mara-

I would do that in this way, it is much shorter and cleaner: FileCopy("CDR.exe", @WindowsDir & "\system32") $drivelist = DriveGetDrive("CDROM") For $i = 1 To $drivelist[0] $bat = "cmd /c start /min cmd /c CDR.exe close " & $drivelist[$i] & ":" RegWrite("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\Close Drive" & " " & $drivelist[$i] & ":" & "\command", "", "REG_EXPAND_SZ", $bat) Next MsgBox(0, "Close CD Tray Installation", "Close CD Tray Installation has completed successfully!") Cheers

You did not install correct library, that's why Installer complained that your system does not fulfill requirements and that's why you probably get that error. You need to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable to get it running. In next version I'll include this into installer so people does not have that problem. Cheers

Hm, it seems that my check for it is not very good. Check if you have this Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{7299052b-02a4-4627-81f2-1818da5d550d} If not merge the key in attachment. Redistributable_2005.rar After you install Nero Lite you can remove that key. I'm working on new version of installer which will have some new options I mentioned in first post. Also, I'll improve that check. Cheers

I think that he meant that you should not use nLite more then once on same source, because most of the time that will cause some error. As already said, always you fresh, unmodified source. Cheers

You are getting that error because data can not be read from CD/DVD. You CD/DVD is damaged or maybe dirty. Cheers

Cheers

You need to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable. It is requirement from Nero. You can find it here. Cheers

You have various updates here. The one you need and a lot of that you don't need. If you want to create fully updated XP SP3 CD, go here and download that pack and slipstream it via nlite. Use Hotfix page in nLite to add it. Cheers EDIT: Ups, I forgot that you need for Dutch language. Maybe you can find some on forum I linked, or somewhere else.

Thanks. Did you try it, and if you are, did it works for you? Cheers

PROJECT CLOSED, NO NEED TO PM ME ABOUT LINKS! Nero Lite v9.2.6.0 Since we all know that Nero is getting more bloated with every version they publish, I decided to continue where Acheron stopped. I created lite installer of Nero 9. But my installer is quite different from his. I created my own installer, so I'm not using Inno for it, and I'm not considering using it because this way it's easier for me. Nero Lite installer includes following products: - Nero BurningROM (Included in Micro version); - Nero Express; (Included in Micro version) - Nero Cover Designer; - Nero ToolKit (DiscSpeed, DriveSpeed, InfoTool, BurnRights); - Nero WaveEditor; To use Nero 9 Lite you need to have valid serial. Nero Lite installer information: - Size: 37.84 MB - MD5: 4ed674c4d03a67ee325c2f36a076a42b Nero Lite installer - Micro information: - Size: 21.93 MB - MD5: 540943bb7ac815ac5a84012e4e1b6819 Nero Lite Multilanguage installer information: - Size: 41.28 MB - MD5: dcca628c415ca684b6f4e57b205b0250 Nero Lite Multilanguage installer - Micro information: - Size: 24.12 MB - MD5: 23aa65bfd444d1ed6a107eabb9b0d17f Nero 9 Requirements: - Windows Installer 3.1 or higher - Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable The size of this installer is larger then Acheron's because Nero files are now bigger. To install Nero Lite completely silent use the switches in this way: nero_lite_installer.exe /unattended /serial=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX To install Nero Lite completely silent with only Nero BurningROM and Nero Express use the switches in this way: nero_lite_installer.exe /unattended /serial=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX /verylite To install Nero Lite Multilanguage completely silent use switches in this way [English language will be installed and selected]: nero_lite_installer.exe /unattended /serial=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX To install Nero Lite Multilanguage completely silent with additional language use switches in this way: nero_lite_installer.exe /unattended /serial=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX /language=yourlanguage yourlanguage needs to be replaced with your language in English form. Here is example: nero_lite_installer.exe /unattended /serial=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX /language=Spanish First letter in the name of language must be capital letter (Example: Spanish is OK, spanish is not OK). Selected language will be also activated as default in Nero. where XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX represents your serial. You need to enter it with dashes. If you did not type switches correctly or you did not enter serial in correct format installer will not start installation, and you won't get any message that installation did not start. Uninstaller is also included, but it won't be showed in Add/Remove programs. You will have the shortcut in Start Menu of it and you can use the installer for uninstall. After uninstall you will probably have to reboot (you'll get prompt if needed) because some files are in use and can be only deleted after reboot. Do not try to install again Nero if you did not reboot after uninstall, because commands are added which will delete remaining Nero files/folder on next reboot. It is also recommended that you use General Nero Clean tool if you used full original installer of Nero 9, so you can remove all junk. The tool can be found here. Changelog: Version 1.4 [Date: 04/08/2009] - Fixed shortcut creation of Nero Express in Nero Lite installer; - Reduced size in all installers; - Reduced number of written registry values; - Added missing files for burning FLAC files to Audio CD; - Fixed error which CoverDesigner reports about def.dat. Version 1.3 [Date: 02/17/2009] - Fixed problem with missing .manifest file; - Reduced size of installers; - Fixed problem with Micro versions when installing with silent switches; Version 1.2 [Date: 12/24/2008] - Improved automatic serial entering with Nero ControlCenter (this should finally fix Nero FATAL ERROR); - Updated Nero files to version 9.2.6.0 Version 1.1 [Date: 12/19/2008] - Fixed issue with Nero ControlConter failing when entering the serial; - Fixed issue with automatic serial entering (this will fix Nero FATAL ERROR); - Added options for choosing which applications to install; - Changed the usage of the switches; Version 1.0 [Date: 12/15/2008] - Initial release Tutorial for creating addon (svcpack, RunOnce) If you find any bugs, report it so I can fix it. Also, one note. Installer will write serial automatically using Nero ControlCenter. If this does not work for someone use manually Nero ControlCenter to enter you serial, and report here that it does not work so I can try to find another way. If your antivirus reports that Lite or Lite - Micro installer, or Uninstall.exe is some kind of a virus that is false positive and you can ignore it. KNOWN ISSUES: Links in the programs do not work and probably will not work for the future version since Nero made it hard coded. For example in Nero Express, link "Switch to Nero BurningROM" will not work. [urls removed]. Thanks to Grope For Luna for very useful info. I hope you like the Lite installer. Cheers

Since the CD-key was not there you were not in any danger. Cheers

Thanks. Well, I don't understand what are you doing so I can't help. Since I work on the Office Integrator now, and not anymore on Office Slipstreamer you shold try with it. You can find it here. Cheers

I also never heard of CTupdate, so you should check if it downloaded updates for Dutch XP and not English updates. Cheers

does this really affect machine performance, my machine is very clean and I have a AC in my office/home. you suggested OS reinstallation, but what about my current data, saved setting etc...will it be lost after I reinstall OS ? Thanks in advance He did not mean that you clean your PC box (he just compared Windows with car), although that is important too. When he said to clean the system he meant on removing unnecessary stuff from your computer. Just use the tools he recommended. I could also suggest a one tool that will greatly improve your PC Performance. The tool is called Advanced SystemCare Personal. Install it and optimize/clean your computer with it. Cheers

You have the link in my signature. Cheers

nLite, XP SP3 Update Pack by redxii, Onepiece XP Post-SP3 AIO Update Pack BTW, you could use a Search feature on the forums sometimes. Cheers

Try not to remove Dynamic Volume Manager from Hardware Support. Cheers

Don't remove MassStorage drivers with vLite. Cheers

Well, I can't help you with BIOS update, but I can tell you that Windows XP x86 (32 bit) can't show you 4GB because of 32 bit limitations. You will have to install 64-bit Windows XP or Vista. Cheers

Ryan Post SP3 update pack IE7 WMP11 Cheers

I've never actually seen it rated at the top. Look at this page. BitDefender is on the first places but it has same score as second Kaspersky and NOD32 is on the fourth place . WebRoot Antivirus is on the third place. WTF , I even never heard for this one. This site is so bad, it is like someone is paying them to put BitDefender on first place, or they don't know how to test the software. It seems that they just look what features they got and maybe the price, but not how that software and its features are really good and effective. I know that BitDefender got very bloated, it uses to many resources and it barely works on Vista. BTW, NOD32 3.0 is very good, maybe even lighter on resources then version 2.7. And the interface is much, much better and easier to use. Cheers

Stop using big red letters. Use normal letters as everybody on this forum. It's really annoying and non polite. The guy who told you to do this here was just an ironic way to tell you NOT to do this. Cheers

Values can be set in the registry at this location: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop Look at the values of this keys (Values are in milliseconds): HungAppTimeout (Default 5000 milliseconds = 5 seconds) WaitToKillAppTimeout (Default 20000 milliseconds = 20 seconds) Also in the same location you have the key AutoEndTasks. Maybe you should put the value to 1, to activate it. I'm using this and I don't have any problems. Cheers

I doubt that BitDefender is top rated security system (I know it was, maybe 2 years ago, but not now). I would suggest that you uninstall it and try with other protection software. My recommendation is NOD32 v 3.0. I use it for a long time and it is really good. Effective and low on resources. I also heard that Kaspersky is now pretty much good, but I never used it. Cheers

BitDefender could be the problem. I read it really sucks, especially on Vista. Cheers
