Does anyone know of good resource for scripting XP installs? Unattended installs. I'm looking at rolling out XP to 130 computers and have the RIS install, adding machines automatically to Ad, adding network drivers, etc, working very nicey.

Now I'm looking for details about how to automatically uninstall/remove XP stuff like movie maker, Messenger, AutomaticUpdate, etc, etc.

Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated.

Some of the things you are looking at disabling can be done through group policies in the AD.

I have my AD set to disable messenger, automatic updates, and many many other things.

Yes I've used that also but the powers that be have allowed users to logon locally. Then they play around with Movie maker, messenger, etc. I just wanted to remove the programs completely so as to eliminate the problem altogether.
