most versions of windows can be set up with a unattended install script that can be customized to what you want to have unattended on the install process. I would do a search on Microsoft's web site to see if you can find how to do this based on the version of Windows you are using in your environment...

Thanks for the input, however, we use unattend to build the machines - however, we use a VB front end to choose build type/server/setup,restore options/hidden backups etc. that I need to get working in WINPE - when I run the program nothing appears on the screen.

Hello,<br />
<br />
I am currently using WinPE to help build machines. I would like to use some VB programs to automate certain tasks; however, it seems WINPE does not support this. I know it can be done using BARTPE but the company would rather stay as close to the offical supported microsoft product as possible....<br />
<br />
Any Ideas?<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />

Running VB Apps in WINPE

Operating systems perform basic tasks, such as recognizing input from the keyboard, sending output to the display screen, keeping track of files and directories on the disk, and controlling peripheral devices such as disk drives and printers. For large systems, the operating system makes sure that different programs and users running at the same time do not interfere with each other. The operating system is also responsible for security, ensuring that unauthorized users do not access the system. Operating systems provide a software platform on top of which other programs, called application programs, can run.
