Thanks Tyke, that method did the trick! I got the devcon file from MS site and the .inf monitor file had the internal model name of the monitor. So I ended adding this to my cleanup.cmd (the start /wait is probably overkill for that but...): start /wait %CDROM%\Apps\devcon update "%CDROM%\Apps\Hitachi_50v500.inf" "Monitor\HTCD7A6" I tried the bonedaddy/Cydine method but it did not work in my case. Can you be a bit more specific in how to apply devcon to this process? Thanks

HOTFIXES: Windows XP SP2 & Windows 2000 SP4
Sgt_Strider replied to Incroyable HULK's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
Not a chance. First off, no time. Second, I don't care about other OSes other than XP SP2. Sorry, I just don't. Fair enough, just giving you a hard time me too, I only care about XP SP2 -
Wow, I'm surprised no one has managed to solve my problem installing the LG Flatron 915 FT Plus driver.

HOTFIXES: Windows XP SP2 & Windows 2000 SP4
Sgt_Strider replied to Incroyable HULK's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
There are more, the starter just hasn't gotten around to adding them yet. (kind of ironic given why this thread was started ) lol, have you consider doing it yourself? -
HOTFIXES: Windows XP SP2 & Windows 2000 SP4
Sgt_Strider replied to Incroyable HULK's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
How come on the first page, there are only two updates for SP2? I thought Microsoft released more patches than that after SP2? -
Please see the devcon command described above.As for my own adventure: I did see that when I used the drivers on the floppy-disk that came with my Samsung monitor, it did install that one unattended. But what use is this: SyncMaster 703(M)s/ 753(M)s/750(M)s/753(M)v, MagicSyncMaster CM173A(M)Ha ha.... That's what the INF contained, and that's what the monitor name in display properties showed up as. So I changed the monitor name in the INF to have the name of my monitor alone, and not the entire product segment. But, as is obvious, that broke driver signature, and the .CAT of the driver could not validate it anymore. Installing it manually works now, with a dialog about non-WHQL driver, but unattended has been no go. Other than that, I have a few things that I'm yet to try out myself. So the below is untested ideas: Maybe deleting monitor.inf and replacing it with your own monitor's INF file - and if it contains associated DLLs/ICMs you need to have it copied over to the system as well (txtsetup.sif). Or... disabling driver signing. Or... Make your own INF and your own .CAT (this one is highly improbable, I think). Have you tried it yet?

Whenever I add a link to my favourite folders, I usually get an icon next to the link. However, after a while, the icon will disappear and a IE icon will appear instead. Why does this happen? Is there a way to prevent IE from deleting the original icon and use the IE icon? thx

Just wondering has anything changed regarding installing a monitor driver unattended? Thx

Hi jrzycrim, I'm not sure what you mean by the drive with the broken installation, but C: is the drive that windows is installed on. I see ntldr, ntdetect.com and boot.ini files in the C:\ directory.

My brother's computer can't boot up to the desktop
Sgt_Strider replied to Sgt_Strider's topic in Windows XP
Hi jrzmycrim, is there anything that I can do with BartPE that will allow me to send the files across the network? Also, maybe I can manually replace the ntldr file there and hope that it'll work? What can I do with bartPE that will allow me to fix windows? Thx -

Sgt_Strider replied to Sgt_Strider's topic in Windows XP
Hi xtrememac, I just used bartpe and managed to boot up the cd and view the content of the hard drive. All the files are still there and I did a scandisk and it was a successful one with no errors. How do I manually copy the ntldr file to the windows xp installation? Any idea guys? -

I have a anti-virus in the computer and it's using the latest definitions up to that date. Yes the hard drive is formatted with the ntfs filesystem and how do I make a winpe? -

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...kb;EN-US;315341 Thx for the information jrzycrim. However, it still doesn't work. After the upgrade completed, I still get the ntldr file is missing error. I don't understand what is going on. This is driving me crazy. -

So xtrememac, the EULA screen is suppose to pop up before it ask you whether to repair windows or new installation of windows, right? -

My brother's computer can't boot up to the desktop
Sgt_Strider replied to Sgt_Strider's topic in Windows XP
Guys, I can't even go to the desktop to try any utilities and the recovery console isn't working for me. I entered the commands that jrzycrim suggested and it still doesn't work, despite the message telling me that it copied successfully. I typed exit to exit the console and the ntldr is missing message pops up. I don't want to format the computer because there are very important files on the hard drive... -

Hey man, I just tried the commands that you listed and it still doesn't work. It said files were copied successfully and yet, I still get the ntldr file is missing error message. What else can I do? -
