Well done mtimmermann

Autopartition looks for the first drive without windows to install on. So you do not want that. Repartition formats the first drive. This is what you want for automatic format. Note. Take care with repartition, if you boot with it by mistake and hit the key to start with cd, then kiss your data goodbye on the first drive. So [Data] Autopartition=0 [unattended] Repartition=Yes

%computername% can be used as is shown. Or you can optionally leave it out of the command. I believe computername is entered for the purpose of a network pc.

Maybe correct syntax may help, from your post in that other thread. Try RD /S /Q "%AllUsersProfile%\Documents\My Music" RD /S /Q "%AllUsersProfile%\Documents\My Pictures" RD /S /Q "%AllUsersProfile%\Documents\My Videos" RD /S /Q "%UserProfile%\My Documents\My Music" DEL "%UserProfile%\My Documents\My Pictures\Sample Pictures.lnk" RD /S /Q "%UserProfile%\Favorites" DEL "%UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories\Address Book.lnk" DEL "%SystemRoot%\Documents and Settings\Default User\Start Menu\Programs\Remote Assistance.lnk" DEL "%SystemRoot%\Documents and Settings\Default User\Start Menu\Programs\Windows Media Player.lnk" RD /S /Q "%UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories" RD /S /Q "%SystemRoot%\Documents and Settings\Default User\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories"

Could use pskill.exe from a floppy or cd. Example in batchfile pskill \\%computername% processname.exe processname.exe would be each process associated with NAV2004.

Without seeing the scripts, hard to pinpoint exactly the fault. Put this at the top of the scripts. (I assume Autoit v3) Opt("WinWaitDelay", 2000) That will slow down the install, between windows, to save a possible error.

@echo Installation of Office 2003 SP1... Please wait.... @echo off start /wait command cls @echo Installation of Office 2003 SP1... [Done] @echo Installing Nero Burning Rom....... Please wait.... @echo off start /wait command Something like this maybe?

Which app?

Internet Explorer engine handles the showing of .chm files. Maybe some related regtweak or something close with IE has caused this?

This is booster tweak, just double click the file to add to registry. No promises, I did not create this tweak. booster.reg

I would say yes. With winnt.sif, you can tell it where your $oem$ folder is for each I386 directory. There is several methods for each, guirunonce, runonceex, plus all other programs for installations that members have created. Each install, whether XPHome, Windows 2000 or whatever, can be totally different. Just need imagination and lots of time to assert your project.

Yes, perhaps thiese links should be in MSFN unattended cd guide. Some are already. Can be confusing searching and getting different results. Maybe the guide could be updated to reflect these good files? B)

You can change the icon via Display Properties -> Desktop -> Customize Desktop. Just need a good icon then and record reg as MCT says.

Wow, that's a list to sort. Hope you realize that a separate forum is setup for app switches. Have a good search through for your answers. Sorry, I cannot help. I use scripted installs rather then silent installs. Good luck

Shall be ok if you give it 60 secs or so for shutdown.

If you have more than 1 cd drive, try the other.

Oh, I had problems with no themes appling. Found out that because I had it rebooting right after runonceex without first logon to desktop. The following logon, I would only get classic only . Found out after several installs that you must let it logon first time to get your theme setting. Just thought I would mention. Incase you were following in my footsteps. ok?

I agree that winnt.sif slash missing may be the fault fourte3n. The theme file itself always seem to be missing slashes, but they still apply fine. Even look into the registry and you have slashes missing for theme stuff. If you look inside Docs and settings, windows writes up a theme script file that has missing slashes. Weird but true. Ensure that you logon the first time to get your theme before reboot else you get only classic. Hope I help alittle.

XCOPY /S /H /R /Y "%UserProfile%\Desktop" "%AllUsersProfile%\Desktop\" XCOPY /S /H /R /Y "%UserProfile%\Start Menu" "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\" Then use DEL /S /Q "%UserProfile%\Desktop\*.lnk" DEL /S /Q "%UserProfile%\Start Menu\*.lnk" That may do it. You can double check the switches and syntax, to make sure that they are ok for you. The delete command may take out accessories as well. You will need to exclude them somehow.

Expand control tweak looks exactly like mine. so is ok. You may need to use start /wait commands to stop setup while I assume, WPI is running. By the readme, it is supposed to run from guirunonce. So runonceex should be ok as well. I am unsure of the exact operation of WPI to fully give a true solution. If waits are within the software, then start /wait wpi.exe ? may do?

Move /? Moves files and renames files and directories. This means no recursing with folders, so you may need to do a command for every folder?

I use cmdlines.txt to apply tweaks. But if you have some tweaks which are 3rd party program related, those may need to be applied after the programs are installed, but only if they may be overwritten. Consideration is best depending on your setup configuration, etc.

You could try Window Installer Helper Utility. Does different users. Various others in forum as well.

That's alright. We all can make mistakes.

The unattended cd guide on this site tells you how.
