Madhits45 Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I get to the login with administrator and do not see OOBE like I normaly do. Worked with last nlite 1.2. Has anyone else seen this or am I the only one? Perhaps its something else causing OOBE not to run before first login? Any ideasAnyone's feedback would be appreciated.

wstest Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 yes ,it is same to me. i think it is a bug in nlite 1.21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malcolmx Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 It's not an nLite bug. I had the same problem and as it turned out, it was add-on 's fault. In my case it was Boogy WMP11 slipstreaming add-on. If you guys aren't integrating any add-on like that you should check your settings in nLite twice, and ensure that all conditions of OOBE are met.

Madhits45 Posted November 7, 2006 Author Share Posted November 7, 2006 (edited) hmmm.. well WMP11 would never find its way onto my pc. Media player classic. Nuff Said..I think if anything it might be a services bug. wstest can you post your last session file. Maybe we both removed or disabled the same service. I've noticed the services seem to do some wacky things. I posted my file for you. THXAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh This sucks Edited November 7, 2006 by Madhits45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madhits45 Posted November 7, 2006 Author Share Posted November 7, 2006 Darn it. I just made another CD and OOBE failed to start again. I had hoped I would have found the problem with this by not disabling any services. Yet I have changed all services to either default or auto. None are set to disable. I still dont have OOBE running and its not removed. Does anyone have any idea why OOBE will not work? The last version of nlite did not have this problem (1.2). Anyone have a clue why this is happening? I have included my last session ini file.LAST_SESSION.INI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malcolmx Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Hmm, I 'm not sure, but imo you should mark 'Windows Activation' and 'OOBE' in full compatibilty (one window that pops-up when entering "removing components" section"). As I saw in your 'last session.ini" you remove many network apps and services.. This may cause problem as well. To aviod it, you should do what I wrote at the beginnig.

rehbar Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 (edited) First of all i recommand you that you don't remove OOBE by nlit. If you don't removed oobe then simply do this action.after complateing process of nlite don't make iso. Then go to 386 folder and edit winnt.sif by notepad. modify the velue of "OEMskipwellcome=Yes" to "Oemskipwellcome=NO" then make iso by nlite and take a try to install xp... Will it run oobe? if work then PM me Edited November 11, 2006 by rehbar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuhi Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Madhits45, did you set your Autologon to None in users page and used only nLite's unattended ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madhits45 Posted November 12, 2006 Author Share Posted November 12, 2006 Nuhi- autologon is not set to none and I use my own winnt.sif file. It is the same sif file i have used since nlite inception. Never have changed it.rehbar- I have the "OEMskipwellcome actually set to OemSkipWelcome=1 which I believe is the same as no. I have not changed it in some time.I believe this is a bug. Others have had the autologon issue also even though there sif file is set correctly. This usta happen back before nlite was 1.0. I remember having this same bug then.In my session file I do not select OOBE full compatibility but i never have had to. I'll try that but why would it only now be a problem?THX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuhi Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Are you kidding me.You basically haven't used nLite for Unattended settings and you call it a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madhits45 Posted November 12, 2006 Author Share Posted November 12, 2006 (edited) Nuhi- I setup my winnt.sif file a long time ago and it has worked from nlite .90 or whenever I first got my hands on it back in 04 till version 1.0 (only thing I added was IE pop up blocker settings once those were added). I have never changed a setting and I keep a folder with all my custome files in it so once I'm done nliting I copy those files over. Those files are my winnt.sif, some replaced jpeg, bmps and few wav files i replace also. So if this is not a bug then why now would OOBE not run on first boot?I'm not saying i'm not willing to look at my sif file but what has changed that would cause this issue.I included my sif file for reference.WINNT.SIF Edited November 12, 2006 by Madhits45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuhi Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 For unattended Windows questions you have another sub-forum where you can get your answers faster, just don't talk about nlite while you ask for OOBE setup.If you try nLite with autologon to none and OOBE kept you'll see it starts. If not then you can call it a bug and I'll try your preset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rehbar Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 "Madhits 45" this is the line that case to not run oobe... OemSkipWelcome=1 to OemSkipWelcome=0Then oobe will run on first run of windows xp if oobe was run from orginal xp cd then... If it also not run if you install from orignal xp cd then it will not run...nuhi it is not bug but just want's change by you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madhits45 Posted November 13, 2006 Author Share Posted November 13, 2006 rehbar- I will change that and see what happens. I have decided to go back to nlite 1.01 because I also cant get all the languages to remove and extra fonts & some of the services I dont select for removal end up removing. I will see if the problem is there also. I cant understand why this setting would only now cause me problems. I keep both my integrated sp2 cd and all my replace files in a seperate location for use after nlite. They have been the same files for some time unchanged.Thanks for the help.

rehbar Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 (edited) Because of M$ advice that if you want's to allow to run oobe then you have to set these setting in .sif file then this will done.OemSkipWelcome=0 UnattendSwitch="No"then this will applied and oobe will work.
