You can also add the following key to the user's profile to prevent the language selection dialog box from appearing:

Troubleshooting

No Compatible Drives detected

I found that if the chipset / IDE / SATA drivers are not installed (you are using the Microsoft standard drivers) the burner may not be detected. This can be fixed by deploying the drivers to your workstations. I use the pnputil program (Vista/7 only) to deploy drivers via the network. - See notes here for more info http://www.bdts.com.au/tips/49-windows-server/138-deploy-drivers-to-windows-7.html
