  1. If that application has been downloaded from www.flvpro.com (authors site) then I doubt someone will make a silent as it contains malware. This is the result from Virustotal.com: http://www.virustotal.com/analisis/bbbf71bf12fb400626d6e9f3df2e20ba29a978333e20ef38c5bbad541d05dba0-1280876426 Furthermore, it looks to me that you only came here to ask for a program. I believe that's not exactly the spirit of this forum. Cheers.
  2. Hello Wush, I've checked my file size, it is only 4.85MB. Guess yours is OK, just test it. In your .ini you have only the last one (3.5SP1) selected. You could select all .Net 3.5 components to have the complete package. It will be a lot bigger. Cheers.
  3. Thanks 5eraph and Sp0iLedBrAt, just had a look at the topic. Going to try it out soon, I had tried Rick's UPL before, but it doesn't work with network installs. I think mahmoudxp1982 will also be happy with Onepiece's Universal UpdatePack/Addon Creator. Cheers.
  4. He might have to learn how to fish anyway. Onepiece´s IE8 is English, mahmoudxp1982 is perhaps looking for the localized version, in that case he can make a 7z SFX installer and put it in svcpack. I had to do the same, need everything Spanish so I made my own IE8 silent installer. If the op needs help I´ll be happy to assist. Cheers.
  5. Sorry for the delay, just came across your question. Try to add this: (just an example, put the title you wish) SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "Instalando Aplicaciones" /f REG ADD %KEY% /v Flags /t REG_DWORD /d "20" /f It seems that the flag has to be set, else it doesn't work. Cheers.
  6. Well after looking at the AutoIt script I was still not satisfied. Some processes have to be killed afterwards and I also got problems with the sidebar popup on Vista. After a lot of reading I decided to take apart the setup and rebuild it without the junk. The result is a new Ashampoo Burning Studio 10 installer that: 1. Does not install the MyAshampoo toolbar 2. Does not autostart IE (or any browser) 3. Does not change default search scope 4. Does not install gadgets 5. Does not autostart ASBS after install. Shortcuts will be created. The offending components have been completely removed from the package AND from the script. Default silent switches can be used for Inno (/VERYSILENT /SP-) and it will be completely silent. Last but not least, key is of course not included, if you have your legit key or reg file you can add it with the help of the regfiles from Vkcelik. You can even compress them together as a 7z SFX silent installer so there should be no problem there. Legit key is not required for install, the program will function in trial mode for some days and you can add the key later. I'll release this on MSFN because I've learned so much here and now it's time to give something back to the community. Please test it and leave your comments. Cheers! EDIT: Read on for updated version.
  7. Vkcelik, I'm more or less the same as it concerns AutoIt, was looking at the task of doing it myself but I just stumbled upon your post. Tested on Vista 32 and working. I got a warning about the gadget installation (security risk, file from Internet) but that's on my side. The script does the job and all is well, search is not changed, IE doesn't launch and the gadget does not install. I do find that Ashampoo has become a little bloated with the toolbar, ebay stuff and info channel. Lot of unneeded stuff, too bad. I'll check on x64 OS soon, but it should work OK. Cheers!
  8. Erlisperlis, From your procesdata file I can see some updates are not being processed... There is at least one thing I can help you with: NDP30SP2-KB982524-x86.exe <---- Did you download it and put this directly in your workfolder? You should first make the silent installer as Krose instructed in his PDF Tut. It includes decompressing the .MSP files and re-compress them as individual silent installers. Your procesdata does not show these individual updates, neither your work folder contains them. I have just made the .Net all-in-one with the tips from Krose and everything got processed. It all comes down to reading a bit, once you got it it's fairly easy. Strel if you are out there, thanks for this wonderful tool! Cheers Escorpiom.
  9. SOLVED at last with the help of Myselfidem, and the winner is MaxXPsoft, message at this link http://www.msfn.org/board/runonceex-registry-windows-vista-t137757-pid-881763.html/page__view__findpost__p__881763 There is one thing very different in Windows 7, it is the need to set "flags" on a reg key. I did not have time enough to read about the change, it could have something to do with registry virtualization, anyway setting this key solved the problem: SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "RunOnceEx - Testing Applications" /f REG ADD %KEY% /v Flags /t REG_DWORD /d "20" /f Now ROE can run without problems. ROE does work in Windows 7 x86 and x64, but the setup has changed, now we have to use "quotes" and flags while in Windows XP it was a lot easier. I really must say W7 is giving me a hard time. My setup: I do only network installs from a share. TFTP booting 210MB Multi7PE wim image (Winbuilder project)that does 32 bit and 64 bit setups. All tools are on the share and run from there (partitioning, recovery, antivirus etc.) Windows 7 with integrated lan drivers and updates on the share, autounattend.xml and the firstlogon.cmd as described by maxXPsoft (slickest method IMO). Firslogon.cmd integrated in the OS image is as simple as it gets, made it universal for al windows OS and only - sets zonemap reg entries to kill annoying pop ups during unattended app install - maps two network drives - calls one universal ROE.cmd for all OS on the share. The universal ROE.cmd checks the OS version running and only imports the (predefined) ROE entries for that OS, it's easier for me to maintain one file only. The ROE process runs, installs all (silent) apps for that OS and exits. Goal is minimum user input, maximum automation and the most complete up-to-date config at the end. Finally, want to thank everyone here on MSFN, I may not post a lot but by reading your posts I learned a great deal. Cheers, Escorpiom.
  10. Thanks for the fast reply myselfidem, My file looks similar, and yes it does work upto the point that the reg entries are imported. Problem is that it does not start when it has to, the system has to execute the ROE process at first logon, even before the desktop loads. But it does not...The entries are in the registry but they don't ever run. Weird thing is, 32 bit Windows 7 works fine (aarg!). Thanks for any help on this.
  11. Hello all, Most of the time I find the solutions by reading, the past few days however I was not so lucky. Here's what happens: I use autounattend.xml with 7 x64. Firstlogon command contains commands to import ROE entries. At first logon Windows starts but the ROE entries are not executed. I did a regedit and all entries have been added to the registry, so tried to execute it manually by opening elevated command prompt and typing rundll32. exe iernonce.dll,RunOnceExProcess The command completes without error, but ROE does not start! As it works perfectly on the 32 bits version, so it must be some change in the registry for 7 x64. Can someone help me with the correct location of the reg entries? Or the command to start the process? Entries are at: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx Thanks!
  12. Hello again, It has been a while, but I'm pleased to report complete success with the latest version of the program. I did have some issues with multiple inf's and matching device id's, but that's on my side and was easy to resolve. The hardware database works in alphabetical order. Sometimes an older driver was installed for a device while a newer driver was available. Renaming of the folders was necessary, for example 01 and 02 in front of the names was OK to have the correct driver installed. I believe there is nothing more to solve as it works fine now. Your support to the community is one of a kind Madboy. If you have some spare time, you could take a look at updating the other (installed) drivers also. At this moment, Windows XP installs some outdated drivers and it would be nice if the program compares all found hardware Id's with those in the hardware.db. It would take a little more time but in that way every driver would be updated to it's latest version, not only the error devices. Anyway, thanks for this awesome tool. Cheers, Escorpiom.
  13. Cool! Darn lucky we are to have you here Madboy. Ok, just did a quick check on the hardware.db and indeed, it seems all id's have been correctly added. The file itself grew 1.4Mbyte, so you might guess there were some more entries missing.... Please allow me to test the new version, will report asap. Cheers, Escorpiom.
  14. Spot on. I prefer not to copy stuff when it's not needed. It has do be deleted afterwards anyway. And yes, keeping it on the share is easier. As far as the mapping, it's a neat future but I don't need it. Today I tested the new version and although I could not verify the subsys issue, came across something else. It's a little difficult to explain, please ask me if you don't understand. I have the inf from C-media audio driver. It contains a lot of device id's. Will attach the file here. For some strange reason, the hardware database is limiting the amount of device id's added. Please note my hardware.db is about 10MB at the moment. For example, VEN_8086&DEV_24D5&SUBSYS_97611849 were referenced in the inf, but did not show in the hardware.db! Only the first 53 lines from the 24D5 device were added, the rest was ignored. You can see that the 8086 24D5 section has a lot more entries, I guess more then a hundred in total. Because of this, the hardware was not installed. Error: Driver path not found in DB. PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_24D5&SUBSYS_18841019,\Sound\Cmedia\CMI_SIS_VIA_AC97\WDM\CMICHX.INF,cmuda.cat,Unknown, PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_24D5&SUBSYS_18851019,\Sound\Cmedia\CMI_SIS_VIA_AC97\WDM\CMICHX.INF,cmuda.cat,Unknown, PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_24D5&SUBSYS_18861019,\Sound\Cmedia\CMI_SIS_VIA_AC97\WDM\CMICHX.INF,cmuda.cat,Unknown, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_006A&SUBSYS_0A171019,\Sound\Cmedia\CMI_SIS_VIA_AC97\WDM\CMNVDA.INF,cmuda.cat,Unknown, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_006A&SUBSYS_0A181019,\Sound\Cmedia\CMI_SIS_VIA_AC97\WDM\CMNVDA.INF,cmuda.cat,Unknown, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_006A&SUBSYS_0A191019,\Sound\Cmedia\CMI_SIS_VIA_AC97\WDM\CMNVDA.INF,cmuda.cat,Unknown, As you can see, the last line referenced in hardware.db is "PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_24D5&SUBSYS_18861019", after that the Nvidia section starts. But there are a lot more entries in the .inf file! Either: - The hardware.db is size-limited (10Mb?) and because of that the number of entries are cut-off or - Only a certain amount of entries per .inf file/device id is allowed/added to hardware.db What could be the issue? Cheers, Escorpiom. CMICHX.INF
  15. Your updates are faster than I can test them I'm already quite pleased with the program. At the moment I'm using a XP distribution share with integrated LAN and MS drivers. From ROE a batch is run to map the network drive where all the drivers are. The program hardware installer and hardware.db are also on this network drive. After the drive mapping, the program runs from ROE. Drivers are installed, program exits and the rest of the programs are installed from ROE. I do not recreate the hardware database anymore in automatic mode. It takes too long. If the some drivers are added /updated on the server, or the folder structure changes, I run the program from the server and manually create a new hardware.db. This way, the whole installation process is completely unattended, while maintenance is easy (integrating hotfixes and some ap from svcpack) I can easily go and do something else, after a while the system will be ready. Agreed, editing inf files is not recommended. Hope it won't be necessary anymore with the new version. I have another request. It is about the "copy driver" option in the XML file. When activating it, it will copy EVERY driver to the local disk specified. It would be nice that ONLY the drivers needed for that system are copied, not all drivers. You can perhaps do this in combination with the search&match function. Will test the new version asap and get back to you. Thanks again, nice work! Cheers, Escorpiom.
  16. Madboy, please bear with me. I know I'm a pain but it's all for the better. I forgot to ask you about the subsys string issue, I had to edit some of the .inf files because they lack the subsys string and then the search&match function does not work. If no subsys string is specified in the inf, the driver is not installed. Look at the log file: [DRIVERS] Running SEARCH & MATCH function. Please wait... [03:33:41] - [DRIVER] Device => PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_24C6&SUBSYS_53494C21 Driver Path => NOT FOUND in DB [03:33:43] - [DRIVER] Device => PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2562&SUBSYS_25621849 Driver Path => NOT FOUND in DB [03:33:43] - [DRIVERS] SEARCH & MATCH function found 0 matching drivers [03:33:43] - [DRIVERS] SEARCH & MATCH function found 2 drivers that have no match. Oh dear.. The inf's had only the first part specified: PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_24C6 PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2562 After adding the entry in the .inf including susbys, it works marvelous. But you would save me a lot of work if the search&match function ONLY looks at the first part, that is VEN_XXXX and DEV_XXXX That way I don't have to edit all the inf's. Can this be done? Cheers, Escorpiom.
  17. I'm happy to report the same, finally all issues have been resolved. Window managing is done correctly now, making the process totally unattended. I'm now playing with 7z compression to bring the size down. Decompressed drivers take up a huge space on my harddisk. Hope it won't slow down the program to much. Thanks again Madboy for your work on this tool, it is very much appreciated. Cheers, Escorpiom.
  18. I haven't had the time to test your latest release in combination with the reg fixes, finished the last XP based system earlier. The wait is now for another "victim" to test the program. Before pro-s driver installer I was planning to do the method you describe: Backup a complete driverpackage and later on deploy that on another system. I'm a tech. I work mainly with low budget, integrated hardware and notebooks. The plan was to separate driverpacks based on platform, for example Intel, SiS, Nvidia or Via. Speed is the main concern, and automated processes will give me more time to do something else. Precious time! So.....I will be following your inventions. What I like about Pro-S is the xml config. Very simple to setup, yet a lot of options. I'll report back as soon as I have another system to test. Cheers, Escorpiom.
  19. The most annoying ting in computers is the fact that something seemingly easy results to be the opposite - so with this reg fix. Disabling the windows driver update by Internet is controled by group policy. The reg fix I made has no effect whatsoever. I did the trick with the hardware tab (yes it is there on XP but slightly different) and the changes made there were put in the registry under group policy. I cannot export the key, as it is under a special random key, different for each system/user. Pretty nasty. So far no solution found. EDIT: Found the correct keys. These are the reg entries. REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DriverSearching /v DontSearchWindowsUpdate /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DriverSearching /v DontPromptForWindowsUpdate /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DriverSearching /v DontSearchCD /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DriverSearching /v DontSearchFloppies /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f The Internet update wizard died today. Yeah! Cheers, Escorpiom.
  20. Madboy, I made a reg entry for that in my reg tweaks file. It will be processed at T-12. SET KEY=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer REG ADD "%KEY% /V NoDevMgrUpdate /T REG_DWORD /D 00000001 /F Will this work to disable the Internet update prompt? Found the group policy entry also, but manual disabling is not an option I'm afraid. Cheers, Escorpiom.
  21. Yep Madboy, that's right. First pops the Internet update wizard, it does that because the system is already connected to the net at that stage. So first I check the option "No por el momento" and press the button "Siguiente" if I remember correctly. Then, another option presents itself: Instalar automáticamente el software (recomendado) Or Instalar desde una lista o ubicación específica I select Automaticamente and yes, finally the driver is installed. There is a registry patch to disable the Internet driver update prompt. I searched for it but only Nlite seems to have that option. My last build does not have that activated. Would like to get rid of that darn Internet update prompt. Never use that anyway. You might have some tips? Cheers, Escorpiom.
  22. Ok I have isolated the problem. First, got rid of the WMI error. Help and Support is now included in the source and the program starts fine. Yeah! There are two issues pending: - The buttons don't get pressed at the PnP stage because of the internet driver update prompt. The log (debug mode) shows it. The ONLY button that is auto-pressed is Finalizar (Finalize). Note: this is a Spanish Windows XP. - Updating drivers runs, but does not update. I have in fact updated drivers for Via Rhine Ethernet card but it does not install. The same happens with C-Media Sound. I found the following: If the .inf has some hardware ID without "&subsys" string it does not install. I had to edit the .inf and add the subsys string, after that it was picked up by the program. Example: VEN_1106&DEV_3108 Does not install driver. VEN_1106&DEV_3108&SUBSYS_31081414 installs fine. The program should not look at the subsys. Let Windows figure it out. Or else, I would have to edit some of my .infs? I will add the log (had to zip it, was very large) and xml file so you can have a look. We are nearly there. If you succeed, I will worship you forever. Cheers, Escorpiom. hardware_config.xml hardware.zip
  23. Spot on, Madboy. You just forced me to do another Nlited WinXP but this time I left Help and Support in it. Removed only MSN Explorer, Windows Messenger, The Annoying Search Dog, Security Center and System restore. Tried to repair WMI in a thousand ways - nothing helped. The Microsoft vbs tool threw some errors and it is definitely not possible to repair them, even re-installing the help and support stuff didn't help. Microsoft states that a complete reinstall is needed. So far for the WMI errors. I did try the new version, still no show. Don't know if it is because of the screwed up WMI, but the hardware database is not created, drivers are not installed and the windows are popping up and the program keeps looping. Have to shut down the hardware wizard and then the program stops: "User canceled hardware wizard" or similar. Will try with the new installation and see how it goes. Cheers, Escorpiom.
  24. Well, after testing for a while it still does not work the way it supposed to. Sorry The problem is the window managing wizard. And some strange COM DOM error, I'll put the image and log with this message. As for the window managing wizard, it still asks me for confirmation, I have to click the buttons. Perhaps the problem is the "connect to internet" prompt, can it be? I tried two times, first time copying the drivers to a local disk, and the second time from the share. Sure it has to be something with the Spanish version. Someone else tried it on a non-English Windows XP? EDIT: Nevermind, I see that the Dutch version has the same problem. Hope Madboy finds the solution! Cheers, Escorpiom. hardware.txt
  25. Old topic but nevertheless: Using above method I could make an IE8 switchless installer with all updates until 29-10 that runs from svcpack. The package (Spanish) weighs about 42MB. It is even possible to put some reg tweaks inside. I also thought that it was not possible to install from svcpack, but it is. Thanks everyone. Cheers, Escorpiom.
