you will always get the login screen, you can't bypass that.
However you can set yourself up an administrator account with no password!!
i think there is a key to put in the registry, so you don't have to press Alt-Ctrl-Del, but i don't know what it is

Set the following keys using reg.exe in your install batfile followed by shutdown if your install doesn't include it.
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] AutoAdminLogon=1 DefaultUserName="username to use" LegalNoticeCaption="must be blank" LegalNoticeText="must be blank" DontDisplayLastUsername=0 [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce] "name of batfile to reset reg keys and reboot or logoff"="path to batfile\filename"
make sure you reset the winlogon regkeys and include either reboot or logoff.
