yeah im using my own cred's and around the same time at the same site. Give or take a few mins.

In the first post there was is only one with “alt” and that is AltDefaultDomainName"="DOMAIN" Try setting AltDefaultusername and altDefaultpassword also.

"DefaultUserName"="USERNAME" "DefaultPassword"="PASSWORD" "DefaultDomainName"="DOMAIN" "AltDefaultDomainName"="DOMAIN" Try adding these: "AltDefaultUserName"="USERNAME" "AltDefaultPassword"="PASSWORD" You can also try "DisableCAD" set it to 1

I’m an admin with user machines using XP pro OS. We use roaming profiles. I have a logon issue. When I log into computers in my local area it takes 30 sec. or less. When I log into remote computers that are located out of state some take me 25 minutes to log into. But some only take a minute or two. I think this might be an authentication issue. This is why I think this. When I connect to a user’s computer and try to do a runas from the command prompt the time that it takes for the runas command to complete is very close to the same amount of time it would take me to log onto that computer. 25 minutes for runas to open an admin cmd window is painful to watch. I have tried runas with and w/o profile. Are there any tools to see if this is the case? Or, does anyone have any suggestions?

This example Install.bat will start on remote machine ABC when the next user logs on. If admin rights are needed it will not run for a normal user. Just replace C:\Install.bat with the location of the file you want to run. SET KEY1="\\ABC\HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Currentversion\RunOnce" REG ADD %KEY1% /f /v "INSTALL" /d "C:\Install.bat"

can anyone explain the how the Licenses work for windows server? I have 4 users and would like to know the best way to set server. Thanks

this sounds like a fun little project. But why are you still using 98?? No disrespect intended, I’m just curious.

I have tried a similar method. The issue I have with that is I need the software installed with the driver package.

I’m not sure if this is the correct place for this question but if its not I am sure someone will let me know. I have a batch file that installs all the drivers. What it does is install one driver like the chipset and then reboots then the video driver and then reboots. But the issue I am having is that the “Found New Hardware Wizard” keeps popping up and causing my batch file to hang. If I’m sitting there and click the cancel button to the Wizzard then there is no problem. However, it is no longer a unattended install of the drivers. Does anyone know how to stop the “Found New Hardware Wizard?” I have read several posts and havn’t had any luck. I have even turned PNP off with a reg hack. But no luck there either. Thanks for any info you can give.

When I started the install and clicked on the icon in the first install screen I didn’t get the “about” choice. Is there any other way to find out what the installer is?

Thanks! I went there and almost missed the links at the top again. I just skimmed the link but I found the guides this time. Im burning my first iso/try as I type this.

Do you have a SATA drive? I have come across this problem before and I had to enable the SATA drive in the bios. Just a suggestion, good luck.... Anyone know where I can find a guild on how to use nLite? I just d/led it and looking for something to explain how to use the software.

Im not exactly sure what you are asking for when you ask what is the installer made with? I didn’t create the install package. I was just wondering if there was a way to have it run unattended since I use the default settings without making an .msi. But im guessing the .msi file would be easier and faster. Heres the link to the software im installing. http://www.irmcorporation.com/manufacturer...-reporting.html

Another question I have is how do I uninstall a older version of the software before I install a newer version? I guess to explain what I’m doing is that I’m trying to make an unattended upgrade from older version to a newer version. Any tips or advice would be most helpful.

How do I get an .exe to install unattended in a batch file? Is creating .msi file the only way? I have tried file.exe /? and /help but no help menu shows up.

Thanks for the help. I am still very new to the site. I still have a hard time finding my post LOL. I thought I just posted in the OS section of the forms. Next time I will try to post in the correct form. When I tried to get the help menu with /? and /help It just tried to install it. I got the prompt. To speed things up I think i will just create a .msi and be done with it. Go back and fig out my mistake later.

Im trying to install software with a batch file. I want it unattended but when I run it a prompt keeps coming up asking the user if they want to install the software. This is the line im using. Did i miss something? start /wait C:\Install\setup.exe /sPB

I am looking for freeware that can run more then one 3D game on the same box. I tried using Innotek virtualbox but ran into problems when the game tried to run. Directx seemed to be the issue. no virtual 3D i guess. So does anyone have any ideas?

I might have missed something here but it sounds like its not finding the HD. Do you have a SATA drive? I have come across this problem before and I had to enable the SATA drive in the bios. Just a suggestion, good luck.
