problems explained on 2nd post

please help me on this guys

my problems are:

1) remove the prompt during instalation called "windows will automaticly adjust your screen resolution"

i have on winnt.sif

[Display]

Xresolution = 640

Yresolution = 480

BitsPerPel = 16

Vrefresh = 60

that should prevent that screen from showing, i guess. Please tell me how to stop that screen from appearing.

2) stop the screen "welcome to microsoft windows" "help protect your pc" "who will use this computer" from appearing.

i have on winnt.sif

[unattended]

UnattendMode = FullUnattended

UnattendSwitch = Yes

OemPreinstall = Yes

OemSkipEula = Yes

[GuiUnattended]

AdminPassword = *

TimeZone = 085

OEMSkipRegional = 1

OemSkipWelcome = 1

please let me know what do i need to do to stop that from appearing.

3) i call a .REG file in winnt.sif:

[setupParams]

UserExecute="%systemdrive%\install\install.cmd"

the batch file gots:

regedit /S tweaks.reg

the problem is that i think that the .REG isn't loaded into windows, cause i got this:

; Change Default Desktop Wallpaper

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\General]

"BackupWallpaper"="%Windir%\\Web\\Wallpaper\\bgn.jpg"

"Wallpaper"="%Windir%\\Web\\Wallpaper\\bgn.jpg"

and it always starts with the default wallpaper, not mine, and the file is on that directory.

i got other tweaks that aren't the way i setup on the REG file, so mi guess is that, somehow, the REG isn't being executed.

i know the batch is being executed, cause i put a PAUSE there for checkpoint, and it appears during setup.

so, how do i know for sure that the REG is being executed?? cause the things i got there aren't on windows after installations, wallpaper, taskbar settings, etc..

I appreciate all help you guys can give me. Thanks in advance.

Have you tried to run your reg tweaks from CmdLine.txt

Here is what mine looks like, this alway works on my computer.

[COMMANDS]"REGEDIT /S 000.reg"

"REGEDIT /S 020.reg"

"REGEDIT /S 040.reg"

"REGEDIT /S 060.reg"

"REGEDIT /S 080.reg"

"Theme.cmd"

"RunOnceEx.cmd"

[cachirro]

yep i did, i got the same result

[cachirro]

i dont know why, but all problems are fixed now, i did nothing to fix them, **** computers

only thing i cant put to work is the wallpaper, it always starts with default wallpaper, i added this settings:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\General]

"BackupWallpaper"="c:\windows\Web\Wallpaper\bgn.jpg"

"Wallpaper"="c:\windows\Web\Wallpaper\bgn.jpg"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]

"ConvertedWallpaper"="c:\windows\Web\Wallpaper\bgn.jpg"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Themes\LastTheme]

"Wallpaper"="c:\windows\Web\Wallpaper\bgn.jpg"

but still the bgn.jpg isn't the wallpaper when windows starts.

can anyone please help me on this?

Thank you.

Have you tried using a modified .THEME file, where you put your wallpaper settings? Works for me...

[cachirro]

what i did was editing the default bliss.bmp and replacing it, coudn't do it in any other way.

Try this instead:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\General]
"BackupWallpaper"="c:\\windows\\Web\\Wallpaper\\bgn.jpg"
"Wallpaper"="c:\\windows\\Web\\Wallpaper\\bgn.jpg"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
"ConvertedWallpaper"="c:\\windows\\Web\\Wallpaper\\bgn.jpg"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Themes\LastTheme]
"Wallpaper"="c:\\windows\\Web\\Wallpaper\\bgn.jpg"

It's the same as you had but with double "\\" for the path...I can't say for sure but sometimes that can be an issue. Good luck!

Oh, and another thing you can add to your winnt.sif to help with the resolution prompt is:

AutoConfirm="1"

You put that under [Display] and it should remove that prompt...you say it isn't an issue anymore, but just in case you wanted to know.
