qualle Posted April 15, 2004 Posted April 15, 2004 Hi folks, first post here, in english. So please be patient ;-)At my self made unattended installation of Windows XP, the setup is still asking me for "Your display settings may be wrong. Windows XP setup will now configure your display settings to a better value." or something equal (translated from german, of course).So how can i get rid of this?!I got the following: I made a WindowsXP unattended cd with the winnt.sif in the i386 folder. Here is a part of my winnt.sif where the bug my be hidden...[Data] AutoPartition=1 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes" [unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=Yes TargetPath=\WINDOWS Repartition=Yes Filesystem=NTFS WaitForReboot=No DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore OEMPnPDriversPath="drivers\grafik\ati;drivers\grafik\ati\Driver;drivers\grafik\ati\WDM;drivers\grafik\nvidia" [Display] BitsPerPel=16 Xresolution=1024 YResolution=768 Vrefresh=60And another bug is the logon count.I have to type in my password every time.Here is the code:[GuiUnattended] AdminPassword=MY-PASSWORD EncryptedAdminPassword=Yes AutoLogon=Yes AutoLogonCount=4 OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=110 OemSkipWelcome=1And i dont want to create another **** user other then the "administrator" ;PSo, thanks in advance for any suggestions. Qualle.And please excuse my worse english ;-)
Aaron Posted April 15, 2004 Posted April 15, 2004 To fix the logon problem, add UnattendSwitch=Yes to [unattended].Your display problems are because Windows thinks it can't support 1024x768. This is most likely a graphics driver issue.
qualle Posted April 15, 2004 Author Posted April 15, 2004 Thanks for the tip, it worked. But i got another one:The "unattended" setup still asked me for a password before the setup is completely finished(pops up befor my [GuiRunOnce] Command0=%systemdrive%\temp\autorun.batbatch file runs).thanks in advance again,qualle
Alanoll Posted April 15, 2004 Posted April 15, 2004 http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/autologon.htmjust look at the registry entry part and adapt to yours.
Blyster Posted April 15, 2004 Posted April 15, 2004 The problem you are having with having to type the password in everytime is that you are encrypting the administrator password. If you want to login the Administrator automatically 4 times like your file shows, do not encrpyt the admin password. Good luck.
qualle Posted April 16, 2004 Author Posted April 16, 2004 yeah, thanks Blyster, that should do the trick.2 weeks ago i created an w2k unattended installtion without a encrypted password, that worked (do you say 'this worked' or 'that worked' ).
