I know about the one on the Windows XP CD, but is there one which gives me control over things like which Windows Setup (in Control Panel) programs are installed? For example, not install accessibility options, themes etc?
Thanks

there may well be extra options in your answerfile which would help. alternatively knock up a batch file whihc makes the rundll calls to uninstall them, then set that as a first run app to run from a network share & use the OPK
Is there anyway to add something to the sysprep file (the one generated by the deployment program), which prevents the Windows Luna theme being installed, and just makes Windows Classic the default?
Thanks
i doubt you can prevent luna being installed, but...
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ThemeManager]
"WCreatedUser"="1"
"ThemeActive"="0"
aha! the default!
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ThemeManager]
"ThemeActive"="0"
to actually ERASE luna, just delete everything in c:\windows\resources\themes - make sure nobody's using it though!
Wont they be marked as system files though ?
If they are, somtimes winXP can have a fit and start the "your files have been hax0red" rubbish and prompt you for the CD at random times (like in the middle of a game :rolleyes:)
depends at what stage you do it. if the WFP service isn't running (e.g. during install) then you can catch it then.
