elo.. i came across this site yday and decided to give the unattended install a go! I made a test iso with the original msn removed, and the latest installed.. that worked fine, ( tested using windows virtual pc).. however i am now tryin to make a full version.. for which the details for the batch_file is below... My problem comes when installing... i see the attached image.. and it sits there for ages... the useless info on the right side keeps changing, and the little green squares continues scrolling... but nothing else changes... is this doing the below installations or is this not suppose to be related to installing these applications? Also can someone jsut have a quick glance over the command file incase there is a problem? ive copied the installation files to the folders as given but one i was unsure abuot is norton internet security... ive assumed that its the same as anti virus? but not sure as didnt get a result on my search in forum...
