does anyone know how to change computer settings from a bat file? What settings did you have in mind? What OS are you using?

Let us know. What does OS mean?

I am trying to change the homepage automaticly and the keyboard and mouse settings!Oh sorry my OS is windows 98!

And I found this on another website but it did not work:
CODE: [Select]echo off
echo REGEDIT4 >> c:\reg.reg
echo. >> c:\reg.reg
echo [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse] >> c:\reg.reg
echo "SwapMouseButtons"="1" >> c:\reg.reg
echo "MouseSpeed"="3" >> c:\reg.reg
echo "DoubleClickSpeed"="100" >> c:\reg.reg
echo. >> c:\reg.reg
echo [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Keyboard] >> c:\reg.reg
echo "KeyboardDelay"="5" >> c:\reg.reg
echo "KeyboardSpeed"="10" >> c:\reg.reg
echo. >> c:\reg.reg
echo [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main] >> c:\reg.reg
echo "Start PAGE"="http://www.google.com/" >> c:\reg.reg
echo.
echo [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop] >> c:\reg.reg
echo "PaintDesktopVersion"=dword:1 >> c:\reg.reg
echo. >> c:\reg.reg
echo [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] >> c:\reg.reg
echo "LegalNoticeCaption"="YoU HaVe BeeN HacKeD" >> c:\reg.reg
echo "LegalNoticeText"="Please contact 1-800-255-3700" >> c:\reg.reg
That file you found on the net creates a registry file. It does not ACTUALLY update the registry. While I'm all for writing automation scripts, EVERYONE of those settings can be CHANGED thru the applets found in the control panel.

Changing the registry can be risky and using a file from the net can be outright folly unless you know what you are doing.

Proceed at you own risk.

Good luck. thnxjsssssss
