Oops! I think your "cleanup.cmd" just ran on my PC cumminbk. Gotta be more careful what I click on. Just curious, but what exactly do you "clean" when you run a clean-up batch? I thought windows setup automatically removes all the temps and garbage when its done.

I'm new to this but am proud of my batch file that runs with no errors. I know there are better one's out there so post'em!. Comodo and Kremlin are Autoit's.

XPsp2 unattended install, mostly nLite. Nonclassic start panel but classic Windows theme. In nLite (latest ver) I choose the tweak to not have the start panel open on first boot but it does anyway. Do I need to add my own reg tweak at GuiRunOnce to make it not open?

After integrating service pack, hotfixes, drivers and making the needed changes with nLite I quit the program and get the file "winnt.sif" from the modified i386 folder. I add this line: [GuiRunOnce] %systemdrive%\Install\start.cmd That makes setup look in the $OEM$\$1\Install folder for my "start.cmd" batch file and that is also where my NOD32 installer is. In the batch file i put these entries: echo. echo Installing NOD32 Antivirus echo Please wait... start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\NOD32\setup.exe /silentmode echo. echo Installing NOD32 Registry Information regedit /S %systemdrive%\Install\Reg\Esetcommon.reg I add the reg tweak since I don't want the NOD32 splash screen. After adding all the stuff I want to add to GuiRunOnce I copy the ISO image from the original CD to my modified installation folder with ISObuster and burn it with Nero. link to application installation methods i used: http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/view/web/32/

Apparently it was the USB polling frequency tweak in nLite that i set to 250MHz/4ms. I have reinstalled XP, since the above post, without the USB tweak and my joystick works fine. I searched and found an app to tweak the USB polling frequency and applied it in safe mode and rebooted. As before, the joystick wouldn't work but it was recognized and the device manager reported no problems. Untweaked it and it works. Might sticky something to that effect if others have USB game device problems and applied the tweak... I suppose the tweak was originally intended for the USB mouse but i'm a hardcore PS2, trackball, GE, $4.99 mouse user after having tried some bug ridden fancier types.

Thanks, I like that nircmd, I think that'll do the trick. Do I just put nircmd.exe in the $$ folder or would you put it in $$\system32 folder? I put my WPA.DBL file in $$\system32 folder but it doesn't work. I still have to call MS to activate since I've activated too many times. I appreciate the script too but I would need to understand how it works and that would take more effort than i'm willing to put into this unattended deal at the moment.

This link is the only download link I can find and its not working. http://www.optimumx.com/download/ Is this tool archived anywhere on the forum? Can someone upload it possibly? If its the same thing as shortcut.exe for windows 95 don't bother as i have that one. Not sure if the windows 95 version is all thats available or not but I couldn't get it to work right. Could be its incompatible or my sytax was wrong but i hate putting too much time into a tool thats not the right one. I want to use on a XPsp2 unattended run from a batch at GuiRunOnce for creating desktop shortcuts to notepad, regedt32, WMP, etc... Anyone familiar with this tool or know where I can find it? Also, could you post a brief example of the syntax you used in your batch to create a shortcut?

I made an unattended CD and installed it. Windows hardware wizard asks for location to install USB hubs.I send it to an untouched version of i386 and it installs hubs. I didn't remove anything related to USB with nLite that i recall. Logitech extreame 3d pro is recognized but no input. A HP USB printer/scanner works fine. I didn't remove anything related to joysticks or USB that i know of.

Just wanted to add that I also get WFP errors. When I run it it is unable to copy files to the dll cache from the original XPsp2 CD. I want WFP to work on my unattended XPsp2. Also my Logitech Extreme 3D pro joystick does not work but is recognized. DirX9.0c, HID service(after copying hidserv.dll into sys32 folder) and USB working fine. I did nothing with nLite that indicated it would affect WFP or game controllers rendering them useless. I think removing some items with nLite have farther-reaching consequences than described in nLite's description of the item. I think nLite is really great tool. I like the way it slipstreams all those updates and drivers. I intend to be more careful about what I remove by researching the item(s) in an attempt to surmise what other effects their removal might have.

Hello, Was going to add some registry settings from my current XPsp2 installation to my unattended XPsp2 CD. I noticed some of the exported .reg files contained paths to C:\ drive. Question is, would there be a drive letter conflict if the drive I'm installing to is not C:\? Should I change any paths in the .reg files to "%systemdrive% before adding to the CD or would that really mess things up? Most of what i want to add like the hkcu explorer advanced key doesn't contain a path but some program registry settings do. I'm sure this question gets asked a lot so if its already been explained somewhere just posting a link would be fine. Thanks

I really appreciate all the trouble you went to to MHz. Thanks. I am surprised that it installed silently on your Vista VM despite the obdc error. I assume that you installed it with these switches in the same order?: start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\Lavasoft_Personal_Firewall_Setup.exe /VERYSILENT /SP- /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /NORESTART I sent an e-mail to Lavasoft and got this reply: Dear Sir/Madam Unfortunately not. It needs to be registered which cannot be automated. Kind regards, Jona, Lavasoft Support xxxxxxx@bresnan.net skrev: > I'm looking for a firewall to puchase for my company that has an > installer that can be installed silently with no user interaction. I > tried your firewall and was not able to install it silently despite > using the proper switches. Do you have a silent installer for this > firewall? It doesn't need to be registered at the time of installation (10 day trial period) and there is no message box asking to register it. I have changed firewalls to Comodo (not absolute) and am running into the same problem. This installer does ask for registration although it is free. I have downloaded the Autoit for it (see quote) but I'm not sure yet if thats what I want to do.. I think I would like to try making my own Autoit for the Lavasoft firewall even if I decide not to use it. I have no knowledge of scripting, pascal or otherwise, and it seems like it could be a legal grey area to modify an installer for a shareware program. Think I'll look around a bit and see what others are using. Thanks again for the help!

Hmm.... Coulda swore the sign on the door said Unattended Windows Discussion & Support...

Could you please specify which extensions I would need for the Inno compiler to compile the coded portion? For now, I don't plan on changing the coded portion, just want to see if any of the disable features I add to [setup] will disable the wizard and force defaults. There is an encryption module and several third-party tools (none that mention pascal scripting in their descriptions) and also there is Pascal Script 3.0 on another website.

Nope. I just tried it with the "E" included and I still get the install wizard. On the wizard is a "Next" button. All I need is something to push/activate the next button twice and then the finish button, the defaults are fine. I just may have to change firewalls and if I do lavasoft is gonna hear my rant. I'll tell them I'm a big company that was interested in purchasing a volume license but since it won't install silently...

Problem solved. In nLite under "remove components" is an option to remove "Text Services Framework", which is advanced text services. I removed it and tested the CD and no more ctfmon!
