Upon first logon to Windows 2000, the Configure Your Server wizard starts.
If you perform an unattended install, you can prevent this behavior by editing the Hivedef.inf file:
1. Copy the I386 folder to a distribution share.
2. Navigate to the Hivedef.inf file and make a backup copy.
3. Use Notepad, or any text editor, to find the line that reads:
HKCU,"SoftwareMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionSetupWelcome","srvwiz",0x00010003,1
4. Change the value at the end of the line from 1 to 0.
5. Save the change.
