IMHO InstallWatch Pro = FREE NO Brag just facts It exports to .reg files that are fully functional and look like the real thing not that other crap. Tracks all Hives individually, will export the same way Also it will track file changes, regsnap nope, regshot nope or any other that I know of. I've even seen it get Key's that are not visible. yep they exist I've tried them all except as below swampy Never seen that Prism Deploy before so i'm off to test it, is it FREE?? Hope so cause above is. That rates a "0" "We'll email you the serial number when you install the evaluation of Prism Deploy"

I am looking for BETA tester's for my application. maxXPsoft XP Tweaking System for Home or Pro? This is a pretty complete/immense Reg tweaking program. Yes it's done in Visual Basic but so what, It work's. I would compare it to the level of TweakXP as I've used it also in the past, just not lately. For the Unattender's, you apply a tweak but did it set? This show's it and it will also remove it if needed. A simple On Off switch if you need be. maxXPsoft XP Home/Pro tweaking system Get the most of your XP experience by fixing some of the cosmetic appearances, slowness, security problems and speed problems. Access system restore properties and set them to a better configuration. Configure the services that run in the background hogging your resources and slowing you up. Fix some of the problems encountered by some users. Tools page for Links to things that are somewhat hidden that some may want to change about their system. I thought that may be better so users can dig around and see all the features obscured by M.S. Designed specifically for XP.

k thanks MHz Just not sure about changing it because of Mikey's activation thing's, I also don't want to get all setup and do the activation and it tell's me I have to call Mikey, that would suck since i own this CD and you only get maybe 8 time's to call before they bandit you I read. Usually tacktech has been right but I don't know for sure. Hope so, I parsed all them labels and set them up in an Labels.ini I use in my own Unattended program.

Known SP2 CD Labels http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=342 I don't know could be wrong.

I don't see it at all Here's what I have [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center] "FirstRunDisabled"=dword:00000001 "AntiVirusDisableNotify"=dword:00000001 "FirewallDisableNotify"=dword:00000001 "UpdatesDisableNotify"=dword:00000001 "AntiVirusOverride"=dword:00000001 "FirewallOverride"=dword:00000000

There is however a drawback, this only work's like once then system create's it again. You edit the registry permission's. Wanted to get this here before someone else say's it don't work....So I have this saved to my drive and no idea where it came from. NOTICE: You can LOCK yourself out of thing's editing permission's, you're on your own. I know what I'm doing or either I think I do.

My ? is after slipping SP2 should you change the Volume label to indicate that? Would there be problem's with activation or anything anyone know's of? WXPOEM_EN becomes VRMPOEM_EN I'm not using nLite

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MenuOrder Delete Start Menu or Start Menu2 subkey's depending on which you use Can also delete Favorites there if you want that auto Once you reboot it start's doing it. http://www.winguides.com/registry/category.php/16/

hehe I had to do the same thing. Just move it up a little to make it work right, that's strange and there is no explanation. Didn't know you had other stuff in there.

k but you said (I did this before SP2). so misunderstanding I would go ask this question in nLIte forum and post link here, he can only improve or correct thing's he know's. As far as the [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services set them back to a 2 or a 3 and see if that help's. I don't know exactly what nLite remove's for each one and whether something happened during removal so no telling what happened. I don't see the obvious thing's that would cause this like Service's: Window's Installer

Sorry, I copied that out of my UnattendXP program and it add's it to RunoncEX automatically and it turn's out right. iREX is just a value that auto assign's the number for each thing I add and increment's for next thing. Here's the actual in RunoncEX REM Cleaning Up REG ADD %KEY%\1020 /VE /D "Cleaning Up and Rebooting" /f REG ADD %KEY%\1020 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\Install\cleanup.cmd" /f

anza your command is correct for shutdown you are calling Cleanup.cmd from runoncEX? mine at end of RunoncEX is REG ADD %KEY%\" & iREX & " /V 1 /D ""%systemdrive%\Install\cleanup.cmd"" /f yours may differ a little cause that's my program add's value's

lol found that source a long time ago and never compiled it May compile on my own cause i do see the problem's it does.

I hate to confuse you but it would be simpler if you just copied OfficeXP folder to the install folder and make it short like this REG ADD %KEY%\iAdd /V Inum /D "%systemdrive%\Install\Office\setup.exe TRANSFORMS=\"%systemdrive%\Install\Office\office.mst\" /qn" /f Forget the Applicatons folder thing cause it's unnecessary All that doies is tell it to look on %systemdrive% for the Install folder and do it's thing.

Use UnattendSwitch only when you perform an unattended Setup with Winnt.exe, Winnt.sif, and the CD boot method.

Couple other things missing this is a Generic Winnt.sif that work's ;SetupMgrTag [Data] AutoPartition=1 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes" [Unattended] AutoActivate="no" CrashDumpSetting="0" DisableDynamicUpdates=Yes DriverSigningPolicy="Ignore" FileSystem=NTFS Hibernation=0 UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=No Repartition=Yes TargetPath=\WINDOWS UnattendSwitch="yes" [GuiUnattended] AdminPassword=* EncryptedAdminPassword=NO OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=20 OemSkipWelcome=1 [UserData] ProductKey=xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx FullName="User" OrgName="MyOwn" ComputerName=* [TapiLocation] Dialing=Tone AreaCode=xxx [Branding] BrandIEUsingUnattended=Yes [Proxy] Proxy_Enable=0 Use_Same_Proxy=1 [Identification] JoinWorkgroup=WORKGROUP [Networking] InstallDefaultComponents=Yes

You're also missing [unattended] UnattendSwitch=Yes

No if you slipping SP2 you need ProductKey looking

Wait you have ProductKey Userdata usually looks like this [userData] ProductKey=xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx FullName="Thatsme" OrgName="MyOrg" ComputerName=54HtsTy

Notice in [userData] ProductID renamed ProductKey with SP1 CD or later otherwise use ProductID

Uh yeah For one you don't need SP1 if you slip SP2 ok, SP2 has all the stuff Don't nlIte work on SP2? if so wipe totatally clean then slip SP2 and try again.

Nope have to do the Fdisk thing first with a 98 or ME floppy. and on XP why? I have a floppy drive method here if you want http://www.maxxpsoft.com/xpinstall.php?

ahhh ok Funny what we get used to and stick by Formatting over just don't seem right for some reason on these large disk's. Guess we used to the old method's, Fdisk day's.

Well my apology to you Most my remark's were at Prath cause me and him been around awhile. I never saw that * thing and was unbelieving. I still choose to delete though. That's just a matter of personal preference cause i want it clean, I also don't want to delete or format the wrong thing. I say the system does the partitioniong because I don't actually choose the screen where you go in and type out the size. So in reality to me it does it on it's own, it impressed me the first time it ran in XP and I said what?, surely it didn't do that in that short time. They've come a long way. Still my translation of Ne nazivaj nikoga glupim is rather strange.

Disregard
