http://www.petri.co.il/disable_uac_in_windows_vista.htm Method 2 should do fine... Make 2 reg files and run one before WPI then reboot. Add the second one (Re-enabling UAC) to WPI's execute after. As for elevated abilities you need to do that on a file for file basis. Study this cmd file here: takeown /f %systemroot%\System32\uxtheme.dll icacls %systemroot%\System32\uxtheme.dll /grant administrators:F ren %systemroot%\System32\uxtheme.dll uxtheme.old xcopy /y %systemroot%\System32\Patches\uxtheme.dll "%systemroot%\System32\" takeown /f %systemroot%\System32\themeui.dll icacls %systemroot%\System32\themeui.dll /grant administrators:F ren %systemroot%\System32\themeui.dll themeui.old xcopy /y %systemroot%\System32\Patches\themeui.dll "%systemroot%\System32\" takeown /f %systemroot%\System32\shsvcs.dll icacls %systemroot%\System32\shsvcs.dll /grant administrators:F ren %systemroot%\System32\shsvcs.dll shsvcs.old xcopy /y %systemroot%\System32\Patches\shsvcs.dll "%systemroot%\System32\" I use this to replace the uxtheme files. You would need to use similiar methods to copy\modify files with WPI (Please keep in mind though I only adopted Vista AFTER SP1 was released) I had beta tested it and tested it for a little while when it was first released and found that I greatly disliked it. Now though it's not so bad.... I am pretty sure there is better ways but I don't know them.

I would like to thank every one that donated... I truly appreciate it. -
Ummm its the very first removal option! Under "Applications" right up there at the top... #1 selection of all of them.

Just the opposite in fact you CAN do that. Look in the nLite addons section for a wide variety of addons. You can also go here -- http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/ to understand how to manually add apps. Plus there is 3rd party tools like WPI (look at my sig) that allow that sort of thing.. http://www.wpiw.net It is actually very easy todo.

Yes video card. I have had the same problem.

Edit here ya go = Whipped up with the Zune theme and proper regfile to set the Pre-logon boxes to Zune http://www.wpiw.net/RunWPI_gospeed.exe

Some of the chit you have going on is commonly brought on by the cough, cough "Keygens". I am willing to bet your whole backup drive has been affected and as soon as any file is activated it fubars the rest of the system. My solution? Goto a friends house and download\make UBCD for Windows http://www.ubcd4win.com/ this makes a live cd with virus scanning capabilities and burning capabilities. Don't forget to bring a "Clean" XP CD with you to make it. Then after scanning ALL drives with a couple or more of the scanners backup the files you HAVE to have to CD and format all drive then continue. While your at it scan any of the program cd's you've burnt that you use to make sure it hasn't attached itself to it. Also take the whole system offline untill you get everything installed, including a SINGLE antivirus even AVG free is good enough as long as your practice good browsing habits, a SINGLE firewall and a app or 2 like spywareblaster. Then jump online and update all of that BEFORE doing anything else. You have a major infection and serious surjery is needed to find and excise the infection. OH and BUY YOUR SOFTWARE...

This is super now I am only like 20 bucks short of my goal... -
Windows Post-Install Wizard (WPI for short) is a hypertext application designed for giving users choice. While Windows XP offers many ways of customizing the setup process out of the box, its major drawback is the lack of being able to select which applications an end user may install. In the past, end users and administrators needed to either download the files manually, or create overly complex scripts that could only be used once. WPI allows you to create one image, which can then be custom configured, and optionally, automated, so that end users can install any applications. WPI is a simple to use automation program for the choice and installation of multiple programs, tweaks and scripts. No longer will you need a dozen CD's or more when doing a fresh Installation. No longer will you need multiple files when you are servicing another PC. With Windows Post-Install Wizard all that you will need is 1 or 2 CD\DVD's to fully install your PC with all of your apps, scripts, registry files or tweaks. Instead of having to re-download those apps like adobe reader, flash or updates to programs you can have them all on one disk. With WPI you can have all of them all on one disk and then have a nice interface for selecting which apps to install and after configured properly WPI will install all of them without any needed input from you. WPI also and is commonly used added to your windows installation disks. This way you can automate the complete process of Windows and program installations. With your typical setup of WPI you have your OS and all of the apps, tweaks and such on one disk. After windows installs, WPI kicks in and you are given a selection of everything you have configured WPI with, then you can select the ones you want or simply let the timer run out and your default apps will install. Highlights of the newest version! v7.1.1 Updates - Released September 12, 2008 * Dynaletik figured out the online update check. I was using google.com for the test, but in Germany, and probably a few other countries, it gets redirected, in his case to google.de. Therefore, the response would not come back properly and would fail. Now I am using www.wpiw.net. * Dynaletik updated German manual some more. * Now using RegEdit32 for 64bit reg edits. * Russian language file and manual written by stasys44. * Spanish language file updated by Alanparson. Notes and Extras Suggested disk folder layout: With the above folder layout all your config entries should read like: ["%wpipath%\Install\Blah.exe" /switch] Here is a small tutorial on how to add an app to WPI! Ok this is a sample (Very simple) configuration for CCleaner (A.K.A Crap Cleaner) This assumes you have all of the WPI files either in the WPI folder at the root of your Windows cd or all of the WPI folders (Common, Graphics, WPIScripts, Tools, Install and Themes) and the file WPI.hta at the root of your cd. Remember this is just the most basic and required entries for a program! #1. Download the app and place it in the WPI\Install Folder. (CCleaner.exe in this example) #2. Run WPI.hta and click on the Config button\Icon area. #3. Choose the button at the very top above the config section that says Add #4. Enter in the name section CCleaner No quotes! Then click on any other section of the config area to activate the rest of the wizard. #5. You will notice the Unique ID section gets automatically configured for you. #6. All apps are selected to be installed by default right from the start so if you dont want it selected by default you must uncheck this box. Also you can decide if you want this app to be a Forced Install or not. #7. Choose a category for your app to be displayed in. If you want the app to be displayed in a category you dont see simply chose other and a box will appear that will allow the entry of you choice. #8. In the Command 1 section click on the little folder icon and browse to the WPI\Install folder and select the CCleaner.exe installer, this will place the appropriate path in the commandline. #9. Add the necessary switches for the program to run silently i.e. %wpipath%\Install\CCleaner.exe /s (This can be easily done for most standard apps by simply clicking on the USSF button on the far right of the commandline.) #10. Select the Save and then the Exit buttons and you have now configured your first app! Afterwards you configure WPI to run with your CD using whichever method you choose. We suggest using one of the pre compiled and nicely provided $oem$ (Source folder if your are using Vista or Server 2008) folders that can be found in the downloads section. Then you can use an app like nLite, vLite, CDImageGUI or the Makeiso* program included in the tools folder to make your CD w\WPI bootable again. * MakeIso.exe = Adds make bootable .iso to the right click menu of folders. It is a silent installer so DO NOT click on it 50x a simple double click is all that is need to install it. It can be uninstalled from the add\remove programs menu! Just go to the source folder (The one that contains I386 and WPI) and right click then select Make Bootable ISO... _____________________________________________________________________ I have seperated the tools out from the main archive.

No your doing it right as soon as i get home I will compile that run WPI for you! I am like 90% sure it will work right. Be home in like half an hour or less. edit you should plug the drive in after the parttioning proccess so that it is set to e: instead of d: Failing anything else we can always mod the wpi .js files to only look for wpi.hta... I do appreciate the extra testing.

VLite - Why do I need 1.3GB AIK?!
Kelsenellenelvian replied to clevermax's topic in Unattended Windows Vista/Server 2008
It is necessary because MS gets really P*SSED when they have proprietary files being randomly distributed. So in an effort to not have MS on his but nuhi decided (and wisely so) that he must remove the file. Thus if you are really dedicated to using vLite and customizing the Vista DVD then you must install waik. You can always uninstall it afterwords. Plus there is a very easy solution if you care to read a few posts in this forum section relating to the exact same thing... -
HOLY CHIT!!! You really have something bogging you down... XP here takes between 26-40 secs to boot. (Depending on the processes running yannow like updates, things like that) Dell c840 P.O.S. Nearly worn out old bugger too.
