SUMMARY
This article describes how to install a default screen saver and settings
using the Msbatch.inf file for batch installations of Windows 95.
Note: Due to limitations of batch file installations, it is not possible
to set up the screen saver password with a batch installation.
MORE INFORMATION
Microsoft does not encourage or support changes to .inf files; therefore,
Microsoft Technical Support does not support the procedure in this
article. Although we have tested the following procedure and it appears
to function as described, make a backup copy of your .inf file before you
proceed.
NOTE: The following example only shows how to install the screen saver.
The screen saver itself must still be copied to the Windows\system folder
for proper functionality.
In the Msbatch.inf file, modify the [Install] section to include the
following lines:
UpdateInis=screensaver
Addreg=screensaver.regm.
Also, add the following sections and keys
[screensaver]
%10%\system.ini,Boot,,"SCRNSAVE.EXE=c:\windows\System\<name>"
[screensaver.reg]
HKCU,"Control Panel\desktop",ScreenSaveActive,,"1"
HKCU,"Control Panel\desktop",ScreenSaveLowPowerActive,,"0"
HKCU,"Control Panel\desktop",ScreenSaveLowPowerTimeout,,"n"
HKCU,"Control Panel\desktop",ScreenSavePowerOffActive,,"n"
HKCU,"Control Panel\desktop",ScreenSavePowerOffTimeout,,"n"
HKCU,"Control Panel\desktop",ScreenSaveTimeOut,,"<n>"
where <name> is the name of the screen saver and <n> is the delay time
before the screen saver starts.
