http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...;displaylang=en Just want to contribute my bit.

I only need to remove languages, if I ever need to. It's more for the unattend part, the autologon, custom pc naming, region pre-selected and the likes. I used nLite before, but not vLite. DISM and WIM are still new to me.

Thank you all, guys.

I want my RunOnceEx to check for the existence of application directory on my F Drive and to assign it to PP rather than to use the app dircectory on C drive. What I want is something like: cmdow @ /HID @Echo Off IF EXIST F:\WINXPHOME\$OEM$\$1\Install\Apps\RunOncEx2.cmd SET PP=F:\WINXPHOME\$OEM$\$1\Install\Apps\ ELSE SET PP=SET PP=%SystemDrive%\Install\Apps\ SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx. It does not work. Can someone help with the language part?

AgiHammerklau, Did you do anything to your DCOM?

Does anyone know Flashget need any component? It does not seem to work with Firefox even with the flashgot addon.

Ricktendo64, Thank you for your reply. With your links, now I know where to move on to.

I have been using your program to create addons successfully. Very easy to use. I am wondering whether it can make addons of inf files created by reg2inf converter. I am totally new in this area; I mean the inf file has no switches, exe or cmd files. Can it be done? How?

I got the same problem. Just don't know the cause. Hoping for answers. When I try to load the Windows XP theme or my customised theme, I got "the theme could not load. Unspecified error". Neither can I run "sfc /scannow"

http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showforum=89 should bring you up to speed.

Computer name is set in the Network ID tab. I don't suppose changing admininstrator to user name has anything to do with computer name.

Probably because my source is a recovery cd, I got the message "What's your Computer's name?" at T-33 and although the space is filled with the name, I need to hit the "Enter" key, making it less unattended. Can nuhi look into it? Still v1.2 is a big improvement for me. With previous versions, I could not get autologon even with Cancerface's Createuser.

Any one know of silent switch for InstallRite itself?

BUMP!

Somehow, unattended user creation creates a conflict with Network Automation's Automate 6.1. It cannot access its folder in Docs & Settings due to permissions. To get round this problem for the time being, I have to add user the old fashion way after the installation welcome screen. Other than this, all others are unattended. Also, what do I do with the administrator name field in nlite's Options page? Thanks, Thomas

I spoke too soon. It still default logon to 'Owner'. regdebug.txt

Djé, It autologoned to 'Tester'! For good measure, I am still attaching the regdebug.txt. regdebug.txt Also, I ran with the following in case you need them: In Winnt.sif ------------- [GuiUnattended] AdminPassword=* EncryptedAdminPassword=NO OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=215 OemSkipWelcome=1 AutoLogonAccountCreation = Yes AutoLogon=Yes AutoLogonCount="1" Nlite -> Unattended -> Administrator: ------------------------------------------- Blank Password - checked AutoLogOn - Enabled No password and Logon Count greyed out. AdminUser.cmd ------------------ REG add "%KEY%" /v "DefaultUserName" /d "%AdminUser%" /f REG add "%KEY%" /v "DefaultPassword" /d "%AdminPass%" /f REG add "%KEY%" /v "AltDefaultDomainName" /d "CAROL" /f REG add "%KEY%" /v "AltDefaultUserName" /d "%AdminUser%" /f REG add "%KEY%" /v "AutoAdminLogon" /d "1" /f What's next?

Djé, 1) I verify that there is no discrepancy. I also noted your French spelling for administrator and changed accordingly. 2) I will be running the setup thru VMWare and will reply in about 1-1/2 hrs time. Thomas

Djé, I apologise if I have taken too long to reply. I have trimmed down my original post. Please take a look at the debug report.regdebug.txt I also tried two suggestions mentioned in threads on autologon issues namely changing 'autologon' in winnt.sif to 'no' and changing 'altdefaultdomainName' to same as 'defaultdomainName'. Neither worked. I also set 'altdefaultuserName' to having the same name as 'defaultUserName' and it did not work. What I mean by no working is that the system boot up to 'USER' and some apps if not installed to 'All Users' are installed to 'USER'. If I want to go to my profile 'Thomas', I have to log out of 'USER' first. Toward the end of the unattended setup, I saw a momentary flash saying autologon on could not be done.

Djé, After spending one full day of testing, I realised that my 'Reg' does not seem to be adding registry entries. "regsvr32 /u /s %windir%\srchasst\srchui.dll" in my [GuiRunOnce] of WINNT.SIF did not remove the search companion. The dog is still wagging its tail. DefaultUser is still 'Owner' and although I made an entry to change AltDefaultUser to 'Thomas', it still shows 'Owner'. If 'Reg' is not working, how to bring it back?

I can see my User Account name created in User Accounts of the Control Panel but in the folder 'Documents and Settings' I only have Admininstrator and Owner, not my profile. I was trying to create my profile in the Docs & Settings. Pls take a look at my code. CMDLINES.TXT ----------------- [COMMANDS] ".\useraccounts.cmd" ".\RunOncEx.cmd" With or without '.\' before useraccounts did not make any difference from my trial and error.
