GeneralIx Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 (edited) I've made such a fine unattended XP like the most of you too, followed the steps nicely, but at the first boot up i still get the screen that asks for username, would you like to register with microsoft now etc. I import the registry tweaks in the T13/12 stage yet I don't know how to bypass this screen. I'm hoping for your help. Thanks in advance!Yours,General IxSorry for posting in the wrong section Edited May 17, 2006 by GeneralIx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuMz Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 (edited) I don't exactly remember which of the ones below solve your problem, but if you don't have any of the ones listed below, add them in and try...[unattended]Unattendmode = FullUnattendedOemPreinstall = YesUnattendSwitch = Yes**EDIT: Confirmed that it is the UnattendSwitch = YesUnattendSwitchSpecifies whether Setup skips Windows Welcome or Mini-Setup when preinstalling Windows XP Home Edition or Windows XP Professional using the CD boot method.Syntax UnattendSwitch = Yes | No Values Yes Instructs Setup to skip Windows Welcome.No Instructs Setup not to skip Windows Welcome.Default Value No Example UnattendSwitch = Yes Edited May 18, 2006 by JuMz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralIx Posted May 20, 2006 Author Share Posted May 20, 2006 (edited) I'm going to try the UnattendSwitch = Yes tomorrow, I'm about 105 kilometers from home at the moment But it sounds like the solution I was looking for. Thanks a lot!No it's not the autoactivate= Yes, I've made mine preactivated. It asks for registering not activating You don't need a royalty OEM release to preactivate. Just copy your own: %SystemRoot%\system32\OEMBIOS.BIN %SystemRoot%\system32\CatRoot\{F750E6C3-38EE-11D1-85E5-00C04FC295EE}\OEMBIOS.CAT %SystemRoot%\system32\OEMBIOS.DAT %SystemRoot%\system32\OEMBIOS.SIG Makecab them and put the makecabbed (is this a verb?) versions in your I386 folder, worked fine for me. Not sure if you can do this if you have a cracked windows though... Edited May 20, 2006 by GeneralIx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
