Sgt_Strider Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Here is my registry tweak file:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ; Disable screensavers[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]"ScreenSaveActive"="0"[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]"SCRNSAVE.EXE"=""[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop]"ScreenSaveActive"="0"[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop]"SCRNSAVE.EXE"=""; 120 DPI[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontDPI]"LogPixels"=dword:00000078Right now I'm using a program called HFSLIP for my unattended install. However, even when I use the txtsetup method, these two registry tweaks filed to work. Why is that the case? How are you guys managing to get these two tweaks to work?

Tomcat76 Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 A note aside...When reg editing from SVCPACK, you should know there is no "HKEY_CURRENT_USER"; anything you code for that will be translated for "HKEY_USERS". So you're basically doing the same thing twice.If a reg key doesn't take it can only be because it's being overwritten by something else during Windows setup. I'll check out some files in a Windows source to see which might be responsible for breaking your tweaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you can figure this out as I'm counting on you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommyp Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 Sgt - Here's what I have to disable my screensaver... (I cut out some pieces from my overall reg file).[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop]"ScreenSaveActive"="1""ScreenSaverIsSecure"="0""ScreenSaveTimeOut"="900""SCRNSAVE.EXE"="(NONE)"[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]"ScreenSaveActive"="1""ScreenSaverIsSecure"="0""ScreenSaveTimeOut"="900""SCRNSAVE.EXE"="(NONE)"I'm not sure if the word (NONE) means anything or not, but it's worth a shot. As far as the 120 DPI goes, I searched the forums for you and found somthing that Professor Frink wrote on this topic. http://www.msfn.org/board/lofiversion/inde...t21814-800.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it work for you?I think Professor Frink is saying exactly what Tomcat is saying. Maybe the tweak just doesn't work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcat76 Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 As far as the font DPI goes...I found font.inf, but that file -- as far as I understand it -- is some sort of "info database" which is called whenever you change the DPI and/or the codepage. What I (or you) need to find out is how the system should be set to 120dpi so that Windows setup executes the correct section from font.inf.

tommyp Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 Sgt - It is up to you to generate it. Generating reg tweaks is well beyond the scope of HFSLIP, please ask in the proper forum. Thread closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
