Hi! I think this is faster and doesn't require booting in another OS: -> open a command prompt with administrative privileges and type these 3 commands: MKDIR A:\Boot XCOPY /H C:\bootmgr A:\ REG SAVE HKLM\BCD00000000 A:\Boot\BCD The C:\Boot\BCD* files are locked because they are loaded as hives in registry. Tested on my Vista 64 with sata-Raid0 C: and it works. HTH Davide.

Thanks... but I think it's quite useless to me I can't use material I cannot own (I am preparing unattended installs for a company, and we can't use it for legal issues). Then how about different locale versions ? I need to install italian version of DirectX9... does the OPK version address non-US versions, too? Anyway, I will be using the DirectXSetup() api... I include the compiled exe (20KB) and run without any params. Bye

Hi! I am approaching the "Unattended World"... I found out on some sites that, starting with DirectX9, no switches are available. Not having access to the OEM part of Microsoft Site, the alternative seems to be using DXSetup() Api. I managed to write this very very very simple and no-error-checking utility, which uses this api. I post the source code for public knowledge, hoping it might help: -------- remember to #include "dsetup.h" and to use dsetup.lib -------- DWORD dwFlags; int err; dwFlags = DSETUP_DIRECTX; err = DirectXSetup(NULL, NULL, dwFlags); // do error checking and report to the user return 0; -------- This snippet alone is able to start and complete DX9 Setup. DX Files must be in the same folder of the compiled exe (see MSDN doc) Bye everyone!! -- Davide DG IT Administrator davidedg@libero.it
