not really interesting for this tread but I have one question, It's possible to get templates from server 2003 and apply to xp ? beacause I want the Force Guest network login but not the Simple Sharing Interface (and lost the security tab too ...), if anyone has a solution to keep Security tab and force guest login, come on !

Interesting way, I'm not remember this function, it's noted. For me, I use my method because I use for os already installed and not updated ...

you can fake counter by the ping command ... @echo off net user aspnet /delete cls echo Reboot in few seconds/minutes .... ping -n 30 127.0.0.1 >NUL shutdown.exe -r -f -t 00 EXIT ps: net user before reboot !

In fact WGA.exe is LegitCheckControl.msi ... (the .exe is silent install) WUv6.exe is international version of Windows Update v6. I have mirrored these files on my website .. http://sonic9.free.fr/files/Updates/

When you call your application.cmd ? (T - ? ) I think it's best to install updates prior to applications ...

KB896727 is superseeded by other update I think ... KB887472 is installed just to keep Windows Update clean (and however it's disabled in windows componants) ... and I install MSN Messenger 7.2 too ... WGA.exe is Windows Genuine Agent to authenticate version of windows ... WUv6.exe is the Windows Update v6 components (nothing to install to go to windowsupdate.com) For the windows trial, I think you must have a msdn account ... or perhaps with a passport account ? ... Personnaly, I have severals OEM version ... if you have your license you can download the OEM version on P2P/FTP (it isn't illegal I think ...)

I have these : 873339hf.exe 885250hf.exe 885835hf.exe 885836hf.exe 886185hf.exe 887742hf.exe 888113hf.exe 888302hf.exe 890046hf.exe 890859hf.exe 891781hf.exe 893066hf.exe 893756hf.exe 894391hf.exe 896358hf.exe 896422hf.exe 896423hf.exe 896428hf.exe 899587hf.exe 899589hf.exe 899591hf.exe 900725hf.exe 901017hf.exe 901214hf.exe 902400hf.exe 904706hf.exe 905414hf.exe 905749hf.exe ie_896688.exe mrt1.9_890830.exe (not high security) oe_887797.exe oe_900930.exe WGA.exe (not high security) WI_3.1_893803v2.exe WI_Up_898461.exe wm_887472.exe (not high security) WUv6.exe (not high security) I let you compare with my list, I will eat ... Goodbye. ps: There is full list on the FIRST POST too !! ps2: I have excluded Dotnet ... because I use the repackaged version by RyanVM.

If you copy the directory manually in true dos mode you must use smartdrv.exe before the copy command ... Goodbye.

cmdlines.txt isn't the correct file for post-installation, you must use one RunOnceEx.cmd in cmdlines.txt which set the regkey's RunOnceEx, and after first login the other batch like WPI are launched ... + edit: tu doit appeller WPI.cmd depuis RunOnceEx ...

I think you update Windows Media player ... You must install it with this code setup_wm.exe /Q /R:N /DisallowSystemRestore

You cannot delete these folders it's checked by SFC ... You must disable system file protection and have a patched version of .dll. You can turn off easily with this program : http://www.tcmagazine.info/forums/index.php?showtopic=544 (Working under no-safe mode too ...)

Qchain is obsolete !!! the mecanism to keep the good last version of a patched file is integrated in all post sp2 hotfixes (and post sp1 if I remember ...) Goodbye.

Thanks Doc, but doesn't work because I use for, no ? This is what I make : @echo off cd /d "%~dp0" echo ... Patchage ... set i=29 for %%a in (*hf.exe) do ( echo %i% pause <- just for test! instead "start /w ...." set /a i = %i% - 1 ) exit Result : Always display 29 !

Hi all, I have a batch to install hotfixes ... all run fine but I havn't any progress bar and I use just the "time" function ... but it isn't perfect ... so if anyone has a solution to integrate a counter, post ! My actual batch : @echo off color 0f title Patchs cd /d "%~dp0" time /t echo. echo ... Patchage ... for %%a in (*hf.exe) do ( start /wait "" %%a /quiet /norestart ) exit In fact, I would like the batch say : Install in progress ... 30 29 28 27 ... I have search with for /l command but I don't know how combine with the first for command ...

I have deleted too the kb873333 from my folder ... perhaps a hold hotfix ... my folder now is cleaned. edit: yes typo for me too !

many people use RapidShare.de try it ...

You have differents patchs for windows ... You can make/get a pack with just the critical hotfixes listed on Windows Update .... (about 30+ hotfixes) RyanVM make another pack with others patchs (but not for the critical security), and after you can see different size of these packs because the compression/re-packaging is not the same for the creators ... For me I prefer get patch one by one on Microsoft.com , and I have a batch to install all the hotfixes ... (I use this solution beacause I use French version of Windows xp ....) Goodbye.

execute this command at each boot ... (in batch file)

@JimmyW: You can install hotfixes with cmd bath file ... You can read this post and modify the bath for you ... http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...ndpost&p=376973 ++ edit: Qchain is integrated in all posts sp1 hotfixes now .... it's obsolete now...

Use reg file ... and regedit /S TheReg.reg in your cmdlines.txt ... REGEDIT4 ;Invite de commandes [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\Shell\cmd] @="Invite de commandes" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\Shell\cmd\command] @="cmd.exe /k \"cd %L\"" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Shell\cmd] @="Invite de commandes" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Shell\cmd\command] @="cmd.exe /k \"cd %L\"" Edit the name & co ... (french here ) Goodbye.

I think it isn't bad to keep new security services in SP2 but we can stop nags with this tweaks ... REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center] "AntiVirusDisableNotify"=dword:00000001 "FirewallDisableNotify"=dword:00000001 "UpdatesDisableNotify"=dword:00000001

You must use " " ... start /wait "" %systemdrive%\packages\spybot\spybotsd14.exe /VerySilent ECHO Spybot Search & Destroy 1.4 Installed! ECHO. ++

You must use a reg key to indicate to windows this is not the first login ... but it's the night for me and I don't remember the key ... if I remember I will post here ... but you can search on the forum there is also the solution. Goodbye.

This method works only with original Windows XP ... with SP1 or SP2 it isn't possible ... You need use the function in Winnt.sif ... [Unattended] AutoActivate = Yes ++

What you want to boot ?! a win32 app ?!
