Hi all,

I built an IBM T40 laptop with win2k pro
and two partitions: 30gig ntfs and 10gig fat32
I have a DOS7 Win98 boot cd with ghost7.

After building the OS, I ran sysprep from [start] [run]
, rebooted onto DOS 7CD, and saved the ghost image to FAT32.
So far .. so good.

However, when I rebuild from the image, Win2K insists on
popping open an instance of explorer.exe. This happens
for every user ID I create, and every reboot.... very wierd.

(?) this is not in the [startup] folder anywhere. What could
be causing it? Is there a registry key I can look for?

- Thanks in advance-

Bill

Click to expand...

Under HKLM and HKU look in:
\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run*

Check the All Users StartUp folder.

Unlikely, but still viable is Load and Run in Win.ini.
