shotgn22,

Thanks for the help.
I think that maybe i wasn't clear.

I have over 100 different images at 100 different locations.

These .IMG files don't have this new msgina.dll file staged that i am attempting to load so what i would like to do is copy the modified msgina.dll to C:\msgina.dll using WINPE and then add the registry key into the image using WINPE so that the new msgina.dll is read as soon as Altiris boots the PC to perform the configuring computer task (right before it's controlable from the Altiris console and before any additional scripts are run)

Doing this after communication is established with the Altiris Console after imaging would defeat its purpose in my environment.

I just don't understand because i know that my modified msgina.dll file is a good working file as i've tested it by doing the process manually and using the command i mentioned above WINPE does indeed load the registry key into the registry.

The key is there but for some odd reason is not being read properly....

Advice is appreciated on how to get this to work.

PS: I am not overwriting the existing non altered microsoft msgina.dll in C:\windows\system32. I am staging a modified copy under C:\

Thanks guys
