Windows welcome screen

[StarWing]

Hello,

I've been working on an unattended dvd since a few days now, and it is beginning to work.

But I'v expiriencing a little problem with 2 things:

1) i've set the resolution to 1280*1024 (and 800*600) but, when loading windows for the first time (before the welcome part), it always says that windows will adjust the resolution to a value. Altough I've setted it in the winnt.sif file. I tried several thing, but none seem to work.

2) it _always_ keep showing the windows welcome screen, and the internet connection screen, altough the parameter UnattendedSwitch is set to "yes" or yes, it doesnt' matter

I tried the setting installdefaultcomponents under networking set to yes, or no. Doesn't seem to help

Normally I test it with VMWare, but installing straight to a HD doesn't help either

Here is a copy of my winnt.sif file:

Does that KeyboardLayout= "Belgisch-Nederlands" work??? Couldn't find that... I'm working with such a number...

Answer to your first question: add this:

[Display]
    XResolution=1280
    YResolution=1024
    BitsPerPel=32
    VRefresh=60
    AutoConfirm=1
    ConfigureAtLogon=1

This should make it work!

that belgisch unattended thing works really well.. I've found it in the reference docs from the deployment tools.

Also, keep in mind that when u're using an EN version of XP it is "belgian-dutch"

First i've been using it, but that didn't work.

As for the

AutoConfirm=1
ConfigureAtLogon=1

I've already tried that, but no-go

I am using only 3 files for the config

1 => winnt.sif (as shown)

2 => oobe thing for adding 2 users

3 => cmdlines.txt triggering a reg file for some tweaks

That's all.. Maybe it has something to do with the svp pack file (or something)

[benners]

UnattendedSwitch="Yes"

should be

UnattendSwitch="yes"

[StarWing]

UnattendedSwitch="Yes"

should be

UnattendSwitch="yes"

**** man, I've been breaking my head on this for 4 days now... I knew it would be something stupid like that..

I will give it a go.

Will try the tips from bashrat again. Hope it works
