I have set up accounts in the past with no problem. Although now after a computer reload, i am noticing that i can not complete auto config. I click auto config, then hit ok, ok, ect until i get to the box to run>save>quit ect , i used to remember ther being an open open also in that box, but it is not there. any way, if i hit run, a notepad box opens with all the registry settings in it. That is were i am lost. Is there something i need to set on my computer to make this work again and just add the reg settings and finish to complete the auto config.
Thanks

That auto config is outdated for some time now. And I don't think works properly.

What you can do is this though, when that textfile opens, copy it and save to notepad naming it whatever you like, just make sure the extension is .reg.
(ie: autoconfigsettings.reg)

Optional: On the top of the file change what is says to this:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00


Once you have saved it as a registry file to desktop, double click it and say yes. That will merge the details into your registry for you.
