Set Windows Classic as default theme mena661 <guest[ at ]unknown-email.com> 11/13/2008 8:04:34 PM Hello all, Trying to set the Classic theme as the default theme either through the registry (preferably) or an unattend.xml file. Not having any luck so far. Does anyone know a way to do this? Thanks. -- mena661

What if he's setting up quite a lot of machines? You're suggesting he'd have to manually intervene and set the value on each and every one of them? Why?
