is it included?

I searched and couldnt find which options to enable/disable so I can manually add users during the setup. (basically i dont want it to skip that users setup screen.)

Well i tried using the oobeinfo.ini method, and now it created an admin account and logged in but: 1) Its name is administrator when i told it to be "Drew" 2) My batch file didnt install any of my programs. Every time i take a step forwards i am taking two backwards!
