Well.. two ways to unnattened isntall.. Either use the MSI installer from MS with unattended switch.

Or use this:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Approved]
"{709C6E11-538F-4759-86AC-6ACB302AA0DE}"="Desktop Manager"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SharedDlls]
"C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\msvdm.dll"=dword:00000002
"C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\vdm.chm"=dword:00000002

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{709C6E11-538F-4759-86AC-6ACB302AA0DE}]
@="Desktop Manager"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{709C6E11-538F-4759-86AC-6ACB302AA0DE}\Implemented Categories]
@=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{709C6E11-538F-4759-86AC-6ACB302AA0DE}\Implemented Categories\{00021492-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}]
@=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{709C6E11-538F-4759-86AC-6ACB302AA0DE}\InProcServer32]
"ThreadingModel"="Apartment"
@="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\msvdm.dll"

And get the msvdm.dll and vdm.chm files to system32 by some other means.

Note, the registry entries above are only for installing it. To get it to show up automatically you will have to capture the same registry information related to turning on the the explore (not internet exlorer) status bar.

how many times must I say this (though you probally wouldn't have known). Every toolbar location and stats are saved in the SAME place as how you would activate the Quicklaunch bar. If you want the click launch bar, activate it, and activate the virtualmachine one. Export the key ToolBarXP (just do a search in RegEdit) and export that key, and reimport during installation.
