DarkBringer Posted March 25, 2004 Share Posted March 25, 2004 Do a search for wallpaper and see what comes up. Set the "Search posts from....." to "365 days ago and....".If that's not enough, put your wallpaper in $OEM$\$$\Web\Wallpaper\. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gosh Posted March 25, 2004 Share Posted March 25, 2004 It sounds like what you need to do is set everything up the way you want it, then use custom.theme in your unattended install. It should configure things such as the background colors.Add this to hivexxx.inf:[AddReg]HKCU,"Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\LastTheme","Wallpaper",0x00020000,"%SystemRoot%\web\wallpaper\cool.bmp"where cool.bmp is your wallpaperAdd this to txtsetup.sif[WinntDirectories]321 = Web\Wallpaper[sourceDisksFiles]COOL.BMP = 200,,,,,,,321,0,0Put cool.bmp in the i386 folder. Add cool.bmp to dosnet.inf if you want to instal from the GUI. If you want to use custom.theme add it using winnt.sif or my site gosh.msfnhosting.com/server2003.htm-gosh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dollars22 Posted March 26, 2004 Author Share Posted March 26, 2004 i have themes service disabled. I prefer a classic looking xp. will that still work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayOK Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 This works for me:[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]"Wallpaper"="%systemroot%\\Leo.bmp"[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop]"Wallpaper"="%systemroot%\\Mushroom.bmp"Except when I do that, my wallpaper on 1st boot is the Mushroom (Leo.bmp is ignored). Probably because I add the reg files first and then add the user in cmdlines.txt. It probably copies the HKEY_USERS into CURRENT_USER when the user is created.
