Windows 7 Audit problem


Recommended Posts

Hi.

EDIT: I have tried this on my spare computer and it is not detecting the AutoUnattended.xml file on the dvd. I have removed the following line from the .xml file.

cataloge:d:/source/install_Windows 7 ULTIMATE.clg"

I have created and AutoUnattended.xml file listed below and created an ISO to test on VMWare. When the installation has finished and it boots up for the first time, i am asked to enter an Admin User name and Password even though i have'nt created one.

Below is the .XML file.

Also, what does this line mean & do?

"catalog:d:/sources/install_Windows 7 ULTIMATE.clg"

Is the 'd' the drive location for the install.wim file? If so, what if your dvd-rom drive is E: or F:?

Is the 'd' the drive location for the install.wim file? If so, what if your dvd-rom drive is E: or F:?

:rolleyes:

d: is the location where you have created your Autounattend.xml file using: install_Windows 7 ULTIMATE.clg with WSIM!

Example mine on C:\ drive, using install.wim image:

<cpi:offlineImage cpi:source="wim:c:/Win7_SP1/sources/install.wim#Windows 7 ULTIMATE" xmlns:cpi="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:cpi" />

You can remove this last line if you want! But the full line!

Right, Setup doesn't do anything with the line specifying the catalog location. In fact, almost all of my unattends have the Vista catalog in them. :whistle:

Take this out of your XML:

        <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="[url="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State"]http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State[/url]" xmlns:xsi="[url="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"]http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance[/url]">
<OOBE>
<HideEULAPage>true</HideEULAPage>
<ProtectYourPC>3</ProtectYourPC>
</OOBE>
</component>

Since you are booting into Audit Mode, you aren't going through OOBE pass to process those commands, so it is useless for it so be in there.

you don't have <UserAccounts> in xml

Since the XML is set to boot into Audit, having UserAccounts in the OOBE pass wouldn't get processed either.

Hi all.

Thank you for your replies. I have done it a different way with not getting the AutoUnattended.xml to work. What i did was to press Ctrl+shift+F3 on the screen that prompts for a user name which rebooted the pc and put me into Audit mode which worked great.

Now, i have done everything that i wanted and am ready to sysprep it and make an install.wim image of my custome windows. What i need to do first though is to use copyprofile=true in an unattended.xml file to copy the profile over to the default profile. Has anyone got an .xml file that i can use for this please as i don't know if i need anything else in the .xml file.

Many thanks

Worf.
