Thanks to Aaron, i got some space to upload files.

I uploaded my unattended registry entries here

Extract the zip file to $OEM$\$$\

In your unattend file, put this:

[Unattended]
UnattendMode=FullUnattended
OemPreinstall=Yes
OemSkipEula=Yes

[GuiRunOnce]
Command0="%windir%\Reg\reg.bat"

Now when you install xp unattended, it'll import all my registry settings. These settings are only for XP Pro. As you see, i took a slightly different approach from most people. I have the registry files saved as .reg files, and reg.bat imports them. This wasy is very flexible, allowing me to add/remove reg hacks very easily.

My reg hacks do the following:

-disables 4 services
-Clears the XP start menu (i don't know why but it does)
-associates .sif and .nfo files as text files
-customizes the explorer interface
-disables simple file sharing

and more.

Enjoy,

-gosh

why not use a command like this to process all reg files in a folder

for %%i in (%systemdrive%\install\Tweaks\*.reg) do REGEDIT /S %%i

this'll work in cmdlines.txt and guirunonce.. dont even have to cd into the folder as the variable %%i contains the full path and filename of the reg file

just a thought

i use it for my hotfixes .. 3 lines of code to do all hotfixes .. nice

edit :: might be better to use this

for %%i in (%systemdrive%\install\Tweaks\*.reg) do start /wait REGEDIT /S %%i

dont want the machine to overload processing 100 reg files at once

@Numinous, why is it that you allways s**g people off all the time, then when they respond to you, you say only joking, why do you not just keep your opinions to yourself, not everyone is as clever as you *cough* *cough* oh my i wish i was a god like you, if only i knew everything in the world just like you **NOT** most people in here have forgotten more than you will ever know, but for all those that havn't, why dont you just leave them the f**k alone and try and be a little more constructive with your comments.

and forgotten more than i know

you say constructive with my comments, you obviously didnt read top down.. exactly my argument

[Jeremy]

Ego or Eggo? Too much syrup! Whoooaaa!
Nice tips in the beginning of the thread, anyways...
Nominous, I see you decided to do the typical immature sexuality preference of the other poster for the sake of making yourself feel like you successfully "dissed it out". Well, congratulations on making yourself look like an id***.
This is MSFN Unattended, not grade 6.

[GreenMachine]

Now, Jeremy, why in the world are you replying to a nearly two year old topic to add your two cents? Who is making whom look like what!?

Personally, I miss Numinous. There was a chap with brains, spunk, and loved to have fun!

Numinous! Come back!

[Alanoll]

I'd like all three back...

My, my, my... none of you know me, and that's fine. I understand you're all regulars, and feel entitled to vent and flame. Feel free to do so with my post as well. Of course, on any of the sites I administer, you'd be warned once about wasting my bandwidth on off-topic replies, then you'd be blocked for some period of time, depending on the severity. Things you apparently don't realize about these types of posts:
1:) New visitors to the forum, who are visiting a PINNED TOPIC get to wade through all your posturing before they figure out that everything useful is at the top.
2:) Every reply uses server space, and bandwidth in BOTH directions. Your flames eat up space on a server, and waste server bandwidth. Other readers also waste their bandwidth downloading your comments, which are unrelated to the PINNED TOPIC.
3:) Posting off-topic personal requests in a forum thread muddies up the reading for everyone. We routinely remove off-topics, or move them to more appropriate places.

... This is where I decide I won't waste any more bandwidth or time. In short, this thread contains useful information and was pinned as part of the library for unattended developers. The replies here make the thread appear amateurish and childish. Is that your intent? If not, maybe every reply which doesn't further enhance the topic would have been more appropriate in a PM. These are just the thoughts of one renegade coder who visits this site pretty frequently...(and probably the reason all my code still goes to open-source projects )

[Alanoll]

I sometimes find it amusing going off topic. I find it even more amusing that you chose this thread to whose last reply was back in February.

Speaking of going off topic, what does your post have to do with "Gosh's Registry Files"? This thread isn't pinned either.
