Windows XP Classic Install

[knight2000]

I need some help in configuring nlite to install Windows XP with a classic look, including black background. I use OnePiece XP Post-Install Package. I also want the administrator account to be the only account you can log-in on.

The Thing is how ever I configure the nlite variabels, it doesn't end right.

I want a setup with the latest driverpacks (driverpacks.net) and a recent update OnePiece_Windows_XP_Post-SP3_UpdatePack_v4.1.0_ENU.7z.

I got you an exempel configuration for you:

For the accounts, in the unattended dialog, highlight guest and uncheck active.

Classic look is set properly in your ini so don't know why it wouldn't be taking. For black background, import a reg file with these contents using GuiRunOnce and $OEM$ folders.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

; black desktop
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Colors]
"Background"="0 0 0"

EDIT: Instead of messing with reg files and $OEM$ folders for the black background do this...

Under unattended, RunOnce add this command: REG ADD "HKCU\Control Panel\Colors" /v Background /t REG_SZ /d "0 0 0" /f

Check "Classic Theme" in Unattended for Win2K look.

+if XP Home, you have to create a 2nd account.
