stampy Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Needing to setup many computers on xp pro. During setup I will need to: 1. set the desktop theme to classic windows 2. turn off the screen saver 3. configure the power schemes to "never" - full power all the time Users are already setup, but all users need these things changed. My searches keep failing. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjDeep00 Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 1. set the desktop theme to classic windows Run( "rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL desk.cpl,,-1" ) WinWaitActive( "Display Properties" ) Send("(" & "!t" & "www" & "{Enter}") 2. turn off the screen saver Run( "rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL desk.cpl,,1" ) WinWaitActive( "Display Properties" ) Send("(" & "!a" & "{Enter}") 3. I am sure you can figure it out.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
