That's what I use in a batch file launched by cmdlines.txt : SET USER=Squall net user %USER% "" /add net localgroup administrators "%USER%" /add reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /v "DefaultUserName" /d "%USER%" /f reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /v "DefaultUserPassword" /d "" /f reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /v "AutoAdminLogon" /d "1" /f

rename your wallpaper into "bliss.jpg" then move the file on your desktop and open a dos session : cd desktop makecab bliss.jpg Move bliss.jp_ into your i386 folder

It depends on the components of office you chose to install !

Do you really need these boot tools ? How come your hotfixes are 40mo ? mine are 80mo (all post-SP1 critical updates + DX9b opk)

Or you can just put the biggest software into a seconde CDR in your second cd drive I dont really trust those shrinking programs, and you need to re-do it everytime an update comes up...

oh man that's almost what I am coding online : http://perso.club-internet.fr/aharfi_g/generator.htm Its a unattended batch generator...

what is WPI ? how can i use it ?

Hi Ran, I dont know about OPK, but there's a DOS command to change the drives labels : LABEL C:name where "name" is the new label of the drive c:

/S according to : http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...24&hl=icq+lite# You may need to pskill it because its starts as soon as it is installed.

Do you think I'll be able to integrate SP2 into my Windows XP SP1 install CD ? I have 3 hacked dll (uxtheme, sfc_os and winntdub.dl_) and removed all the folders on the root of the CD except i386.

how can I notice the folders that shrink needs to copy ?

@nuhi >> ok thanx. But I still dont understand why office must be uninstalled. That means, you must run shrink right after installing windows (to be sure it will "shrink" it right), then make your unattend office CD and reinstall everything. Am I right ? Well, I wanted to make a full unattend guide for office 2003 (admin point + splistream + mst + shrink) for newbies in french... I think its too difficult for them now !

Shrink works only on an office-free windows ? Argghh !

after creating the admin installation, you must install the office ressources kit and launch the mst creator. Then go all over the steps and you'll have an mst file which is a "response file" like winnt.sif !

Office 2003 or Office 2002/XP ? Look at MSFN unattended guide, there's a guide to automate the install of office. You can include the serial number, the install directory, the components you want to install, etc...

look at the flag on the left part of his posts ;-) I think "eg" stands for an arabic contry of the gulf (Emirates ???)

I tried on en english version of office 2003 (admin point of course) without any luck. After specifying the exe setup and the mst file, it copies 7.6mb of files and occupies 90% of the CPU ressources. Altought the icon is in the tray, nothing is copied. T_T

Still doesnt work with the french office. I have an error message that says "if you wanna use the command lines, please check blablabla". I guess some of the switches or .exe you use in your program dont have the same name in french... :cry:

of course I read it and when I type setup /a, it doesnt work with this AIO CD....

allright, I have a **** version of office 2003 pro english. But its an "all in one" CD, how can I get an administrative install from this CD ?

Hi everyone, I just finished my website that contains a few articles and guides for Windows XP and Office 2003 (more to come ?) in french language. I wrote one on how to make an unattended CD of Windows XP and most of the informations come from here. Although I didnt copy anything, I think its better to ask you first if its ok (... like I'm not "stealing" anthing). http://squallgreg.fr.st My homepage http://perso.club-internet.fr/aharfi_g/unattend.htm Direct link to the unattend guide

I've tested it on Office 2003 CD1 French professional version without any luck. If I choose to abord office install, it only copies the root files and then just stops. If I choose not to abort, it says "error time out" in a small popup. BTW I just discovered how great is the custom office 2003 install (the setup that creates the mst file), you can also integrate your personal OPS file

it works you're a genius ^_^

I have an error message when I try to splitstream the .msp files to my administrative install of office 2003 (french). In fact, everytime I call "msiexec" it says : paramètres de lignes de commandes incorrects Windows Installer V2.0xxxxx (= command lines switches invalid) I use the following : TITLE Office 2003 Slipstreamer brought to you by www.MSFN.org CLS @echo off ECHO Please wait... FOR %%f IN (*.msp) DO msiexec /p %%f /a D:\Mes Documents\Microsoft\msocd\admin\PRO11.MSI SHORTFILENAMES=TRUE /qb ECHO Slipstreaming Completed! pause EXIT
