I was thinking of creating a program which contained all registry tweaks, would be a nice interface with checkboxes for the user to select the tweaks and then compile the reg file at the end.
I was wondering if you think this could be useful or not bother, wouldnt want to create a program no one would use. I like to have the opinion of the people I set off
im mike btw the guy who created the original unattended site which I gave to aaron.anyways any ideas etc shot em in here plz.

ye i played with it and managed to rename the process but it is only renamed in taskmanager and I see what you mean
looks like your unable to do what I want under NT

I got it working but both the program and svrany.exe run in the process list under SYSTEM so its pretty pointless
0 -
I tryed using svrany and it didnt seem to work using the NT method, it wouldnt start got half way along and stopped.
Is running an app as a service just like running it normally but it doesnt get shown as a process?

yes there is a way to do it with RegisterServiceProcess API but this only works on 9x as you stated and the following error on NT based: Cant find Dll entry point.
My friend is testing a process scanner to check what programs are running and he said if anything is run it will be picked up, I said if the process is hidden then it wont be found by his scanner which is what im trying to do.
I got some code which will hide the process and rename them to different process names such as explorer etc, I have being trying to change this so it will hide an external exe, Ive attached it if anyone wants a look.
thx for any help

I wondered if there was anyway to create a program that will hide a process, I have an .exe I didnt create so its compiled and I wondered if there was any way to hide the .exe from the process list so it cant be monitored? Anyway to hide a external .exe from process list?
thx for any help

Wondered if anyone had a tweak for reg or anything that would set the start menu to the non-classic style. My cd sets classic theme but I dont want the classic start menu I want the one with the user name at top when opened. thx

Not sure about this but I suppose you can record the updated dll versions and dates from inside the archive and then when you have installed xp with the slipstreamed files search for them and check if they are the updated versions. I suppose this is one way to check if there the updated files or not.

your asking it to go to two places, it is getting confused with "%SystemDrive%
& %SystemRoot% .

To delete items from the startmenu there are two ways one in which to delete a shortcut on its own and the second being a sub folder with shortcuts in it.
Single Shortcut
Example is deleting the Windows Movie Maker shortcut in the start menu
DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Windows Movie Maker.lnk"
Shortcut in Folder (wanting to delete whole folder)
Example is deleting the K-Lite Codec folder from my start menu after I have silently installed it.
RD /S /Q "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\K-Lite Codec Pack"

The default for xp is bliss which is located in
C:\WINDOWS\Web\Wallpaper
along with the other default wallpapers.
You can set a reg key in your unattended so it sets your wallpaper.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
"Wallpaper"="C:\\WINDOWS\\web\\wallpaper\\Bliss.bmp"
"WallpaperStyle"="2"Change the line
"Wallpaper"="C:\\WINDOWS\\web\\wallpaper\\Bliss.bmp"
to the path of your wallpaper
Stretched wallpaper style is
"WallpaperStyle"="2"
Tiled wallpaper style is
"WallpaperStyle"="1"
IF YOU WANT TO SET THIS WALLPAPER ONLY ON YOUR ACCOUNT USE THE KEY "HKEY_CURRENT_USER" OTHERWISE USING "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" WILL SET THE WALLPAPER ON ALL ACCOUNTS
hope this helps
