Ok, so I've been looking around on the net and I've found some precompiled '.cab' files which can be integrated as 'hotfixes or updates' that windows will automatically install before the user ever reaches the desktop. So, my idea is to do this with all of my programs. My only problem is that I don't know how to recompile, say, '.iss' files into '.cab' or how to cypher out the data from the '.iss' file to create a command for the '.cab' file. Does anybody have any ideas? The program I'm currently working with, in the .iss file, all it has is a bunch of registry entries. So if someone could explain how to create a '.reg' file out of that information, that would also work. Any and all help appreciated Thanks

Hi, I'm using nlite to choose components and such that I wish to remove from my XP pro installation. And I've done that successfully. However, I'm trying to integrate program installation into the windows installation using a program called Almeza Multiset. That program claims it can do everything nlite can plus the program integration, but I've found no way to remove any components, only to add programs. So my question, how can I use these two programs in conjunction with each other to created un unattended install with programs installed also? Or, if nobody is familiar with that question, where does nlite store the info for the unattended? What file in the distribution? Thanks!
