1. Create your own theme. Set everything like you want it to and save theme as.. 2. Make sure the right files gets copied to your hardrive (theme file, visual style, wallpaper) 3. in your answerfile winnt.sif goes the following lines: [shell] CustomDefaultThemeFile ="%WinDir%\Resources\Themes\MY CUSTOM THEME.theme"

use my CDShell tutorial... you can find it somewhere around here http://www.msfn.org/board/Tutorial-Graphic...tml#entry743573

Well, just for those who are interested, about the state of this project: the client code has been trashed and will be build again from 0. How long this will take? well pretty long, it's a non-high priority project of ours.

First post updated with new links.

EDIT: the english files got deleted from the server :S - fixing asap

Siginet, Thanks for all your effort in this. I know the hard work it took to create these things HJW

The unattended world is not blessed with (many) x64 driverpacks. And if there are any they surely are outdated so I guess you need to make your own. Not saying this can't be done, it's relative easy to do. I advise you to visit the forums @ www.driverpacks.net. I am sure you can find more information there and they are willing to answer your question too HJW

Links are fully working here (firefox) http://vistapacks.siginetsoftware.com/files/X64-PostSP2/ SelfExtractingInstallers , just run the file and the rest will be done automatically.

Updated DirectX

Try my installer Contain Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0SP1x64, 3.0SP1x64 and 3.5x64. Inspired by instructions posted on Aaron Stebner's blog and some installers made by Rogue Spear. Installer size: 54.5 MB Rar password: netfx35 Rar hashes: CRC32: E385984A MD5: 2215227F7867B26CDE37D3B4940CB0A7 SHA-1: 751C657DDEA8826A93323395A527DA496BF43675 Too bad this one is not svcpack compitable..

read brother, it says: netfx35

Thanks, Your question; very old computers that don't support VGAmode by cdshell will receive an error. I assume you guys are running 'modern' machines nowadays . HJW

Hi Folks, To share some of my knowledge concerning unattended projects I decided to release some tutorials. This is the first one have fun reading, hopefully you can learn something from it Tutorial and example config file attached to this post use 7zip to open archive. download v1.0 HJW

Use this tool: ResHacker to edit files, exe,dll whatever. The information you are looking for is (i think) stored in either winnt.exe or winnt32.exe / or setup.exe Just look through all of them with resourcehacker

You will need to translate every line I advise you to copy images from this winntbbu.dll to your dutch winntbbu.dll HJW

I would be interested in both XP and Vista running from one USBflashdrive. Since I am going to buy a fast 8GB flashdrive soon I was hoping to put my DVDrw in trash and look forward to fast installations

Hi BabisSougias, You can find it here HJW

Hi, First of all I am glad this subject has its own section. Though I think we should include Vista from usb here too. Currently I am using an 3rd party program to format my usbdevice as vistaboot disk and I just replace boot.wim and add install.wim: done. Ofcourse there is some other way to do it manually with some smaller tool or cmd, I dont know of yet. Therefore I started this topic to discuss how to set up your usb device for vista-installation. HJW

Zorphnog thanks for your piece of code This will make my WPItheme look good at any screen. HJW

I just shared my resources in the special Members section at RyanVMs Forums sign up 2 view/download http://www.ryanvm.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3583

Hi all, I created the following code in my wpi.html file. Could someone re-write it better? Not all screen resolutions are included. And a 'backup' wallpaper would be nice too... Main reason for this. Wallpapers get out of proportion and if upscaled you have often granular fonts, ugly to read..
