Looks like I may have found what I was doing wrong, I didn't have 'REGEDIT4' as the first line of my .reg file, so the entries in the registry didn't get loaded. I haven't tried a fresh install yet (waiting on the CD burn) - but it looks like this might fix part of the problems I'm seeing.

Hello All, I've been reading through the site and forums the past few days attempting to create an unattended install CD for XP which results in the interfaces being defaulted to the 'Classic' mode with regards to the logon screen. (The Win2000/NT4 Ctrl-Alt-Del logon screen) Despite performing some registry edits from the cmdlines.txt file during the installation, I still am not seeing the classic welcom window - but the XP screen instead. When I goto the 'Control Panel'->Users screen 'Fast User Switching and 'Welcome' are still selected. Am I doing this in the wrong place? Should I execute a registry update on login? Do I need to do this for each account? Currently my registry update contains the following (and is run from cmdlines.txt) ;Disable Welcome Screen and uses Classic Logon [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] "LogonType"=dword:00000000 "AllowMultipleTSSessions"=dword:00000000 "DisableCAD"=dword:00000000 ;Show Administrator on the Welcome Screen ;[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList] "Administrator"=dword:00000001 ;Disables Windows Tour bubble popup [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Tour] "RunCount"=dword:00000000 ;Disable Automatic Restart in the event of a BSOD [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\CrashControl] "AutoReboot"=dword:00000000 ;Disable Fast User Switching Service [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\FastUserSwitchingCompatibility] "Start"=dword:00000004 ;Show Windows classic folders [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VisualEffects\WebView] "DefaultValue"=dword:00000000 ; Disable System Restore [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\srservice] "Start"=dword:00000004 ;Disable the Desktop Cleanup Wizard [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\CleanupWiz] "NoRun"=dword:00000001 ; Disable StickyKeys shortcut [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Accessibility\StickyKeys] "Flags"="506" ; Disable Filterkeys shortcut [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Accessibility\Keyboard Response] "Flags"="122" ; Disable ToggleKeys shortcut [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Accessibility\ToggleKeys] "Flags"="58" ;Determines whether the Welcome to Windows splash screen, Welcome.exe, ;appears the next time the user logs on.
