Sorry if I missed the point but XP doesn't load an FTP service by default. You have to add it. Add/Remove -- Window's Component -- (highlight) Internet Info Services -- [Details] -- [] FTP Service X

System Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\IDConfigDB\CurrentDockInfo Value Name: EjectableDocks Data Type: DWORD Value Value Data: (0 = disable Eject PC, 1 = default) By setting the "EjectableDocks" value to 0x00000000 (0) in the key below the "Eject PC" option will be...

Add it at the end after the [URL] section. It is a section of its own like [URL]. If you find a need to add anything else just increment Command1= Command2= You do need AutoLogon=YES (which you have) because these are run at that time. Obviously whatever it is can't force a reboot or whatever...

OK I'm not following. Works as Admin. Doesn't work as Randy. Solution: Replace Admin (working) with Randy (not working). Wouldn't it be better to Copy Admin to Randy and replace the non working one with the working one. I don't think that will fix the issue anyway. Since it happened after an...

This assumes you've copied the \i386 to the HD and run the installation from there. Otherwise the drive letter would be the same as used for the OS install. I don't run this first but last in my GuiRunOnce section. [GuiRunOnce] Command0="C:\i386\winnt32 /cmdcons /unattend"

Maybe I'm looking at it wrong because I can't read that well but sure sounds like you're not opening the same file in both places. You say file will open not that it won't so there is nothing 'mechanically' wrong. You say you've made changes that others can see so they're being saved with file...

If it is a BroadCom NIC I'd suggest updating to latest drivers since this is a known bug for HPs with BC nics. If any old nic same NIC drivers update and like the previous laptop reply turn off power savings on the NIC through its properties in device manager. Checking the wall jack, cable and...

What speed are you burning at? If not the absolute slowest then I'd suggest that, otherwise never mind.

Go here and search on "Auto Logon" http://www.winguides.com/ At some point in your automated install fire off a reg package that updates the required keys. If only one auto logon required fire regs keys from run once that clean up these keys. If more than once work your way through run...

I have a laptop with a S3 Video plug. What do I need or need to do to get the video from the laptop to go out the S3 and into the TV's S3 and display on the TV? If that is possible. Thanks

Bang on linney thanks.

I think there is a Policy, probably through gpedit.msc but am unsure, which turns "Stored Usernames and Passwords" off. There is this: "Prevent Users from Changing Network Drive Mappings Once you establish a set of drive mappings for your users (either as part of a logon script...

Well there is this but I haven't tested it to see if it meets the conditions you want. Disable Password Caching (All Windows) Normally Windows caches a copy of the users password on the local system to allow for additional automation, this leads to a possible security threat on some systems...

Right Click My Computer and OPEN & EXPLORE are missing. How do I 'associate' those two options back in? Thanks

It may have to do with either the Classic Login or Forcing the use of C+A+D to login plus being networked/on a domain. My XPsp1 Pro is set all classic 'long and feel' and Secure Login is enabled (CP-User Account-Advanced-Secure Login) plus there is a setting (can't remember where) thats changes...
