HI
Really new to this so take it easy on me.
How do I create a command lines text file to set the background image of my desktop during install.
This is just one of many tweaks I wish to adjust but If I see how to do one I may get the hang of it to atempt the rest.
I use nlite to integrate service packs and hotfixes but it has limited tweaks.

Kind regards

John

Set up your billboard using these instructions, in the Unattended Guide.

Hi,
Not quite what I wanted. Maybe I didn't phrase things right.
I want to be able to set the desktop background image to show no image rather than selecting display properties and changing manually. "Not the images of my installation process".

Good reply though, i will use that some other time.

Regards

John

Windows Registry Editor 5.00

[HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop]
"Wallpaper"="FilePathAndName.bmp"


If you want to use a JPG file it gets more complicated
