I'm using Setup manager to run an automated install for win2k, but the install does not seem to be fully automated. The install stops at the user information window and i have to click next in order for the installation to finish. What can i do to fix this problem?

You cannot do a completely unattended install from a CD. However if you copy the installation files to writeable media (e.g. local hard drive or network share) then you can use an "Unattended Answer File" to supply information about users. To find the syntax for Answer files see unattend.doc in the deploy.cab file in the \Support\Tools folder of the Win2K installation CD-ROM.
