Very very very strange... This is my "final" code, I don't understand at all why this doesn't work... (the last window still opened) SiMoNsAyS, I've tried your code, the behaviour is exactly the same... I've checked thousand of times : my window is well named "Installer", the cancel button is the button3 one... Amazing, and frustating !!! I'm afraid of using AutoIt for others unattended install, since it doesn't seem to work on my computer...

Hmm... Don't understand why "Outpost Firewall Pro"; on my french version, that window is called "installer"... And on the english one, "install", no ? Anyway, I tried your code, but without success. I think I need to read the help file :-) Thanks !

Nobody ? Bouuuh !

Hi, I'm new at AutoIt; seems it's the ultimte solution for some softwares... ;-) Using edmoncu's script, I've made my own script for a french version of XP. Everything is ifine, except the last window... It doesn't cancel itself ! I have to manually click on "cancel"... Not very unattended... Here is my script; hope someone will help me !

All riiiiight !! I didn't notice the Redist, System32 etc. folders the administrative install created !! Thx very much for your help !

Hi, I don't understand the /a install... If a do a setup /a, it copies a "Norton Ghost 9.0.msi" on the C root (however I can change the path during this installation), and that's all ! So I have only a .msi (about 5 Mo)... If I try to install Ghost using this .msi with setup tells me some files are missing from \Program Files, \System32 etc.What's wrong ? Do I need to copy the files from the CD ?

Hello folks how about the unattended install of Ghost 9 ? I've already read this post, found the txtsetup.inf on the Ghost CD, and now... ? What should I do with this file, and how could I install Ghost silently ? Thx !! MrJojo

According to MSFN, this repacked Java machine is for all versions (SP1, SP1a and SP2... and for the original XP version ?) But, about the language... ?? Edit : Oops, sorry, didn't see your previous post, prathapml... too fast And yours too, sixpack !

Hello folks, Is the .Net Framework 1.1 with built-in SP1 (available here : http://unattended.msfn.org/files/netfxsp1.exe) an english, US, or international version ? I mean can I install it onto a french XP Home ? And same question for the repacked Microsoft Virtual Machine v3810 ? (http://unattended.msfn.org/files/MSJavaVM_3810.exe) Thx very much ! MrJojo

Ok, thx, I'll take a look ! :-) Jojo

Thx for your answer ! I've recovered the temp files, but I haven't any prodsett.ini or product.ini. I have only : bwsetup.ini, fsbwsett.ini, and params.ini. How should I modify these files ? And how to launch the unattended install ? Thank you very much ! Jojo

Hello, How can I make an unattended install of F-Secure Internet Security 2004 on a XP Slipstreamed SP2 CD ? Perhaps I can't... Thx ! Jojo

Hi, I think you can choose beetwen 2 options in VMW for your sound card : 1) By default, it emulates a Creative AudioPCI sound card 2) However, you can "connect" the "false" card to your real sound card, choosing the right option in the settings of your virtual machine (I think you should click on the sound option in your vm settings, these 2 options are here) I didn't try yet, but I think it is you're looking for...

Very strange, the same problem appeared on two different computers ! Never mind, now, I know... MrJojo

Hi, I've written a post about a trouble with autologin a few days ago; it seems the problem only happens in a virtual PC ! (I tried both MS Virtual PC 2004 and VMWare 4.5) Using theses softs with an image of a CD (made with a tool downloaded here), the autologin doesn't work if you do not specify a password; if you add a "DefaultPassword"=""line in your .reg file, it works, but XP creates 3 accounts : the account you've created, a "default" account named "Proprietaire" in french, wich is the account XP creates when you don't add a user, and the guest account... On a "real" PC, only guest and added user are created... The question is : WHY ??? (That apart, everything works fine with these softwares !) Be aware ! MrJojo

Ok, thank you very much, so I keep on using my method ! (I think it's quite easy to update my CD, just a few added lines in the hotfixes.cmd for example...) Oh, and I don't have a broadband connection, just a poor 56k modem, I cannot be infected as soon as XP is installed ! (perhaps the olny advantage of a non-permanent connection... ) Mrjojo

Hi all, I'm wondering something about the unattended installation of XP... : According to the MSFN method, (most) hotfixes have to be installed using the svcpack.inf file, which is launched at T-13; what happens if, for example, WMP is not installed yet at T-13 ? And there is a WMP hotfixe in the svcpack ?? What happens if an application is not installed yet, and I apply some hotfixes ? This is what, for my unattended CD, I put everything (applications, hotfixes, registry tweaks, and so on...) in .batchs launched by the [GuiRunOnce] section of the winnt.sif (except the creation of users, of course, via the cmdlines.txt) What do you think about my method ? Iam wrong ? Thank you !! MrJojo

I think you should try VMWare, faster than VPC2004 ! MrJojo

I've tried to add the "DefaultPassword"="" line, and it works ! Very strange, I'm quite sure I've never use it before !! [bM]Crusher, I don't want to specify a password for this user, this is why I didn't add the password option... Anyway, thank you both ! MrJojo

Ok, thx, I try this right now; I've forgotten to tell I own XP Home Edition, so the lusrmgr.msc can't work. And I'm sure the cmdlines.txt is launched (and the jojo account is created) because I can choose beetween "jojo" and "proprietaire" at the first logon screen... It seems only the .reg file is ignored ! Iam installing XP on VMWare, the answer in a few min... MrJojo PS : sorry for the forgotten code boxes, it was my first post on this forum, and I didn't know how it works...

Hi, since I've made a few changes on my "well-working XP Unattended Install CD" (just added some hotfixes), my cmdlines.txt file doesn't seem to work anymore : my auto login I've made doesn't work (I have to manually choose beetween the user the install created (jojo), and an other default user, called "Proprietaire" at the first login; before my changes, the auto login used to work well...) Here is a copy of some files. Thanks !
