Alternative to hotfix integration?
Sonic replied to Railman5's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
All after "echo" it's description of the action below .... change it to your language ... you can delete all "echo" lines .. and the batch doesn't display anything ... -
Alternative to hotfix integration?
Sonic replied to Railman5's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
Hi, my method: WinXP with SP2 and WMP10 , manually reduced & automatised After, I launch a batch (see code below). You can use a batch (RunOnceEx.cmd) which write values into registry (wich launch 'Updates.cmd') and after a the reboot the batch install hotfixes ... Updates.cmd (by Sonic) pick up & mixed up on this forum @echo off color 0f title Windows Update cd /d "%~dp0" echo - Windows Installer 3.1 ... start /wait "" WI_3.1.exe /quiet /norestart echo - Windows Update v6 ... start /wait "" WUv6.exe /wuforce /quiet /norestart echo - Windows Genuine Advantage ... start /wait "" WGA.exe echo - Fixe Faille avec GDI ... reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\GdiDetectionTool" /v "GDITool" /t REG_DWORD /d "00000001" /f >NUL echo - Fixe Faille avec JView Profiler ... reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\{03D9F3F2-B0E3-11D2-B081-006008039BF0}" /v "Compatibility Flags" /t REG_DWORD /d 1024 /f >NUL echo - Hotfixes majeures ... for %%a in (*hf.exe) do ( Start /wait "" %%a /quiet /norestart ) echo - Hotfixes mineures ... for %%a in (*mf.exe) do ( Start /wait "" %%a /quiet /norestart ) exit Edit the code to run perhaps all KB*.exe. Make sure all hotfixes are in the same folder of the batch ... Goodbye. -

Unattended install not so unattended
Sonic replied to DVDave's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
Check your WinNT.sif You have two value to check [Unattended] UnattendSwitch=Yes [GuiUnattended] OemSkipWelcome=1 From the ultimate guide of MSFN : UnattendSwitch="yes" Specifies whether Setup skips Windows Welcome or Mini-Setup when preinstalling Windows XP Home Edition or Windows XP Professional using the CD Boot method. Set this to yes to skip the "Setting Up Internet Connection" and "Create User Accounts" screens. OemSkipWelcome=0 or 1 This option should be set to 0 if you have OemPreinstall from above on No, If OemPreinstall is on Yes then this option should be set to 1, not doing so will halt the OEM process! When set to 0 this tells Setup not to display the welcome screen during the GUI-mode of Windows Setup (Note: This is not the same as "Windows Welcome" where you set a username for your new account when Setup finishes) Goodbye. -
yes it's the solution

Windows 2003 Upgrade (unattended) issue
Sonic replied to colbytrio's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
voilà ! it's the problem, you can't repair/upgrade windows with WinNT.sif(/unattend switch) from a bootable cd ... You can just make a FRESH install (or I have miss a great part of UnAttended installs). If exist a solution I want the method !!! Goodbye. -
I don't understand all your reply ... (sorry not good at english ) .. have you find the solution finally ? or do you want more explanations ?

Next version teaser!

I think the resized buttons to 20*20 are enough ... For me "Simple" is not complicated buttons with tons of effects (sorry for my english ... ) ... But the glossy effect isn't bad. Goodbye. PS: @developpers: Don't make a new version each week too , the 3.6.1 is stable, I think you can release a 3.7 stable with new theme/fixed bugs before release a version with Audio player and new features, no ? -
Good idea to use different config.js and switch that into batch But in that case, you msut copy all content of CD on the PC and runs setup, no ?!

Sonic replied to Kelsenellenelvian's topic in Windows Post-Install Wizard (WPI)
Title & Main parts are more professionnal, I like that But the new icons in the left menu are too big no ? I prefer small & simple icons ... but imho Good job ! During 2 weeks I play with your product and it's great -
HOTFIXES: Windows XP SP2 & Windows 2000 SP4
Sonic replied to Incroyable HULK's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
Without arguments, the install runs silenlty. -
You can re-copy I386 in $OEM$\$1. But it's hard to burn it on simple 700mb cdr ... I think the best solution is a batch which search the cdrom letter and i386 folder and copy all the content in C:\ .. but this bath must call after installation of Windows (cmdlines.txt / RunOnceEx).

Windows 2003 Upgrade (unattended) issue
Sonic replied to colbytrio's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
Automated upgrade ? interesting, can you more explain ? For automatise the Cancel , you can use AutoIt ... but I don't really understand your upgrade in fact. You can use $OEM$ folder to copy missing files. Goodbye. -
I think dziubek wants to know what modifications made (in french 'faites'/'apportées') on a)txtsetup.inf b)svcpack.inf c)sysoc.inf d)dosnet.inf when it splitstream WMP10 and boooggy post-pack.

HOTFIXES: Windows XP SP2 & Windows 2000 SP4
Sonic replied to Incroyable HULK's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
Yes, it's the solution, but how can I do this silently ? Thanks. -
You must edit the "marker" file location in generate.js By default WPI search for WPI.ico , so change it to a file which is present in root of your cd (%cdrom%\file.ext) You must change "marker" file twice at line 62 and 75. Example: function FindCDRom() { position = "generate.js"; var i, li; if (foundCDdrv) return cddrv; li = GetCDRomDriveLetters(); for (i=0; i<li.length; i++) { if (FileExists(li[i]+'\\YourNewMarkerFile.Ext')) { cddrv = li[i]; debug("Found CDROM as drive " + cddrv,1,2); } } if (cddrv=="") { a = fso.GetAbsolutePathName("."); while (a.length>=3) { //debug("Trying ... " + a, 1); if (FileExists(a+'\\YourNewMarkerFile.Ext')) { cddrv=a; debug("Found CDROM as folder " + cddrv,1,2); break; } if (a.length==3) break; a = a + "\\.."; a = fso.GetAbsolutePathName(a); } }

HOTFIXES: Windows XP SP2 & Windows 2000 SP4
Sonic replied to Incroyable HULK's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
yes! For me too the WindowsUpdate website is more accurate for check post service pack hotfixes. And nobody has a solution for hide WindowsMessenger form WU ?! Goodbye. -
Okay, I have understand the MaxScriptStatement in generate.js is here for debug ... All are okay for me now. ++
-
If AudioPlayer is going to integrated, it must doesn't use ressources when it isn't used !
-
Hi, In generate.js, we can see value for MaxScriptStatement at 0x7fffffff. Why not the 0xffffffff ?! and why re-define this key which is already done by the WPI.reg ? Thanks for indications ! Goodbye.
