despal Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 Hello everybody!I managed to kick every other OOBE step off, except the User creation. However, that assistant that says "I can help you blahblah.." is STILL annoying. How can it be removed? nLite can do that someway I believe...

kwpro Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 I think nLite can do i, im not sure i used microsofts own unattended software to do it for me. I think this is what yoou need in your winnt.sif file:[GuiUnattended] AdminPassword="password" EncryptedAdminPassword=Yes AutoLogon=Yes AutoLogonCount=1 OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=85 OemSkipWelcome=1kenny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cartoonite Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 You should be able to skip it by adding the following to your WINNT.SIF.[GuiUnattended] OEMSkipWelcome=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
despal Posted January 23, 2005 Author Share Posted January 23, 2005 Thanks very much. I had that line over there but for some reason it was switched to 0. Thanks for making me notice this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prathapml Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 A good thumb rule is, if you had a problem with the normal uA install of windows which you weren't able to fix by yourself, then nLite is some distance away for you. Its a good app alright, but what happens is most people blame the problems they had on the nite tool. So if you're likely to have problems, then better not start with it till you're ready (with relevant knowledge). Of course, the *ONLY* downside you could have with using nLite before you're ready, is you might post in the nLite forum with a problem/question that's been answered a hundred times already and get flamed for it. As for what you're asking, reading the guide is really the BEST way to get answers. I'm not sure OEMskipwelcome is a solution, but the below is what works perfectly (you ALSO need the oemskipwelcome to be set):[unattended]UnattendSwitch="yes"Specifies whether Setup skips Windows Welcome or Mini-Setup when preinstalling Windows XP Home Edition or Windows XP Professional using the CD Boot method. Set this to yes to skip the "Setting Up Internet Connection" and "Create User Accounts" screens.link to page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
