edmoncu Posted July 17, 2004 Posted July 17, 2004 I am building an unattended XPCD. And whenever I made an installation, i still have to set these settings (pls see attached pic)... I was wondering if there's a registry setting that would enable me to made these preset's already implemented (notably the systen startup options) once I installed from my unattended XPCD.Thanks.NOTE: I've already found the settings under the System Failure registry entries... Its in the [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\CrashControl]
WwTIPPYwW Posted July 17, 2004 Posted July 17, 2004 find where in the registry they are stored and then add it....do a snapshot before and after and compare.If you got the registry settings, just export from a good config, add to cd, then import as part of install.
homiebrah Posted July 17, 2004 Posted July 17, 2004 http://www.winguides.com/registry/category.php?141This has the Crash Controls you can change. Make the change, then export that key to a .reg file using regedit. Import during an install using GUIRunOnce, cmdlines, or RunOnceEx. It's up to you.
edmoncu Posted July 18, 2004 Author Posted July 18, 2004 Thanks guys, but i am actually more concerned on applying some new settings under the System Startup section as I already found out the registry settings that control the behavior of the System Failure section...Note, I am still finding how.
homiebrah Posted July 18, 2004 Posted July 18, 2004 Never mind...If I'm not mistaken, the System Startup options are defined via the boot.ini file hidden in %systemdrive%.
edmoncu Posted July 18, 2004 Author Posted July 18, 2004 its okay, yes, its controlled by boot.ini which is place at the root of the boot partition. i was hoping if its safe to modify it (or possibly?) during an unattended install.
