@Orsi - nope sorry mate @ashleysmith55 - sometimes you have to specify the location of the setup.iss file hence using, -f"<location to file>\setup.iss", command
-
ah, not sure then as haven't encountered that issue. i believe on the installshield website they would have that info so you could add to the setup.iss file and build your own.

link now seems to be working

is there a setup.iss file? if yes you can use this to silent install -s -f"<location to file>\setup.iss" -f2"<path to log>\progname.log" if not and looks like an installshield install, then use -r to generate your setup.iss. will be saved to c:\windows. DO NOT reboot after install of the setup.iss file will be lost. copy to same folder as .exe fill and away you go

Can't get it to work - Application Install
oioldman replied to DaDarkDevil's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
the best thing that may help you unattended.msfn.org if you have already looked, i would recommend that you follow the application install section. it can seem tough and difficult but after a dew goes you'll be singing. most switches can be found in the application install topic area and i know that nero and msn and winrar are there. for winrar you need use " around the path and file name as it has spaces in it, but you could just delete those -

Automatic creation of oeminfo.ini
oioldman replied to kev_147's topic in Programming (C++, Delphi, VB/VBS, CMD/batch, etc.)
bizarre! if you want to investigate further, i can send/upload the oeminfo.ini file, but as it does capture all i can just use that. thanks again P.S do you run this as part of an unattended install? and if so, when do you apply it. -
@bledd but i don't use a patched uxtheme.dll at home on CRT and it works. Will patch for LCD and see what goes [edit] patched and it all works a treat. Thanks to both yourself bledd & pgase for the real effort here. [/edit]
