1. Get a** out of chair 2. Look behind computer 3. Count USB ports Was that hard?

I thought that was something everyone understood, but didn't say. You don't have to beat him down more on it. He has an issue, which he can't solve. Now for us to help you solve it, some things would be helpful, such as the error codes. Has this happened before under sp1 and previous? System information, etc.

An error message would be helpful. Most likely it is your activation. You will prob have to reinstall xp.

I don't mind, I consider you a contributing member, unlike most members, which is why I don't have a problem. You also made an effort to understand it, unlike most members, who just ask silly questions rather than think first. If you were one of those people, I'd say something, but your not, so its cool.

Haha. The first one references the second one. The second one references this one (by me). Which is where Coolsights2000 got all his info before taking credit for it all.

I liked christina's body before she put on the pounds. Once she died her hair, then she filled out, like most women. She does have the better voice though. If I had to choose one right now, I'd prob pass. Prob so many diseases going through both of them. In their primes, I'd be all over Christina.

The way you make the variable looks fine. I don't use setenv, but I'm sure you have the syntax correct. Your problem is how you use it later, after setting it. Windows won't recognize it. It has to be done like everyone else does it, before you put it in the registry.

If you read my post again, then you can not use %INSTALL% in RunOnceEx. I'll re-explain here. The customary way to get system variables to work in the registry is by making them REG_EXPAND_SZ. So when it sees your variable %INSTALL%, it understands it is C:\install. THAT IS THE ONLY WAY. However, RunOnceEx does not support REG_EXPAND_SZ keys with variables in them. This is why this isn't working. The only way to get it to work is by routing it through cmd, by either using cmd /c, or a batch file. What you want to do does not exist. If my explaination is to much for you, tell me what you don't understand.

Your setup.reg would be equivalent to putting netfx=yes in the winnt.sif file under components. Also for your other entries. When they get to the freestyle and others, it will fail because its not media ctr edition. The only other way I can see it working is if you modify the inf files. It goes through each of the infs anyway, check your log files in %SYSTEMROOT%. Thats why I went the route I went.

In most registry keys, to get this to work you would make it a REG_EXPAND_SZ, but runonceex does not support the REG_EXPAND_SZ type variables. So they will get skipped if it sees the %INSTALL% variable. Unfortunately this is no way around this. You could always try adding cmd /c infront of every entry so that it re-routes through cmd thus giving you the variable. Not to sure how that would reacte though, so its YMMV.

couple of things I want to say here. First off, wrong section. This wouldn't be an XPCREATE problem, more of an unattended problem. Second, learn to use the CODE tags. Don't use a START>>> >>>END, it makes things easier on us. Lastly, go back to the links gcwhite1 gave you and read them. Your problem is fixable, but you have to read. If you don't find them helpful, try the ref.chm.

Easiest way is go read her diary but seriously, just ask her. There are way to many different genres of music to know what she likes. You should know her best. If she is well rounded in her music selection, then this might be easier, but if she is focused on one thing, then we can look closer into it.

1) the search button will help here. 2) everything except bittorrent. 3) copy /?, or try xcopy /?. Generally if you are copying a file, I stick with copy, otherwise I go with xcopy.

Can't you use CMDOW.EXE to hide it?

@DisabledTrucker - Not sure about the netfxocm.inf change. You should give it a try and let us know. As for the cab files in 1.1, they are a different format than those of 1.0. They could be made similar, but that means someone would have to do it. Along with that, I'm sure the netfxocm.inf will also have to be edited, since it has all the regkeys, and locations of where the files go. If you did a SP2 slipstream, you can find the netfx.cab file on the root of the xp cd, in cmponents/dotnet folder.

haha

Did you try this guide. http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/officexp_advanced.htm This one is definately better than the 2003 one they have, and everything is pretty much the same.

I'm not sure if this is what you are referring to. http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=26917 The first post has a link to the another thread which might describe your problem. If this isn't the problem, then try to get a coherent thought into your post.

Looks like your problem is the 099 key in the files. It runs one, then calls the next one without exiting. After the restart, or something interrupts it, it deletes the key. That's why it won't load the next one. Easiest way around this is start at a high number, and for the next file, decrement. first file 099 second 098 so on...

to fix your last line, and your should be set. REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 2 /D "CMD.EXE /Q /C %SystemDrive%\Install\Applications\SuperColapse\ReColapse.exe \"%PROGRAMFILES%\supercollapse\""

if you are using COPY, add CMD.EXE /Q /C COPY PATH\TO.EXE "%PROGRAMFILES%\PROGRAM" If it is a seperate program, like xcopy, then you don't need the cmd.exe part.

I would open regedit to see if anything is in there at all. Try running the cmd file, then opening regedit to see if it is putting things in properly. You could always add REG ADD %KEY%\999 /V 03 /D "regedit.exe" /f to look at the code right after you put it in. Or maybe windows is just getting tired of running your runonceex

Nice job. I do something similar in my unattended, but it is only for Default, and all users that I do. I get around this with variables.%ALLUSERSPROFILE% will return for all users, and I set up the %DEFAULTUSERPROFILE% during setup for the default. Then I will extract the files to the proper locations, rather than store them in folders in my $DOCS folder. Saves a lot of headaches.

TweakUI has this functionality. www.googleisyourfriend.com

What you could do is run a cmd file at the end of each window. REG ADD %KEY%\999 /V 01 /D "%CDROM%\software\RunOneEx2.cmd" /f REG ADD %KEY%\999 /V 02 /D "%CDROM%\software\rundll32.exe iernonce.dll,RunOnceExProcess" /f This shouldn't even show an entry, but will still run. The first will add entries to your runonceex entry, the second will start it back up. Once an entry is run, it gets deleted. Lets say you restart after running a command. It will pick up where it left off. By keeping the number at 999, it should be significantly high that it won't be over written, and/or deleted. I've never tried running a command, and also over writing it, but it could only leave to trouble. If this doesn't work, just restart rather than run the rundll32 command.
