    Audit mode is a mode of Windows Setup that lets you bypass Windows Welcome so you can quickly access the desktop.

    Audit mode is usually entered by running sysprep /audit command or using an answer file setting during unattended installation.

    But if you install Windows Vista manually on a computer, you can also break into audit mode when the Windows Welcome screen appears by pressing CTRL+SHFT+F3.

    This lets you get to the desktop quickly so you can add drivers, install applications, and do other stuff without having to go through all the steps of Windows Welcome.
