Have you ever wanted a Windows CD that would install Windows by automatically putting in your name, product key, timezone and regional settings? And have it merged with the latest Service Pack to save time? Followed by silently installing all your favourite applications along with DirectX 9.0c, .Net Framework 1.1 and then all the required hotfixes, updated drivers, registry tweaks, and a readily patched UXTheme.dll without any user interaction whatsoever? Then this guide will show you how you can do just that!
The unattended windows guide has been broken into three parts: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced.
The Beginner portion will cover the updating of your CD, along with automating setup itself.
The Intermediate portion covers adding Drivers and Applications to your CD, as well as User creation and other little tidbits.
The Advanced section is where it gets really fun. We’ll customize the look and feel of your setup, as well as add hacked files to remove the limits put upon the system.
A great guide especially for those who install windows quite often..
