When using the P2P Adjust wizard to restore an image to different hardware, there's a possability that users could experience a re-occurring message at Windows startup that states “Setup is preparing your computer for first use”. The error occurs when a Windows installation was not completed correctly. The error will not have been displayed on the original computer, and is only visible after restoring an archive and performing a P2P adjustment. Steps to correcting this error: ****NOTE: It always recommended to perform a backup before editing the registry. 1. Within Windows, Click Start - Run, type 'regedit' and press Enter. 2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup 3. Within HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup you will need to change the following values: **Here is an example of what the registry values could look like "SetupType"=dword:00000000 "SystemSetupInProgress"=dword:00000002 "SetupPhase"=dword:00000004 "CmdLine"="" (This field should be Blank ) "OOBEInProgress"=dword:00000001 ** This is what the values needed to be changed to: "SetupType"=dword:00000000 "SystemSetupInProgress"=dword:00000000 "SetupPhase"=dword:00000000 "CmdLine"="" (This field should be Blank ) "OOBEInProgress"=dword:00000000
Hi, I did the registry value changes. It solved the problem but, when trying to log into the windows 7 default Administrator account it says : Your account has been disabled.Please see your administrator. I went into safe mode and created a new local administrator account. I wish to access my windows default administrator account. Although, I don't even see the windows default administrator account on Logon screen. Please Help me. My Laptop has windows 7 home premium. I tried CMD net user administartor/active:yes does not seem to work because THE Command completed successfully does not appear in cmd.
