you can try fixboot too ... and chkdsk for sure your data is okay.

Hi all I'm building my unattended multi cd , and unattended installs are ready ... but in regular installations I would like to execute a batch during install without using winnt.sif because "Repair" function can't be executed ... so is there a way to edit txtsetup.sif or another file to copy/execute a command .. I'm thinking about an .inf file will set a runoncex key or something ... Please come on if you have a half (or full^^) solution edit: is it possible to copy a file in start folder of all users in txtsetup.sif ? I will try ...

mshta.exe is integrated into windows ... in batch the full path is specified to avoid errors ... but you can use start /w %wpipath%\wpi.hta if you want !

If I remember, MUI works in native english, but when you install a MUI language pack, you can choose language before opening session (same way like changing keyboard mapping).

cluberti is right, Windows XP setup has a disk/partition manager utility before begin the real install.

The key in registry is a key doesn't require any activation if CD contains OEM's bios files (so, you must have dell OEM windows and you must have dell materials too). Key on the sticker is an original key which works on regular windows xp cd but to activate it you must phone to microsoft. The WPA.DBL method is completely obsolete since service pack 1. My solution (I work too in computer shop in france ...) : Create a multi boot cd with windows home & professional regular with all informations generic (same User name & same settings) and I have blanked ProductKey, I enter the key when is needed and I activate later (or the final client activate itself, it's not hard to do ^^). The bad/fun part is for drivers & softs !

NTFS rigths are okay ? Attributes of files/folders are okay too ?

It done. paste this before line 62 of boxes.js if ( getOSver()!="2K" && getOSver()!="XP" && getOSver()!="03" ) { var dc=0; } else { var dc=1; } paste this before line 66 of boxes.js if (dc=="0") { } else { paste this after line 77 (To close 'if') } These lines allow to ignore cond[pn] if os is different of windows 2k/xp/2k3. kelsen: you can edit again the title ^^ to "Disable conditions if Windows 98 is detected" and again big thanks to you and contrib. for wpi tool.

yes of course search and read on the forum, section Devices Drivers ... gl & hf ^^

You can use this batch http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=64215 Delete lines between @echo off and set source (keep set source= ...) Replace set source=%systemdrive%\ by set source=YourDrive:\

Use replacement like this http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=46258 In fact, boot folder is a copy of certain files of i386. It seems to be the boot floppy disks ...

because you have already clicked on button ^^ otherwise I don't know.

you don't work on Windows XP/2000 ?! replace %ProgramFiles% by C:\Program Files\ ... and don't forget quotes. Hope it's the last post ^^

Find it with Search function and look the path found.

you can delete mapped drive by command line like ... rem Go to local drive to allow disconnect mapped drive ... %systemdrive% cd \ rem Disconnect ... net use X: /DELETE /YES

try with xcopy ... xcopy /y /s "%systemdrive%\install\defs.ref" "%ProgramFiles%\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware SE Personal\" copy doesn't need the name of destination file too ...

if you have just music to backup go to partition your disk and move music on new partition and reformat first partition and install one clean system ...

and Ad-Aware is already installed ??

In your reg you set "UIHost"="loginuix.exe" but the .exe name is logonuix.exe ...

open a cmd windows, and launch the bath, what happens in windows ? what's error ?

Past softs are free too.

must be : copy /y "%systemdrive%\install\defs.ref" "%ProgramFiles%\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware SE Personal\defs.ref"

I try to edit boxes.js ... I have added if (getOSver()!="XP") WhatCodeToInsertHereToIgnoreCond? after line 66 if(cond[i] && cond[i][0]) { When I replace "WhatCodeToInsertHereToIgnoreCond?" by continue all cond are treated to false ... ps: I'm n00b in JavaScript ... ps2: Edit title to Win98 : 'FileExist' doesn't work on network drive

Post your folder tree (screenshot in explorer is best). $OEM$ must be present at same level of i386 folder for each system ...
