I've searched the forum and wasn't able to find any switch. That's why i've been asking(i've also tryed all the switches i know). And installrite and wininstall le don't work. If I can't find any way to install silent i'll have to install manualy. THX for the replies.

Internet Download Manger 4.01 silent switch needed! I've been searching the forum and their site and wasn't able to find any! URGENT HELP NEEDED! THX!!!

I simply love this one! I've tested almost every version and allmost all worked perfectly. I hardly await the next update and version 1.0

I use install.exe It's easy to use and lets you choose the apps you want to install. Also you can try to use Windows Post Instalation Wizard(I can't remember the exact name try WPI) it lets you choose what to install. Hope this helps!

HI! I don't want to be rude but... I saw a few reg entries for the power setings,visual setings etc in the regtweaks section of the forum.Try looking there. I think you can find something useful there.

I prefer using VMWare though I've also tried Virtual PC

Some while ago Gosh posted a complete guide on reduction of the xp cd size. There he also discribed how to use both an unattended install and also how to make the repair option possible again.(for the method to work you'l have to follow his way of reducing the size) Just search the forum I'm sure you'l find the topic! Hope it helps!

@yanghaijun I'm almost 100% sure that you CAN'T change the i386 name.

I've made a few unattended CD's and this thing ALWAYS hapened. I don't think there is any way to change that.

I think you can slipstream SP2(i think it's made in the same way as with SP1) into your CD so you don't have to install it via RunOnceEx.cmd. I think you should find a guide on the forum. Hope that helps.

Do you have something like this in your WINNT.SIF file? If not add it. Change the resolution to suit your needs. For the second part i think that this will do it: Also you can automaticly add the user you wish. Here is the link: Autologon Hope this helps!

HELLO! This fourm rulez! I've been browsing it for a few months but only now i decided to join. I'm not a complete newbie (thought i come from Romania) but still hehe... i have much to learn from you guys So I'l talk less and browse more! Keep up the excelent work!!!

MainKey: getkey 20 boot 0x80 if $lastKey == key[1]; then chain /VOL1.dat Here's how i call XP setup.It works. It's posible that PRO1.dat doesn't work with your XP kit(or it may be modified). I also used his guide but the boot sector was downloaded from Gosh's site. I guess you used the boot sector provided there.

@mafomete2004 WinIstallLe won't help on this one. P.S.(in romanian) Las-o moartă Mafoame.

Though I have it working if I'l have time I'l try to corect the "mistakes". But this is a new version of RunOnceEx.cmd i wrote. In the old one i only used a few msi files and InstallShield. It still didn't work.There were no drivers only apps. I just can't remember which and i don't have the old file any longer. I don't want to be rude but even with only a few progs(the switchws were tested on VitualPC and on another PC and worked) it still kipped a few apps.And theold one was runnig from %systemdrive%\install\.Not from CD.

OK.I think I made it using install.exe(i've used ver 2214). I've just have to tested it on vrtual PC. Later:IT WORKED!FINALLY!My CD is working! (Still the Runonceex method doesn't work but thats it I'm using from now on install.exe). Thanks to all for support.

@maxXPsoft I made that start folder in disperation,i was trying everything. Actully the drivers in the start folder WERE in install.That didn't worked either. Sorry for the confussion.I'll be more clear in the future. I also copyed the install folder to c: and tryed to run the apps from there. No good.

I can't exactly tell you which ones won't install. For example the nVidia and Intel driver(these have never been installed) but for the other its like this:if winamp is installed then WinZip isn't and so on. The name and paths of the apps are all OK.I triple checked. But still if you find any errors tell me.

@maxXPsoft I made that start folder in disperation,i was trying everything. Actully the drivers in the start folder WERE in install.That didn't worked either. Sorry for the confussion.I'll be more clear in the future. I also copyed the install folder to c: and tryed to run the apps from there. No good.

I've just finished my CD and ... I have a problem with my runonceex part. It installs SOME apps but not all.I have no idea what to do. O yeah,using the old start.cmd all works perfectly so the switches can't be wrong. PLS HELP!!!
