Hi There, I'm not fully sure about this, but i think the code must be an * for your password. AdminPassword=* If you don't want to trie it, wait for others to respond. Greetz

Hi, I'd like to know how you install ie7 via svcpack.inf. I tried it but it just skipped the file. Please reply.

Thanks for the tips guy's. It's almost weekend so i'll not get this done in time. But to answer your question: REG ADD %KEY%\030 /V 4 /D "%WINDIR%\system32\xcopy /C /V /Q /Y /I %CDROM%\Apps\AcrobatReader\*.* \"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Setup Files\RdrBig708\ENU"\" /f Should be: REG ADD %KEY%\030 /V 4 /D "%WINDIR%\system32\xcopy /C /V /Q /Y /I %CDROM%\Apps\AcrobatReader\*.* \"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Setup Files\RdrBig708\ENU\"" /f right? But yours is more confusing: REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx\001 /V 1 /D "%~d0\PROGRAMS\DOTNETFX.EXE/Q /C:\"INSTALL.EXE /Q\"" /F And by the way, what's the %~d0 in heavens name? :S I would guess it would be: REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx\001 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\PROGRAMS\DOTNETFX.EXE /Q \"C:\"INSTALL.EXE /Q\"" /F Do i'm not sure what you mean by /Q and why it turns into install.exe Just wondering Greetz

Hey TheCrowX Try this sequence, maybe windows got distracted. [GuiUnattended] AdminPassword="Kulis" EncryptedAdminPassword=NO AutoLogon=Yes AutoLogonCount=1 OemSkipWelcome=1 OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=110 Greetz

Hi There, I want to use the copy and xcopy command in RunOnceEx.cmd. Furthermore I want to use del in RunOnceEx.cmd And I want to use the REG ADD "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop" /v ScreenSaveTimeOut /t REG_SZ /d 1800 /F in RunOnceEx.cmd And I want to use Net localgroup Administrators /add "EU\Domain Admins in RunOnceEx.cmd Maybe the most important thing i need to know is how to use the double quotation marks. It's my understanding that when putting 4 "" "" in RunOnceEx the command you give regedit don't understand. I tried several times, but it's killing me. Who can help me out with this? Greetz

This is how I installed the updates that (damned) won't install through svcpack.inf (my favorite). cmdow @ /HID @Echo OFF FOR %%i IN (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%i:\win51ip.SP2 SET CDROM=%%i: SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "Installing Applications" /f REG ADD %KEY%\005 /VE /D "Update Windows Media" /f REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\i386\SVCPACK\KB917734.exe /passive /norestart" /f REG ADD %KEY%\015 /VE /D "Internet Explorer 7" /f REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\IE7\IE7.exe /passive /update-no /norestart" /f So it installs itself fine. But the first time i get into windows internet explorer 6 is still there. When starting ie it's still version 6. Not that I don't mind, cause on a reboot (I log on once automatic) internet explorer 7 does work en want's to configure itself. The only thing that sucks is that quick launch and start > programs > display's the icon of internet explorer 6. I like some help with that. I also noticed by going to the \Software\IE7\IE7.exe /? I get an option list of install switches. I'm just saying this because i do not hear often this advice to people on switches. My point is that I still have to test the /quiet mode and without the /update-no switch. And by the way I got ie7.exe out of the automatic updates folders of C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download. You get about a 30 seconds chance to grab the file.

Well that did the trick allright. Thanks for your help. I appriciate it. Greetz, The_Dude_1978

Well thanks Ctrl-X and oioldman It worked like a charm. Finally and i'm glad. Just hope you can help me out with one more thing. Everything installs okay except the windows installer 3.1. It's the KB893803.exe that does'nt install. What am i doing wrong? Greetz, The_Dude_1978

Hi There, Why i did make other changes? You mean in dosnet.inf? Well to shorten my xpcd down in mb i deleted some maps like components, tabletpc etc. Therefore the reference of directories dosnet.inf searches in like d1, d2 and d3 (directory 1,2 and 3) are unneccesary to be loaded into memory. If there could be a error I made sure it does'nt popup. As for the svcpack.inf it bothered me that KB890830.exe was giving a popup for extraction. So I helped windows a hand by adding this command "/extract:%windir%\system32\inetsrv\ /q" and it does work. But there was no manner testing it without the hotfixes installing. Greetz, The_Dude_1978

Sometimes you just can't see past things. This is just the eye opener i need. Stupid of me i did not see that, but your help is appriciated. I'll get back to you in 2 hours. Thanks

Hi There, me dutch here. I hope somebody understands where i'm going wrong. The hotfixes dont'install. I've been working on 2 automated installations of xp corperate. One dutch and one English. The Dutch one works. The English one does not. I have an orginal cd with sp2 kopied to the network hard drive at my work. Therefor i need an easy installation, definetly not nlite based! For future processes. I deleted all unnessecary maps like lang, 98upgrade components etc. I also removed the d2, d3 and d3 at the directories in dosnet inf. I made an map in i386 called svcpack and placed the updates in it.

Hi There, If you don't mind me saying, is'nt the switch supposed to be /Q /O /N /Z ? I got the hotfixes off the site where they put the win2000, winxp and win2003 server. And that's were it went wrong with me too. I'm just figuring out howecome the wininstaller 3.1 bugs my sequence of hotfixes to install.
