Incroyable HULK

Thanks! I didn't noticed this one before...

Is there a way to make a pause in RunOnceEx? EDIT: DO NOT USE THIS CODE, IT IS INTERFERING WITH OTHER PROGRAMS INSTALLERS REG ADD %KEY%\001 /VE /D "Adobe Reader 7.0" /f REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Applications\AdobeReader\AdobeReader.exe /s /v\"/qn\"" /f Pause/Wait for 1 minute... REG ADD %KEY%\002 /VE /D "Next Application" /f It doesn't take long for Adobe Reader to install once extracted...

if I launch my RunOnceEx.exe from cmdlines.txt, it doesnt' work... at least for Windows 2000 SP4. I haven't tried yet on WinXP. This is why I am launching from GuiRonOnce...

My problem is that I want to be able to Install Unattended as well as a "regular" installation from the same installer. So I must choose between: 1) 21.5MB - Lighter (original .exe) EDIT: DO NOT USE THIS CODE, IT IS INTERFERING WITH OTHER PROGRAMS INSTALLERS REG ADD %KEY%\001 /VE /D "Adobe Reader 7.0" /f REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Applications\AdobeReader\AdobeReader.exe /s /v\"/qn\"" /f BUT when the FEAD optimiser is finished and Acrobat Reader is just starting to install, RunOnceEx is moving to the next line... 2) 35.1MB - Faster (Extracted .msi and .cab) REG ADD %KEY%\001 /VE /D "Adobe Reader 7.0" /f REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Applications\AdobeReader\AdobeReader.msi /qn REBOOT=Suppress" /f

@nightmeare NO IT DOESN'T. This code is for Adobe Reader 6 not 7 Run a test before posting! Only the extraction process is Unattended...

[GuiRunOnce] is executed at first logon at the SAME time as RunOnceEx.cmd look HERE The reason I am launching from there is because My RunOnceEx.cmd is compiled to RunOnceEx.exe and it didn't launched succesfuly when I was calling it from cmdlines.txt (for Windows 2000 SP4)

Yep... your code is working but only returns 04 when 2 digit... Maybe it is possible to add an IF statement just to check if there is only 2 caracters and if not it, 20 will be added at the beginning. Then we'll have to modify this one in 95 years!

Oh yeah... you're right. He should go with the registry tweak instead...

1) Watch for space! OemPnPDriversPath="drivers\Nic;drivers\audio;drivers\video;drivers\chipset" 2) Display at 1024x768x32Bits only work if your graphics drivers gets installed 3) AutomaticUpdates=No 4) All this information is easily available around. Use the search Function

Is it possible to launch RunOnceEx.cmd from the CD directly under the [GuiRunOnce] section of winnt.sif? for now I can do it in two steps: [GuiRunOnce] %systemdrive%\install\Launch.cmd and then in my launch.cmd: FOR %%i IN (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%i:\CD.bin SET CDROM=%%i: %CDROM%\CD\Script\RunOnceEx.cmd

If it isn't working anymore at ALL it may have to do with your options in NERO. This is the method to use without creating a ISO: And you have 2 choice for the Image File 1) Your "normal" boot sector from the MS Windows you are using 2) loader.bin in the EZBOOT/DISK1 directory.

looks fine to me... tsunami is probably right. I suggest you use the following code to obtain your %CDROM%: FOR %%i IN (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%i:\CD.txt SET CDROM=%%i: It is compact and it work great. If you want, you can change the target file it is looking for to anything else you wish that is present at ROOT of your CD. For me, I am looking for a file called CD.bin instead of CD.txt

Well thank's guys... AutoIT and VBS would be great solutions but the problem is that I am compiling my .cmd into .exe @gunsmokingman If I use your code, I get nothing returned... Only the title will show

Yep! I edited my previous post... before I noticed there was a second page in my thread Anyway, it seems to me like a "dirty hack" because it won't work on all systems... depending on the date format in the regional settings

I get this: 2-23 I need the first 4 caracters not the last one... But this will give different results if the regional setting are set differently... Is there a way to get it for sure? Independent from the configuration EDIT: it works on my system with this code: set YEAR=%DATE:~0,4%

If I use your code: SET %YEAR%=DATE /T:~0,3% REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "Service Informatique %YEAR%"/f I don't get anything returned!

If I go with: SET DATE = %DATE:~0,3% I get: 2004-12-23

Ah crap! 2005 was the text already present in my title! What I get with: SET %TIME%=TIME /T IS 21:44:48,84

Sort off... I'd like to trim the result to only display the year with your command I get: 2005 21:44:48,84

Once again I am requesting help for my batch file... all of this wouldn't happen if I had a computer BEFORE Windows 95 got out. All I want is the code to get the current year to my RunOnceEx title. I've been searching on the net and I found some variable like DATE/T and TIME/T but I'm stuck. This is what I want: REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "IT Departement %YEAR%" /f so this way, I wouldn't have to care to update the year in all my batch files.

Why is there only one \ in front of INSTALL and then two \\ in front of the next install (not in capital letter)?

@gbmacman done! thanks again! @Bilou_Gateux I moved KB814078 and KB823353 to the (new) EXCEPTIONS section of Windows 2000 SP4 since it is the best way to avoid problems... after all the testing we have done @everyone Have a wonderfull holiday time!

Well... I'm out of option for now... Can you confirm that If you take this setup and just burn with Nero with the Microsoft Boot Sector it will work perfectly?

@gbmacman Thanks! I will update the link soon... where the heck I got those links? @rutger10000 As long as you have 31 critical updates my list should be accurate ... unless the one you are talking about has been re-released more recently?

If you take this setup and just burn with Nero with the Microsoft Boot Sector it will work perfectly? I really don't get it. As long as the TextSetup mode is started, EasyBoot has nothing to do with the rest of the installation. Can you post this Batch file?
