- There's an option in WINNT.SIF that lets you choose a partition where you install Windows. If the partition you choose has a system, it lets you format it.

- Yes!

It's your own preference. But I wonder why Fax Service is junk! Thanks.

Off topic: It's someone's preference that they like or dislike something. But I think that they should give reasons. And giving no reasons doesn't give us the right to flame them. SVCPACK is sometimes rubbish. SAV CE, for example, installs well from there. Logging in to a user account, I get the Auto-Protect service disabled. @ PatrickEmpire InstallRite 2.5

@ monoxide I couldn't download your file. @ Cygnus There isn't a .theme file. Should I create it, myself? Also, should I install those EXEs? @ neo_matrix.rs Thanks for the news about Vista Transformation Pack 5.

I'm using IE, so I don't know about FF!

Very nice theme. But I can't decide wether both themes are the same! (monoxide's & Cygnus's)

I'm not sure if my answer is suitable to your direction, but MPClassic does this job.

Shall you post a screen shot, too, please?

Post more details about your project, so someone can help.

I'm not interested in changing the desktop wallpaper. Actually, I set Windows to use my favorite theme which has its own wallpaper. It's Royale theme, btw. I'm sorry.

I'm using SVCPACK method (T-13) to achieve this. I created appsDU.cmd and put it in SVCPACK folder. I added appsDU.cmd to SVCPACK.INF! appsDU.cmd runs my reg files I put in .\Install\Utils\ this way: start /wait REGEDIT /S %SystemDrive%\Install\Utils\tweaks1.reg start /wait REGEDIT /S %SystemDrive%\Install\Utils\tweaks2.reg start /wait REGEDIT /S %SystemDrive%\Install\Utils\tweaks3.reg and so on... You can use FOR command to get all *.reg files executed whatever their names are and how many of them are there. But using the simple approach above let's you run them in the order you want. Otherwise, use FOR command. NB: I'm not creating appsDU.cmd just for the sake of reg files. I, basically, use it to install my fav apps via SVCPACK. So, you know.

IE Favs: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?s=&showtopic=44812 There are two methods on that link.

You can use :: to comment a line in a CMD.

Probably, some essential files (for the program to run) are missing from the package.

@ elajua Did T D's suggestion help you? I'm also interested.

Is the restart process controlable by you or by the first setup?

I install it after WMP11. But, AFAIK, either order is no problem.

Easier, yet: %SystemRoot%\PDFread.exe -Register No need to regs, unless for tweaking.

I'm also interested...

1- You mean to add the switches in the "Run after extraction" field of the SFX? -Yes. 2- And where to choose that 'TempMode'? By selecting the option to extract in a Temp folder? -Yes. 3- Can't I just use the switches? -No. It won't be unattended!

Many thanks dude! I'll check it soon. I hope Windows SETUP will not throw errors to my face as it always did using my badly modified CABs.

You run PreNTFX.reg before installing .NET Framework 2.0 and PostNTFX.reg after installing it. Silent command: You can extract the EXE and create a SFX with the following arguments: Setup=install.exe /q /1033 TempMode Silent=1 Overwrite=1 Or: You can use the original EXE to install .NET Framework 2.0 by its MSI directly: dotnetfx.exe /q /c:"msiexec.exe /i netfx.msi ADDEPLOY=1 /qn" The reference for MSI idea. The reg entries were provided by GreenMachine, if I remember correctly.
