Bypassing the OOBE
To go into Audit mode from the beginning of the OOBE process, press Ctrl+Shift+F3. This can be done after a fresh install or after the system has already been through Sysprep.
Audit Mode
When a system is in audit mode, it will remain in that mode until you tell it to restart back into OOBE mode. The Sysprep GUI is shown on each boot, and your actions are performed under the Administrator user account.
