Well I have been using Nlite mostly and have been having trouble with it no getting past the Regional Settings and the OEMWelcome screen. I then replaced the Nlite Winnt.sif with on made by Setupmgr.exe and I can get past the regional settings thing, but I still get windows stopping at the screen letting me know that windows is adjusting my visual settings and once I'm past that I have to deal with the **** OEM welcome.

Please some save my sanity.

Here is the setupmgr winnt.sif

Ok here is the problem I think. Setupmgr.exe left this out for some reason and Nlite wrote it wrong

Notice the bold section. That should say Yes. How could Nlite miss that? Or perhaps it has something to do with another setting I used. Go figure

Also, add the following line in [Display]

AutoConfirm=1

You will not get the screen telling you that windows is adjusting your display settings
