Use a resource hacker to change the icon in the 1st position within the main executable file before packaging it. shark.

This proccess still doesnt read the info from conf.txt It does do a complete installation. your 2 files (in red) are direct copies of the msi and the (local)mst file. It also still reboots after an install. No new info here. shark

Very nice boooggy. simple, concise, and easy to follow. Appreciated. shark

Many people use Media Player Classic. I have for years. Its my player of choice. The commandline feature to register file associations has always been a bit of a problem (for me) because it would associate commom txt files to it for some reason. here is a fix to this small problem via a regtweak which should be loaded AFTER you use the /regvid command. Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\txtfile\shell] "mplayerc.exe.bak"=- @="open" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\txtfile\shell\open\command] @="notepad.exe %1" "mplayerc.exe.bak"=- shark

This isnt required to solve the problem. yes, they are there, but wont cause an error if left there. shark

Edit TXTSETUP.SIF (use notepad) Find these files within txtsetup.sif and remove references to them. shark.

Your 2 examples presented would produce identicle results for each of the 4 items you listed. The only possible reason i can think of for 'hearts=off' to not have worked would be that you didnt place it under the appropriate section. It should be listed as follows: [components] hearts=off for your conveniance i attached a full listing of items that can be placed under the components section. shark

kelsenellenelvian seems a bit tired, %allusers% wont get you anywhere. I changed your commands slightly. My start menu is modified, so i dont knw the default locations. Hopefully, you can work from this, and get what you need done. DEL /F /Q "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\Default User\Start Menu\Programs\Windows Media Player.lnk" DEL /F /Q "%UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Outlook Express.lnk" MOVE /Y "%UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Internet Explorer.lnk" "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\" MOVE /Y "%UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Windows Media Player.lnk" "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\" RD /S /Q "%AllUsersProfile%\Documents\My Music\Sample Playlists" RD /S /Q "%AllUsersProfile%\Documents\My Music\Sync Playlists" shark

Detailed instructions are found here.... Mscfgtlc.xml file format just have to read a bit.. tested .. works fine. shark

Tablet PC is very similar to Media Center Edition in its installation process. You MUST use the Tablet PC key to get it installed. EDIT: [There is no corporate version of Tablet PC.] seems the above statement is incorrect. Using any other key (or modification to the files) will at best, install XP Pro. shark

If you install Frontpage 1st, before any other office apps it WILL be the default editor. shark

If you have WinRAR or 7-zip installed, either of these application will extract the files from the shrunken office package. shark

Yep. Its no different to Shrink than SP1. I only use word and excel and my shrunken installer. ... for SP1 it was 38.1meg. installation ... for SP2 it weighs in @ 37.2meg shark

Solved this small issue on my own. It was simply a matter of extracting the files from the cab, placing them into C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\ installing the inf's and running regsvr32 on appropriate dll/ocx. This doesnt work for all activeX control modules. I also found that i needed to do a registry capture to make the activeX controls work properly without reinstallation. shark

I gave your program a go. It wasnt successful. Hera are the 4 activeX controls i tested it with. msn_messenger_addon_1 msn_messenger_addon_2 MSNzone_games_1 MSNzone_games_2 BTW, your program completely rebuilt my driver.cab file for no reason. 4769 files before rebuild, same after .. none of the files in the cabs were added. It was already rebuilt once by the RVM integrator to add files and use max compression. Just thought i'd help ya bugfix since you had me try it. shark

On a clean install of windows, a couple of websites i visit require the installation of an activeX control. the activeX control (after installation) can be found in C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\ Right clicking the installed control and choosing properties will open on the general TAB and at the bottom is Codebase: The CodeBase is a web adress to a *.cab file containing the activeX control. This address can be copied, and the cab file downloaded. Anyone know how to install the activeX control from this cab file? I'd like to add this to my uA media if i can figure out how to get them installed. shark

see this post Here shark

it works as stated. thanks. Any idea how to stop the reboot? shark

I haven't figured out a silent install for this but while testing the appllication, i found there is no easy way to disable a 'feature' refered to as 'Nero Scout'. The following command will disble and remove the nero scout folder: regsvr32 /u /s "%CommonProgramFiles%\Ahead\Lib\MediaLibraryNSE.dll" EDIT - added quotation marks to the path\filename because it failed for some. shark.

To change the type of XP eg. SEL / VOL / OEM / RETAIL the following files are the ones that determine the type: EDIT . . . the EULA.TXT is different for each also but it isnt a required file in determining the type of XP. shark

The updated INF file is also needed. swflash.inf After installing flash8 you can get it from the INF dir or use the one i attached here. you may need to edit the paths in the INF eg. %11%\Macromed\Flash\Flash8.ocx to reflect the renaming and location you are using shark

It executes 'setup.exe' within the DOTNETFX folder in the root of the Windows XP installation media. shark

I've recently experienced this also. I think nlite B6 is at fault. shark.

I did some further testing of this... Simply setup MSN Messenger (v7.5.0299) as you wish it ... export the key: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger] and import it into your uA media. ...and all will be as it was, for the users and passports setup at the time the key was exported. Even with it setup as you wish, any new user/passport logging in still would get default settings. (eg, msn today window popup. tabs showing, etc) By exporting this key, and importing it into the uA installation you personally, will have ALL your settings as you like them. ( no popup window, no tabs displayed, etc) EDIT: sept 3, 2005 - CAUTION: the above method WILL also include your current email address(s) [and possibly the password - not verified] removing the following 2 entries under "PerPassportSettings" will fix this: DefaultMemberName DefaultIdentityMigrated shark

I have an ASUS motherboard and there is a BIOS setting for this. I turn on my computer via <spacebar> shark
