I just have two question....

I've created an unattended WinXP with XP2 with updates with automatic creation of user and after that I'm using the WPI....

During the installation it appears a message for the video resolution... can I skip that?

and after that it appers a GUI to configure automatic update (or not right now)...

is there a way to preconfigure these two steps or to skip them?

Thanks in advance

PS. Sorry for my english :P

For the problem of the "Let's spend some minutes configuring your PC"-screen you can add in your winnt.sif (I386 directory) the following line under "[unattended]":

UnattendSwitch = "yes"

The other problem of the resolution-change might be solved by adding the following line under "[Display]":

ConfigureAtLogon = 0

I am not sure of both solutions, i have the same problems and found these solutions on the internet, but i haven't tested yet.

"During the installation it appears a message for the video resolution... can I skip that?"

-> I am not sure which dialog box that is? Exactly what does it say? Sometimes, when the Win32 installation detects an Plug n' Play monitor, it will dispaly a dialog box to point out the correct drivers for the screen @ T-34 minutes into the installation. If u ignore this box it will dissapear by itself. Or provide a driver that is correct to the $OEM$folder structure. As I said I am not sure weather it is that error u r getting? Also, if there is a bad software driver (that doesnt match) u sometimes get a dialog box which instructs u to confirm if u want to keep the current graphic settings, however, that normally comes after the [GuiRunOnce] section.

have u made the video setting in ur .sif / txt file?

e.g

[Display]

BitsPerPel = 16

XResolution = 1024

YResolution = 768

VRefresh = 75

Gimme something more (error msg or stribg in dialog box)... boered, nothing to do! ;)

First of all thank you guys for your help...

I've found out how to skip those two steps

In the winnt.sif I've inserted:

[Data]

AutomaticUpdates = Yes (it skips the screen to configure the automatic updates)

[Display]

BitsPerPel = 32

XResolution = 1024

YResolution = 768

VRefresh = 75

AutoConfirm = 1 (it skips the question to fix the resolution at first boot after the installation)

But I have another problem now!!!!!

It doesn't change the resolution to 1024x768... and I have 640x480!!!!

Any help on that?

Thank you!!!!!

Have u checked that the correct driver is installed once the Win32 setup is done, is working and is in place? Can you manually change the video resolution once the installation is done to the desired res?
