Wundagore

I would like to make a new Unattended xp pro setup and now I would like to know what the best way is to minimize the space used by xp and get full performace by using every tweak availeble Should i slipstream xp and service packs manually or use Nlite to delete files enz... I also discoverd the registery tweak program in the sticky, real nice but does anybody have a site to explain all the services? then I want to install programs along with it I hate the whole batch scripting so I wanted to use msi installer packs I remember a program to make the msi packages but it needs registering to actually use it. it was called Wininstall Le I think so if anybody knows a freeware / shareware program just spill it

Wow! real big thx the programs all work just a few minor errors: i added quotes to my mIRC installation but now it asks if the location is a file or map and i has to be a map off course. anyone got an idea here ? big thx on the hint for the reg tweaks got a tweak file of a whopping 28 Kb Putting Windows on a diet B) MHz big thx! now i'm going to drag my a** down to applications for futher help bye all

U did rename the file giving to you by the development tools ? and i remember that there were settings u had to enable before windows setup would read instructions from winnt.sif can't remember them though, maybe somebody else can give you those settings

Here is the situation standard UA dvd and i use batch files to guide the whole thing. the winnt.sif is orderd to copy driver files using the OemPnP ... path but they never seem to work ? my video card is only recognized as a standard adapter instead of nvidia geforce 2 mx 100/200 this also causes to ruin my resolution from 1280-1024 to 800*600 when the computer boots up for the first time need help here in the [GuiRunOnce] section i have put references to my batch files: main_batch.cmd => cleaning up wallpapers and addign reg tweaks + copying certain tools like pskill, .... codec.cmd => got it of this forum recently, just copy's all sorts of codecs for movie playback applications.cmd => installing all of my programs Cleanup.cmd => removing the install dir + removing shortcuts from my desktop. my problem: during the installation ( i use vm ware workstation 5 ) everything goes fine just one time when it stalled at 33 mins ( anyone got a solution for that ? ) but when it starts installing my programs this is what happens: for some reason when the computer finishes i find a map program that is empty and windows gives me an error msg about that. i'm thinking it has something to do with my mirc installation. in the winnt.sif document i request the removal of certain applications such as gaming zone, ... but in the program files map i still find maps with the names: msn gaming zone winnt microsoft frontpage they are all empty but i don't like it and want them removed. Do i just have to use a clean up batch file for this or is there an other way ? ps is it possible to disable services with an UA dvd ? He install nero 6 but he won't register the **** thing He can't find one installer : the installer for O&O defrag professional 8. weird though since i copy the file path from windows explorer so that kinda cuts out typos He won't install winamp: i used a msi packet found on this forum but still he doesn't install anything , i can't even find a trace of winamp in the registry while i do get an echo of installing winamp... The last program he will install is Daemon tools. there are some more programs but they don't seem to activate. my firefox won't install, thunderbird will not be copied for manuel install and the same goes for officen photoshop and dreamweaver i'm including my batch files below so if anyone would be so kind to help me out applications.txt winnt.txt

thx man u helped me find the problem i looked into txtsetup.sif and it turned that belgian dutch didn't exist because it was written in my native language dutch, so i had to input "belgisch-nederlands" in order to make it work. ty for all the help guys bye

it's the keyboardlayout line, as stated above find it weird, i don't really see a mistake in the code right ?

here is the situation: I have just completed my first unattended dvd with the programs, drivers , documents and so and so ... and now it's time for the testing fase i am testing with a dvd+rw and vm ware 5 now when i boot the virtual machine , windows setup starts to load and then i get an error message like: line 17 from winnt.sif is not valid setup cannot continue... i will post my version of winnt.sif below the topic i have traced the problem to the line where my keyboardlayout is declared. KeyBoardLayOut=Belgian Dutch now this doesn't seem to work and i have tried it like this 2 KeyBoardLayOut="Belgian Dutch" that was my first try and at that point it said that the language specified was invalid i think , can't recall it very clearly anyway plz help i'm out of options here Greetz Winnt.sif : ;SetupMgrTag [Data] AutoPartition=0 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes" AutomaticUpdates="Yes" [unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=Yes TargetPath=\WINDOWS UnattendSwitch="Yes" WaitForReboot="No" DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore OemPnPDriversPath="drivers\Nvidia;drivers\VIAChipset\Inf\Winxp;drivers\Printer\win2k_xp;drivers\Keyboard\Win2K_XP;drivers\Webcam\Drivers\WinAll\XPRS" KeyboardLayout=Belgian Dutch AutoActivate = Yes [GuiUnattended] AdminPassword=* EncryptedAdminPassword=NO OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=105 OemSkipWelcome=1 [userData] ProductKey=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx FullName="Wundagore" OrgName="Uplink Corp."
