Sorry for hijacking this thread, but I would like to thanks Bristols for his work on keeping WIndows 2000 alive. I recently had a really bad urge on reinstalling the w2k on my other hard drive that I recently salvaged from the laptop.
It took me a while to find the latest pre-sp5 package that was left behind back in 2006.
Keep up with good work, Bristols.

Need info on drivers without dism.
0 -
@MrJinje Not bad, but this will be my first time using the deployment via unattended setup for windows vista/7, so, I'm hoping for a good and easy way to do this.
And as for driver, you didn't specify the instruction for packing the unzipped and current drivers used by devices into a zip ( similar to integrating the drivers to system32 or something, almost like nlite/vlite. )
had some experiences on XP unattended on older pc, and did a good on batching, and still across to the drivers issues.
I don't really like to write batch for drivers to setup at one time each.
I still need the instruction on how to integrate the driver into something and will be unzip on the fly without executing any setup on it, namely on chipset and video card drivers.
Also it would be nice to hear the instruction on how to hook up the essentials apps from drivers to os ( such as start the services and auto-start and so forth; as well and to register the registry and services.
Thank you.

Hosts -
After running the Spybot Search & Destroy, it integrates over 10,000 of bad host ip into hosts. That's something I would like to save for the next unattended setup, but I understand that it could be easier if I write the batch to copy the hosts into system32/drivers/etc instead, but I would prefer to write my own batch for the hosts.
Does anyone have any ideas or experiences on making a batch that actually writes correctly into hosts without having restart into safe mode or something?

Bitdefender - I would like to have it installed silently using switches, but i dont know how. Also I need to have a batch handy for integrating the virus scanner for Windows Live Messenger.

@gforce
Yes, you are correct,
I was asked to force accept the EULA before running on any of these Sscreensavers. ( Which it have to run the setup first )
I tried to place the EULA files to program files, but its not working.
@wwtippyww
Tried that. No differences.
0 -
Exactly,
When I move some screensaver to other computer, it just bringing the warning that I need to accept the EULA.
I need to know HOW or WHERE to get the files or registries to make it accept the EULA.
P.S. any suggestion on install monitoring than InstallSpy?
0 -
main problem with that is once installed, it bypassed the EULA agreement, which its legal.
I'm ASKING how to copy the screensaver into the other pc, which plus! is not installed, and it kept bringing up the EULA required to agree with the whole cd.
I know its discontinued, but i would like to know the workaround with the EULA agreement.
Edited = Also, I would like to repeat what I have said in first post, InstallSpy generated total of 192MB of installation log, so i would appreciate for the other install monitoring, including the registries, so i can get better solutions on workaround on EULA. Thanks.

I owned both XP and Plus! legally, but I do wish to extract one screensaver to other computer, but how can i find the license agreement on file or registry, because we don't really want to do the pain in the butt installation from the Plus! cd.
How can I do this?
InstallSpy generated 192MB of log from Plus! cd installation, alone. Any suggestion?

Vista Basic

Windows BASIC?!
Dude, you are better off with Home Premium.
Also, you should wait for SP2 releases on RTM soon.

How to integrate it into cd anyway?
0 -
Actually, I used Benners tool with a few tries, and it came out just what I wanted.
I used his tool and created a new WLM9 setup.
CRT.msi
Contacts.msi
Mail.msi
Messenger.msi
That's the most basic I can have without any kinds of problems. Using Benners' tool is recommended.

What about Windows Live Mail? Have you included it too??

Except there's a problem.
XP CD has the old files for 9.0B, probably 9.0a as well as .NET Framework 1.1... to add the DirectX 9.0C and .Net Frameworks will creates more spaces on the cd, making it impossible to fit all of it in CD.
Will WPI replaces the old files with the new one?

I have a concern that I need someone to make sure these hotfixes are compatible for both copies of Home Edition and Professional for X86, Service Pack 3.
Please help me by pointing out the particular hotfix that won't be able to slipstream.
Thank you very much.
