Regedit /s RAMDriv.reg regsvr32 /s %SystemRoot%\System32\netcfgx.dll factory -minint netcfg -v -winpe net start dhcp net start nla I have the RAMDrive, but got this message while trying to connect to network... "Your system is low on virtual memory. To ensure that Windows runs properly, increase the size of your virtual memory paging file. For more information, see Help." How can I fix this??

Hi! I know that! Thanks a lot for trying! What I want is to have a startnet.cmd that install and start the RAMDrive... Thanks! ShrimpyOne

Hi! I need to use one of those drivers to install a RAMDrive in my WinPE 1.6 based on Win2K3... -RAMDISK Sample provided by Microsoft site ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q257405/ ) -RAMDISK driver from Win2K3 installation files ( I386\RAMDISK.IN_ and RAMDISK.SY_ ) I would like to install it without applying registry directly into setupreg.hiv before booting WinPE... Is it possible? Can you provide a clear method to do that? Thanks! ShrimpyOne P.S.: I'm really cheap and I don't want to pay for a RAMDISK Driver to be legit, so use the free drivers that I've handy...

Hi! I don't use Nlite I don't want to use third party software, even autoit... I want to do it the way it is supposed to be done.. There must be a way to do it, to disable this warning... even if I added the -quiet swith to sysprep.exe it still brings thos **** popups! Thanks! ShrimpyOne

Hi! I do a SysPrep on a machine and integrate some Mass Storage drivers in it... For some drivers, I get a warning titled "Hardware Installation", I'm tired and I want to get rid of them... I've tried 2 things... First, I specified this value in Sysprep.inf file.... [unattended] OEMPnPSigningPolicy=ignore Second, I changed the computer "Driver Signing Options" to Ignore. I keep getting those **** warnings. I did a little script with AutoIt (www.hiddensoft.com) to answer those popups, but I can't use it anymore, so I need a "legit" way to do it... Thanks for your help! ShrimpyOne

Hi! My problem was that DomainAdmin key was written DomainAdminUser... Oh my god, I work too much, now I can't even read what I write... I was hoping someone would have noticed that before me... Thanks anyway! ShrimpyOne

Hi! I did a Unattended Windows CD to install computers... Everything is working fine exept that it doesn't join the domain even if I specified it in Unattend file!!! When the computer has just finish installing, the computer is a member of the workgroup "WORKGROUP" and not my domain! What is wrong? Thanks!

Hi! Thanks! Now I understand, you know how to use the forum but you don't know anything about Windows don't you... ShrimpyOne

Hi! Thanks for the info! Now who can define the Bit Array??? Each bit must ahave a meaning... Please help me find this...! Thanks! ShrimpBoy

Press Any Key, What are you talking about??? You were fellin' lonely and want to talk? Try IRC instead of sendin' s*** to my post buddy! I want an answer, not this kind of joke! I would like to take the time to bring to your attention that I know how to manually do this setting... It may be written newbie right under my name, but you seems more like a newbie to me! Thanks! ShrimpyOne

Hi! I want to change my registry to make every user's Windows Explorer to show files and folders as a list instead of icons... I've looked in TweakUI, but this setting isn't available... I've even bought Microsoft Press - Microsoft Windows XP Registry Guide, but didn't find any answer... Is there any place to find this kind of information? Thanks! ShrimpyOne

Hi! And you got 3 stars..?!?! I deserve maybe 10 stars so... Registry keys for autologon and also force a domain name... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315231 Or http://www.winguides.com/registry/display.php/13/ Have a nice day! ShrimpyOne

Ok! Let's talk about it... I am on an active directory, and when I create a new computer with a syspreped disk image, after the sysprep process (hardware detect, join domain), the computer run something (from section [GuiRunOnce] of sysprep.inf) as administrator... My problem was that the admin guy had force a registry to write the domain name as the default domain name to prevent error from dummy people... So at the computer first boot, it applies Group Policies, so it change the default domain name for the computer name to the domain name and the computer cannot log on automatically with the credential supplied and failed... Have a nice understanding... ShrimpyOne

Hi! It works right now! **** GPO that forces domain name! Thanks to me! ShrimpyOne

Hi! I did a disk image like I did many times before, but this one is different... It work as well as needed in the sysprep part, it discovers the hardware and add the computer to the domain... Then when it boot for the first time, it is supposed to boot on the local computer with the administrator account... but, for an unknown reason, it try to boot with the administrator user on the domain instead of the local computer... I opened my disk image using Ghost explorer and grab the software registry hive, load it on my windows XP and check the winlogon keys... Nothing has been set like defaultdomain or autoadminlogon, so I wonder where it takes the domain name? How can I solve this since all my automated process is stoped by this required human intervention??? Thanks! ShrimpyOne
