Classic Mode prob auto login new user HELP

[hevnbnd]

Ok here is the problem i nearly have my auto install completed. I am having one problem. I decided it would be best to create a user and have him log in automaticly before the install of all my apps. When i set up a user account my install continues however the account is not created and windows is in classic mode when it completes the final restart. It was not in classic mode before i attempted to add the new user. Also i tried the install with and without the reg file and both completed with the same result as described about so i dont believe the reg file is the prob but i could be wrong. I read thru many pages and here is what i came up with:

$OEM$

-Cmdlines.txt

-user.cmd

-Reg_Root_tweaks.reg

Cmdlines.txt looks like this:

[COMMANDS]

".\user.cmd"

user.cmd looks like this:

CLS

@ECHO OFF

ECHO Adding Default User...

net user "Brian A. Cox /add

net localgroup "administrators" "Brian A. Cox" /add

ECHO.

ECHO Applying Root Registry Tweaks...

REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\install\Reg_Root_Tweaks.reg

ECHO.

Reg_Root_tweaks.reg looks like this:

Please someone help. I am so close to finishing thanks to all of you guys help in the past. B

[valkyre]

"AutoAdminLogon"="1"

Try removing that. Not sure that it will fix your problem, but it shouldn't be in there.

Also, what is in this file?

[GuiRunOnce]
%systemdrive%\install\main_batch.cmd

And what the heck is this?

FactoryMode = YES

[hevnbnd]

Ok removed "AutoAdminLogon"="1" but will be a while before i can complete a new install and test it. I found this information here http://board.MSFN.org/index.php?showtopic=...ate%20user&st=0

[GuiRunOnce]

%systemdrive%\install\main_batch.cmd

is my batch file that installs all my apps. Here is a copy of it:

Specifies that Windows Welcome or Mini-Setup does not delete the OPK tools from %systemdrive%\Sysprep during the next boot of the computer.

Use this entry when performing a clean install of the operating system as the first step in building a master installation, which you then plan to duplicate onto multiple destination computers. You must place the OPK tools in the %systemdrive%\Sysprep folder.

I really dont think i need this command i am removing it from the winnt.sif file. I will post if your suggestion worked or not. If anyone else has any suggestin let me know. Thanks B

net user "Brian A. Cox /add

Shouldnt that be

net user "Brian A. Cox" /add

[hevnbnd]

Yes it should. Fixed that performing a clean install will post when finished if any of the suggestions above worked. Anymore things anyone sees wrong? Also so why does nothing have to be inserted into the winnt.sif file refrencing the Cmdlines.txt? Just did not know how the install knows to look there. B

[Aaron]

By default when OEMPreinstall is enabled, Windows checks for the existance of a cmdlines.txt file in the $OEM$ folder, so it doesn't need to be specified anywhere apart from the OEMPreinstall value in winnt.sif
