I think there's no solution on forums for that app. I suggest you extract the main exe with WinRAR. Then, you use a script to run Setup.exe followed by some taskkills.

Actually, there were more than three threads for this purpose.

Execuse me! I updated all batch instances with some new changes. It's now much simpler. My previous post was updated, too.

The solution is: 1- increase sleep time to 60 seconds. 2- add one more "down" for Internet Connection, like this: WScript.Sleep(500); WshShell.SendKeys ("{DOWN}"); I've already updated the first post for the extra "down". 3- inside the JS, increase the first sleep time from 2000 to 5000. I developed the batch method and tested it: This updated batch didn't work under RunOnceEX! But it worked when imported as a batch (winamp.cmd). On page 2 (1st post), you'd find a description of that. EDIT: Oh! I updated this post after you've posted. Sorry!

hmmm... let me give it another test, myself.

Download this TweakUI. It's repackaged for silent installation: http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/applications/powertoys.htm For PM8.0, there's a setup.iss on this forum. Search for it.

Please, don't change it. At least, I haven't tested that. EDIT: Now, yes! Use this inside the JS: %systemdrive%\\Install\\Winamp\\winamp.exe

Your first post has a few errors.And your corrections are wrong because these lines won't be written to winamp.ini: echo IsFirstInst=0>>%systemroot%\winamp.ini echo NeedReg=0>>%systemroot%\winamp.ini Try it, too. No. Please, leave it there.

yeah ... I think prathapml didn't try it himself. Or he might read complaints somewhere, so he decided to talk in confirmation tone. However, I tested everything several times before posting. And I wish if prathapml could post his feedback after he tries it himself.

Hi bonedaddy! This is the first time in my life to use or even type something related to RunOnceEX. From CD, it should work. Why not? I tested RunOnceEX three times to make sure that pre-importing of regname and regkey does not affect installation. It's worthful to try it from CD. And let me know, so I can benefit, too. Thanks a million for your feedback.

Using RunOnceEX: [Yes, without /fs and with a single double-quote! ] Dedicated to neo_3333 and bonedaddy and who ever uses it. CMD windows appear, so you can use some utility to hide CMD windows.

Well! I never saw that post. I have had the MUF document for two years now. And I got that idea from there. Plus, winamp.ini works this way. You probably haven't tried it. I won't change it because it works. I even tested it under RunOnceEX method and it worked, too. I'll post it soon for peolpe who are interested. I'll just have my dinner. Thanks alot and you're welcome. AND THE KEY WORKS THIS WAY, TOO. Try it.

It's already included in winamp.cmd, so you don't need to include it again in any other place. However, under RunOnceEx method, it could be "sleep 60" /f assuming you've put sleep.exe in your system32 folder or even in Windows folder. Both work. Please be aware of these lines inside the batch: echo [WinampReg]>%systemroot%\winamp.ini echo IsFirstInst=>>%systemroot%\winamp.ini echo NeedReg=>>%systemroot%\winamp.ini They create another winamp.ini inside your Windows folder.

Echolomax Just One Last Dance ... Before We Say Goodbye ... You typed some hex values for colors in your batch, but you didn't make use of them. If you apply them, you'll have a nice batch.

I don't know wether there's a register.reg for WinRAR. There are two files for WinRAR: - rarreg.key (for registration key) - Settings.reg (for pre-configuration) You may need to read this: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...ndpost&p=107770 For Office 2003, you may need to read this: http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/office2003.htm

Execuse me, I didn't try it. You can give it a try and see what happens. However, you should keep the same conditions as in the batch. If I were to use the RunOnceEx method, I'd do the following: 1- Create winamp.cmd containing the same contents of the batch from the first post. 2- Create winamp.js but increase the first sleep time from 2000 to 5000. 3- Clean winamp.ini by deleting any entries that refer to paths or directories like cwd=C:\Program Files\Winamp, for example. 4- Then, I put these files in this directory: %systemdrive%\Install\Winamp\ - winamp.exe - winamp.js - winamp.ini - winamp.cmd 5- Next, I add these lines to my RunOnceEx.cmd: Actually, I don't use RunOnceEx method. If you are familiar with inf files that are used in conjunction with RunOnceEx method, then you know how to adapt the whole process. I hope this helps.

Thanks, bonedaddy. Cheers!

Echolomax Good work. You're receiving much comment and it's valuable. Making the first unattended CD successfully is not such an easy work. Well done.

You can use it with any app. The setup screens are your guide for needed keystrokes.

These are the same as above: del %USERSPROFILE%\Bureau\*.lnk del %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Bureau\*.lnk And there are other places you can delete shortcuts from, if you wish. Pardon! Why do you use cd..?

I had HP before and threw it out for no money because something called IC was corrupted. I bought EPSON Stylus Color 660, the never-idle printer! It's worked for more than five years so far. Plus, its ink is the cheapest nowadays. I have the software driver that works under XP, actually NT. I used WinDriver Ghost to gather the needed files. I put those files on my unattended XP CD, and it installed just fine. So, I suggest you check wether your driver is compatible with XP.

This reg key is new in version 10, isn't it? Thanks for the info.

Thanks, Nologic.

-< Winamp is no problem anymore! >- Update 1: PDF tutorial for v5.03c and similar versions. Right-click and "Save Target As...". Update 2: PDF tutorial for v2.91 and similar versions. Right-click and "Save Target As...". Update 3: Some antivirus programs disallow running scripts. So, you should run scripts before installting antivirus programs. Update 4: Should you ever get any problem, read through the following posts. You should find an answer to your question. Update 5: winamp.js is now commented. Keeping comments makes no problem. Update 6: Batch method is now much more simple. No sleep.exe! No taskkill! Update 7: Installing Winamp from %systemdrive% using RunOnceEX. Update 8: Installing Winamp from %CDROM% using RunOnceEX. By bonedaddy. Finally, we can exclude features and sub-features we don't want installed!!! This JavaScript file works for any version of Winamp, as we will see. But, the example here is for Winamp 5.03a. These are the steps Put the following files in this directory: %systemdrive%\Install\Winamp\ If your source path is different, then change those in purple inside the batch. On your unattended CD, this path is $OEM$\$1\Install\Winamp\, of course. - winamp.exe --> your installer renamed for simplicity - winamp.js --> explained below - winamp.ini --> customized, from C:\Program Files\Winamp\winamp.ini Clean winamp.ini by deleting any entries that refer to paths or directories like cwd=C:\Program Files\Winamp, for example. Sleep time of 60 seconds might vary according to the features installed. However, it's sufficient if you install all features. You can test it before burning to your CD. Of course, you're assumed to have sleep.exe in your system32 folder. On your unattended CD, you put it here: $OEM$\$$\System32\sleep.exe If you exclude Winamp Agent from installation, do not add taskkill /F /IM winampa.exe to your batch. If your regname has spaces, consider adding quotes. This is an example: "Your Name". Replace the Xs with your regkey. Dashes are included, if any. You do not have to create a reg file to register Winamp for the Pro version. Your registration data is included in the batch as you saw. However, if you don't want to register for the Pro version, consider deleting the last three lines from the batch above. Sleep time of 500 (1/2 second) is not obligatory, unless you like watching , like me. You can use 200, or more or less. Keystroke legend: Use ("{ENTER}") for hitting Next and Install buttons. Use ("{TAB}") for browsing controls of setup screens. Use ("{DOWN}") for pressing the down arrow on your keyboard. Use (" ") for deselecting a feature. Use ("%{RIGHT}") for expanding a main feature into its sub-features. Now, you see that the JS file above exclude these features: - Winamp Agent - Modern Skin Support - AVI/MPG/ASF - Desktop Icon Also, it sets Internet Connection to "Not connected to the Internet". Oh! Yes, you can modify the JS to fit your needs with the help of PDF tutorial.

This is the same method tippy refered to. But, as I guess, now2ai8 wanted to use the simple method to save about 300mb on his CD, added by adm inst point. I wish my guess is correct! ; )
