I would like to go with OEM Folder, and do not find a reason why its not getting copied, because I have other OEM info and bmp as well in there. OemPreinstall=Yes is there in winnt.sif what else could be the reason? And by the way Geej, how do I run this inf, if you could tell me step by step? Bu I was more interested in OEM Folders to run.

Tried this, nothing got placed onto the desktop.

Hi All, I have my own business of computer repairs and services. I would like to create an unattended disk, though I have learnt the major process. There's one thing which I would like to have. I would like to have a desktop shortcut to my website, so that it gets placed on the desktop when we install windows. Any help in this regard would be appreciated. Thanks

HI all, First of all, it is a question regarding my admission to Graphic Design Course. I got this offer from 1 of the college, and they have asked me to submit my 3 art samples printed and to describe it in 50 to 100 words. Now I need help here, how do I do this. Like what kind of art samples should I have to be accepted in course. I will appreciate your help towards this. Thanks Mukesh

my wiint.sif file and sorry easy, I coudn't understand what you said, but yeah here's my winnt.sif file, and i took the snapshot at t-18, so the setup can take time to look for files... but when it reaches t-13 and t-12, a CMD.EXe window appears and then goes away, and after that the setup goes fast....!

when the project runs on virtual machine, and suppose whether xplode launches or doesn't launches, where do we see the xplode.log file...... in the virtual OS machine?????????? OR in the host machine, real machine????????? And one more question! OR is it necessary to run the whole setup till the end, cause i have to wait till the setup ends....!!!!!! OR can't I do like this, that sppose I want xplode to run at T-12 via cmdlines.txt, but suppose it doesn't run at T-13, can't I stop that setup in VMware?????

whatever you guys says ....i change that too..... but nothing works....why??...! Am i doing something really wrong??...!

Hi easy.........OK i edited that what you told me for cmdlines.txt it still doesn't launches xplode.....! Any reason??... I opened it up with IE, no errors at all.......still problems! Mukesh

Hi easy.................. I tried the way you asked me too........didn't work at all... But one window CMD.exe appears and then it disappears suddenly, and then the installation goes further to finish......................in the meantime, no xplode launches....i don't know why! I changed this file to add log, but .....' cmdlines.txt xplode.xml this is the same structure as you told me....like cmdlines.txt finds xplode.exe which looks for xplode.xml file with the log, and then xplode.xml file looks for apps or registry accord to xplode.xml paths....!! but in my case, everything looks fine, but i dunno why it doesn't lauches it up..! Help me..! Mukesh Thanks

Hi easy......after the variable #SOURCEPATH# in the two lines, it says one folder DIRECTX9 and the other folder HOTFIXES.............................. what i want to know is that are these two folders on the root of the CD, with the i386, support folders.???????

but @easy....i do not want to run the software installation after the logon....i want almost everything at t-13 or t-9..around that time

@ Versius Nothing happened Versius, none responsed...!

@ easy........................ Are you running all the xplode related things from the CD??.....

I think mine is same as yours Versius.....isn't it??.... But don't know why isn't it running??

OK....I guess cannot start xplode due to some wrong things...! Can I chnage the processing of xplode ....to see if it works for me or not...! Now i think I would like to copy all the files to the HDD , and then run those application from the HDD by Xplode which will be called from the CD/DVD...! How's this possible??.... I am not sure, but I change things in here....tell me where are they wrong?? cmdlines.txt xplode.cmd xplode.xml

This will add Control Panel to your My Computer..... This would work like a charm.....hope it helps what you are looking for...!

yup.....we can install directly from the CD, that's I want, but I cannot. OK tell me one thing.....You must be using cmdlines.txt to call a .cmd file which then calls xplode, right??....Where's that xplode file called from??...Fromthe CD or from the HDD is it called???....Hope you understand what I mean..! And the other thing I want to know is when we use cmdlines.txt to call xplode, whatever the way we use.....Do we have to use any of a single line in winnt.sif file??...... Hope you understand this too.....I just want to clear up my mind...! Thanks my friend..!

that's OK Versius, So Ok,I also want my xplode to run that way, during XP setup... And yeah....one more thing! Do you copy your Program, Apps to your hard drive and then run it from HDD??? Or Right from the CD??

@Versius....... Are you running xplode during windows XP Setup ORRR after logging in windows after everything installs....????

i tried it again.....it showed me this... and when i clicked on OK,it resumed...but i think it didn't run xplode...!

but mine is saved in unicode, it still doesnt run....!

Hi Killerbee... 1. I put my xplode.exe file in Xplode directory on the root of the CD.. 2. I put my xplode.xml file also in the Xplode directory on the root of the CD.. 3. I don't know what do you call it, T-9 or T-12, but I call it from cmdlines.txt which then calls xplode.cmd file ..<<--both in $OEM$ directory cmdlines.txt file (In $OEM$) xplode.cmd file (In $OEM$) 4. I don't have any idea whether it is executing it or not!, But I think it is not, for some reason, which I dont' know.5. This is the major thing which I can't get it to work. If it creates any log file, then obviously we can know where the problem is. But since it doesn't create any log file on my C:, how can I know of the problems. 6. I just can't get explode to work, right now this is the only major problem for me..! ADDING TO THAT...... This is my winnt.sif file in I386 folder And I have my all registry tweaks or Application Programs in a PostInstall directory which is also on the root of the CD. I am posting pic of my Xp structure....if it works then great! Thanks

can u explain step by step.......?? If you could please...thanks!

i dont know why i can't get it right...! I m sorry to waste your time...thanks for help..!

Didn't work at all.... And my login also doesnt work at all..!
