I bet you have to change the computer name to something

besides Administrator or any other account on your

machine.

this what I have changed in the winnt.sif:

[userData]

ProductID=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx

FullName="USER"

OrgName="Home"

ComputerName=prof

I would suggest that when you get to this point manually type the password in and see if same thing happens.

Else, try and use a word like, "password" rather than numbers as your password for the admin user as all seems to look ok.

Reading tis url http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/autologon.htm I notice you don't have the line to AutoLogon set, add this and see how you get on.

Same problem here, btw, in the last try in my winnt.sif there was

[GuiUnattended]EncryptedAdminPassword = No

AdminPassword = "password"

ProfilesDir = "\Profiles"

AutoLogon = Yes

TimeZone = 110

OEMSkipRegional = 1

OemSkipWelcome = 1

...and after login manually with Administrator:password it has given me an error about homedir of Administrator...in \Profiles\Administrator neither Start Menu or Desktop dir were present...

I made a few comments in your post. I am also including my winnt.sif and useraccounts.cmd file. This works great for me.

My useraccounts.cmd file

net user Tracy passwordgoeshere /add

net localgroup Administrators Tracy /add

net accounts /maxpwage:unlimited

REGEDIT /S autologon.reg

EXIT

My winnt.sif file:

;SetupMgrTag

[Data]

AutoPartition=0

MsDosInitiated="0"

UnattendedInstall="Yes"

[unattended]

UnattendMode=FullUnattended

OemSkipEula=Yes

OemPreinstall=Yes

TargetPath=\WINDOWS

FileSystem=*

UnattendSwitch="yes"

WaitForReboot="No"

DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore

[GuiUnattended]

AdminPassword=use a password here

EncryptedAdminPassword=No

OEMSkipRegional=1

TimeZone=35

OemSkipWelcome=1

[userData]

ProductKey=xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx

FullName="------"

OrgName="Personal"

ComputerName=Home

[Display]

BitsPerPel=32

Xresolution=1024

YResolution=768

Vrefresh=60

[identification]

JoinWorkgroup=MSHOME

[Networking]

InstallDefaultComponents=Yes

[branding]

BrandIEUsingUnattended=Yes

Home_Page=http://www.google.com

Don't know if that will help but that is what I use and it works every time.

Firstly, I think "useraccounts.cmd" should be before "regedit /s settings.reg" in the cmdlines.txt

Secondly, you cannot use 'Administrator' as the 'Computer Name'.

Finally, let me ask you something, are you trying this in VMWare or are you having this problem with a real installation? The reason I ask this is, that I was getting the same message when I was trying my CD in VMWare, but when I tried a real installation with a real CD, everything went just fine.
