ok. so here i am with my cd.

ive tried 2 methods (and over 20 cds)

all i want is the comptuer to create the default user admin account to Trevor instead of "Owner"

first i tried the OOBEINFO.INI method...

it created the user account, but didnt follow my winnt commands.

with the UnattendSwitch set to No, it does create the account, BUT it asks me about display settings, automatic updates, and doesnt automatically login to the account.

heres my WINNT for this first way

[Data]
AutoPartition = 0
MsDosInitiated = 0
UnattendedInstall = Yes
AutomaticUpdates = Yes

[Unattended]
AutoActivate = Yes
UnattendMode = FullUnattended
OemSkipEula = Yes
OemPreinstall = Yes
TargetPath = \WINDOWS
Repartition=No
FileSystem = *
WaitForReboot = No
UnattendSwitch = No
NoWaitAfterTextMode = 1
NoWaitAfterGUIMode = 1
KeyboardLayout="US"

[GuiUnattended]
AdminPassword = *
EncryptedAdminPassword = No
OEMSkipRegional = 1
TimeZone=4 
OemSkipWelcome=1 
AutoLogon=Yes
AutoLogonCount=1

[UserData]
ProductKey = xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx
FullName = Trevor
OrgName = Home
ComputerName = COMPUTER1

[Display]
ConfigureAtLogon = 1
InstallDriver = 0
BitsPerPel = 16
XResolution = 800
YResolution = 600
VRefresh = 60
AutoConfirm = 1

[Identification]
JoinWorkgroup = MSHOME

[Networking]
InstallDefaultComponents = Yes

[Branding]
BrandIEUsingUnattended = Yes

[URL]
Home_Page = http://www.google.com

[IEPopupBlocker] 
BlockPopups = No
FilterLevel = Low
ShowInformationBar = Yes

[Components]
msmsgs = off
msnexplr = off
zonegames = off

[GuiRunOnce]
%systemdrive%\Drivers\Drivers.cmd

as you can see, i have all the required answers in the file, but it still asks me for them for some reason.

SO I TRIED ANOTHER WAY.

with the Unattended Switch set to Yes, i can bypass the display setting screens, autoupdate screen, etc, BUT i cannot get it to create the user account with my name.

even if i use cmd lines (this is all in the $OEM$ folder btw) it doesnt work

[COMMANDS]
"useraccounts.cmd"

with useraccounts.cmd

net user Trevor /add
net localgroup Administrators "Trevor" /add
net localgroup Administrators "Owner" /delete
net accounts /maxpwage:unlimited
REGEDIT /S autologon.reg
EXIT

and autologon.reg

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
"DefaultUserName"="Trevor"
"DefaultPassword"=""
"AutoAdminLogon"="1"

still doesnt work.

it creates my account, but still logs on to the Owner account.

im getting kinda frusterated because i cant solve this even though i look thru the forums and find possible solutions but they dont work.

ex: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...909entry80909

in addition, both methods ask me if i want to activate windows.... *sigh*

thanks for any input you guys have on this

it feels like im stuck between a rock and hard place
