pkx Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 I'm in the process of building my second unattended windows install. On the first one I did a year ago, the system automatically logged in for the first time as the top user after the OOBE asks for a list of users.This is the desired result.On my latest build, after the OOBE asks for a list of users, I just get the classic login screen. How do I make it automatically login as the first user specified once?Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkx Posted January 11, 2006 Author Share Posted January 11, 2006 Sorry for the bump, but does anyone have any ideas? I've been fighting with this for days .If I set AutoLogon=Yes, then the OOBE user screen doesn't even come up and the machine automatically logs in as the administrator acct... even if it does not have a blank password.How do I get it to automatically log on as the first user I specify during OOBE?Thanks!

Lazy8 Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Try setting AutoLogon to "No", and using one of these methods to designate the user you wish to log on.http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/view/web/27/FullUnattend mode will halt at the MiniSetup screen, and prompt you for a username. If you wish to bypass this, try DefaultHide instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't use autologon in the registry because I don't know the username that the person will type in at the OOBE screen... and I don't want to specify the username in the OOBEINFO.INI because I want the user to be able to choose it.Here is the beginning of my WINNT.SIF:[Data]Autopartition = 0MsDosInitiated = 0UnattendedInstall = Yes[Unattended]UnattendMode = DefaultHideUnattendSwitch = NoOemPreinstall = YesOemSkipEula = YesFileSystem = *WaitForReboot = NoNoWaitAfterTextMode = 1NoWaitAfterGUIMode = 1DriverSigningPolicy = IgnoreNonDriverSigningPolicy = Ignore[SystemRestore][GuiUnattended]EncryptedAdminPassword = NoAdminPassword = L0caLAdm1nTimeZone = 04OEMSkipRegional = 1OemSkipWelcome = 1Any other ideas?

fly Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 (edited) Would turning off the classic login screen off help, instead using the welcome screen?edit: nevermind, i dont think that would help at all. Don't mind me. Edited January 12, 2006 by fly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkx Posted January 13, 2006 Author Share Posted January 13, 2006 Figured it out!!When I did my previous one by hand, I had the HKLM keys inserted in RunOnceEx.NLite inserts HLKM entries prior to RunOnceEx.If Classic logon is turned ON prior to RunOnceEx (HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon","LogonType",0x00010001,0), you get the classic logon screen that wants to login as administrator upon first boot.
