_chris_ Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 Hi,I'm having trouble setting the "Location" setting in "Regional and Language Options".I've done some digging around on the net and I can't seem to find any information on it.I wish to set all of the regional options to English (Australia) and Australia for the Location; I have entered the following settings in my ristndrd.sif file:[RegionalSettings]InputLocale=0c09:00000409LanguageGroup=1SystemLocale=0c09UserLocale=0c09This results in the correct settings except for Location, which remains on United States.Does anyone know if it is possible to automate the Location setting?thanks for your help in advance.Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oioldman Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 Sorry, chris, but what do you mean byDoes anyone know if it is possible to automate the Location setting?if it is in your .sif file it will be applied when the PC is built.If you mean to add to pre-built machines, could you not apply a domain or group policy to the pc's with the lacation details?hope it helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fencer128 Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 Hi,Try replacing InputLocale=0c09:00000409with InputLocale=0c09:00000c09Good luck,Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_chris_ Posted November 10, 2005 Author Share Posted November 10, 2005 oioldman, nah, we are trying to deploy desktops using RIS with this setting already set.Fencer128, I changed the value as you suggested but still the same result, everything else except for Location is correctly set.

cluberti Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 You could always just replace the "Locale" values in:HKU\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\InternationalandHKCU\Control Panel\Internationalwith the correct values. The change should take place after a reboot, so if you've got a runonce script you could run it there and have the machine reboot to make it work.

Fencer128 Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 (edited) Hi,This is the code I use to set English (UK) for everyone. We also have many IMEs as well as east asian and r-l packs installed, which may explain the extra entries under "LanguageGroup".[RegionalSettings] Language=00000809 LanguageGroup=1,7,8,9,10,11 SystemLocale=00000809 UserLocale=00000809 InputLocale=0809:00000809I note that there are differences between the keys in your code and mine. Maybe you need the "Language" key? I know that you shouldn't need any kind of registry hack to accomplish this - it should be possible from the sif file.Cheers,Andy Edited November 10, 2005 by Fencer128 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oioldman Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 @ _chris_; if trying to set as station is built, it will take from .sifI use settings similar to Fencer128 and works a charmi vaguely recall the ref.chm has a list of all keys used for the regions, so may be worth checking the .sif file is containing the correct number of chars for each request Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fencer128 Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Hi,Have a look at this:http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/referen...xp/xp-lcid.mspx and look for Farsi.You may need to experiment a bit but the information should be correct.Good luck,Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
