I created my Unattended SP2 XPCD, it works great except one thing, when it reboots after formating the installation is at 4bit colors, when its finally done and goes to windows its still in 4bit colors(like the windows 98 installation), i tride to change the resolution but it will not let me, and the dpi section is greyed out, i installed the video drivers and it fixed the issue. What am i doing wrong????

Did you remove the video drivers using Nlite?

[tatico973]

No, but last night i tried it on another computer and it worked fine, 800X600 at 24bit all through setup and even after, the first test machines had an onboard video card from intel, ive had my share of problems with intel boards. maybe it was just that board, but it never did that with my SP1 unattended cd.

im having the same issue. ive tried using nircmd. doesn't work.
after everything installs the resolution goes to 640x480 4bit. I did remove a few things with nlite such as MSN Explorer and a bunch of keyboard and language packs but thats it. nothing else. heres my winnt.sif file, perhaps its sumthing in here?
