System Settings tweaking

Hello,

I am creating a setup project in WISE for a package that we deploy. We are
trying to automate the configuration of the System Properties that are set by
right-clicking on My Computer and choosing "Properties." I am trying to
figure out how we can get to these settings through the registry or system
file that stores these properties so that we can automate the process of
configuring Windows XP without having to manually go into the System
Properties dialog box and setting these values.

Does anyone have any insight as to where and how these registry and or file
entries are stored? Is this something we will have to do with API calls or
through the .NET Framework?

Thanks so much,

Amrit Kohli
