Today I was wasting my time on a DQ965GF motherboard from Intel... I just had to write something about that! So if you feel like reading, I just opened a blog and this is one of the first article I wrote: Why does Intel Motherboard is Cr;p!

Not true, you can use the same method and techniques as Windows XP. I also suggest you add reg.exe (compressed somewhere in the tool directory of your Win2K CD) in your System32 directory so you'll be able to use RunOnceEx method just like XP... For the driver matter, maybe you should look into the Multi-Boot section of this forum.

WMP10 & Hotfix 917734
Incroyable HULK replied to Beresford's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
Well at least, you can install WPM10 wit svcpack.inf and then install KB917734 after the first reboot... it should work. -
Can you skip the product key input on install?
Incroyable HULK replied to hinkdad's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
I was just about to post the same link! I remember seeing a page on the microsoft webpage were they showed a vbscript to gracefully change the product key... anyone seen it or use it? I can't find it anymore *** EDIT *** Nevermind, I found it and it doesn't work with OEM keys, only VLK -
WMP10 & Hotfix 917734
Incroyable HULK replied to Beresford's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
I beleive you have to install WMP10 and KB917734 after the first reboot... not using svcpack.inf This is the way I do it (with RunOnceEx) and it works. -

WMP10 & Hotfix 917734

KB917734 must be installed after WMP10. Is it the case in your installation? -
After installation, windows asks for SP2 CD-Rom
Incroyable HULK replied to gpglang's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
not again! People, stop removing stuff unless you are certain they are not needed. Start by building a working installation and then gradually remove safe component... -
Why in hell do people remove stuff from Windows?
Incroyable HULK replied to Wraith's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
I agree that some feature are useless and could lead to confusion with computer noob. But the fact is that you could only remove the shortcut to the application in the Start Menu instead of removing component. Once you start removing stuff, you get a less than standard system which is prone to errors, bugs and other malfunction that wouldn't have shown if you kept the system the way it is... Anyhow, I agree that thing should be kept the simplest as possible for regular workers, friends, family. I'm sick of getting our brand new installed computer trashed in just a few days by the end user. I give them what they need to work and even more (QuickTime, DiVx Codec, Live Messenger, Etc.). Why the heck do they start installing crap as soon as they get it ... gee. -
Unable to install Windows Live Messenger
Incroyable HULK replied to Sonic's topic in Application Installs
Congratulation for not reading the topic at all. The problem we have is when you try to INSTALL FROM A MAPPED DRIVE OR A NETWORK SHARE. I ended up copying the Windows Live Messenger file from my network share to a temporary folder on the computer and deleting the file after the installation is done... -

Oh! I have the same issue (also using a french version!) Did you manage to find a simple workaround?
