  1. i'm looking for a way to install avast without chrome and the toolbar, and preferabele a way to customize what gets installed.

    for now i discoverd that running avast_free_setup.exe creates a folder in temp, where instup.exe get executed with the following arguments: "instup.exe /sfx /sfxstorage:"D:\Temp\avastinst\" /edition:1 /prod:ais"

    Anyone who knows more switches to configure the install?

  2. is it possible to use one unattended.xml for both Windows 7 and 2008 R2, which are on the same disk?

    i merged windows 7 and 2008 R2 and put the (uncompressed) iso on USB stick

    now i want to set for example the following things:

    Windows 7:

    Computername,

    User,

    Organisation

    Create user

    Skip OOBE

    Set resolution

    Windows 2008

    Computername (different from previous one)

    User

    Organisation

    Set administrator password

    Set resolution

    for both:

    add sata drivers for harddisk detection

    anyone who can help me with this, i'm new at the new image method, and this one is radically different compared to the XP answer file

  3. mschol,

    I don't have an answer for you and I think perhaps only nuhi can give you one. I did a search on my CD folder for 5.2.3790 (my build number front end) and found 30 or 40 hits. Many were .inf files. You may find one better than the rest. If you put your CD into your drive, the label will show up in My Computer (mine is ARMPXOEM_EN). If you Google this, you should be able to determine what it is.

    Hope this helps, John.

    for most cd's that could work but i have some cd's with a different name (not the original)

  4. because the basic GetFiles() method of VB.net wasn't good enough for me i build my own function in order to do what i needed

    Description:

    the Getfiles() method of VB.net can only handle one fileextension and crashes when it tries to read from system volume information or a Reparsepoint

    i thought of my own solution to that problem: build a function that searches a given directory for files that match a give Regular expression, and skip folders which you enter

    Usage

    searchFileSystem(path As String,searchPattern As String,searchOption As IO.SearchOption) As ArrayList

    path = a path (i.e. c:\)

    searchstring = a regular expression (i.e. .*?\.(avi|ogm|mkv|mpg|mp3|rar|mp4|mpeg|txt)$ for matching files with one of the extensions)

    SearchOption = wheter to search only the topmost directory or also search in the subdirectory's

    inside the function it also has a reference to an array which contains the folders where NOT to search

    			If excluded.BinarySearch(d.Name) < 0 Then

    excluded is in my function a Arraylist

    Language

    VB.net

    i included a file thats not directly usable, you have to implement it in your own code.

    i did include a few lines of code to show how u could use it

    it might not be the best code availble but since i couldnt find any function that did it this way i build it myself. (one of my very first VB.net things :) )

    SearchfileSystem.zip
