Okay I have two issues I am trying to resolve. I looked through Unattended.msfn.org and couldn't find an answer. I searched through this forum and found 33 pages of threads on Unattended and went through most of them, but stopped after page 12 and didn't find anything. I did notice some other ideas for future though I searched through Google as well to no answer that I can see to help me. My first issue is my winnt.sif works to a point. It does the install, my variables do pass through, but I keep getting the Welcome Screen, then the Help Protect Your PC, Internet Options, Who Will Use This Computer, then finally the Thank You screen. I have looked over my winnt.sif file again and again and can't determine what is causing the problem. I think I am missing something really easy and can't see the trees for the forest. Here is my winnt.bat file The other issue really fast is the /makelocalsource switch does not seem to work either. It still wants the CD-ROM after first reboot. My understanding is the /makelocalsource switch should copy all my files from my CD to the local harddrive after it partitions it then it reboots, starts the installation and continues installing the files. It then reboots a third time and comes back with the Welcome Screen, Help Protect Your PC, etc.... And my WINNT.SIF file is here: After I manually go through the Welcome Screen to the Finish Screen (like five screens) it comes up fine (alhough I want it to prompt for user and password not the click this icon to login). The settings I put in my winnt.sif seem to take. For Example: turning off the games, Home page for IE, Protocols, etc. Can anyone help me set this up properly so that it will finish the install from the local drive and two stop asking for Welcome screen on and just reboots to a logon prompt? Thanks in advance.
