i got a few problems running those applications silently:

DivXPro52.exe
ABC-win32-v2.6.8.exe
winamp504_full.exe

heres is what i have in my batch file:



some help would be really appreciated !!

if possible id like to be able to edit the options of winamp too..

thanks a lot

This is what I use for winamp:
http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...ndpost&p=163957

I use a capital 's' for abc, build my own winamp package and use FFDshow since I'm not that much of an encoder.

So, try using the big s? (for abc)

i've worked out the silent install with the big Winamp 5.04 MSI thread

i'm gonna try the capital S for ABC 2.6.8

would still need Divx 5.2 though gonna try with a capital S for this one too


and i am also using those lines to delete the shortcuts created on the desktop:

The thing is, i think VMWare creates a somewhat different account on the virtual OS. It creates it like: <Virtual Account created>.<Current REAL Account>

for example, my real account right now is "Ben" and i want my unattended XP CD to create an account named "Benoit"
which produces in VMWare an account "Benoit.Ben"

therefore the second line doesnt quite work. But will it work okay when i use the real CD on a real HD ?

capital S worked both for DivX and ABC, i didnt know it could change anything

BUT Divx still shows some registration screen... :X

any idea ?

I use Wmware too, and i found the following code snippet to be better for getting rid of those annyoing and useless shortcuts



These variables point to the complete path to the relevant directories. I've never personally had any problems with WMWare. What version are you using?
