Iexpress uses inf installer method. Tested with divx 3 and works. A quote from willypad help states: How to create a folder When you try to copy a file a non existent folder, it will be created automatically. If you wish an empty folder, it's really simple, create a shortcut as shown above, and place it in the folder you wish to create; then erase the shortcut as shown... Creates the use for Iexpress if you are into inf install creation.

Why not try to put them into $OEM$\$DOCS\Default User\Favorites I insert my templates, Application Data, etc via Default user this way. This should work for favorites as well? Folders and urls?

If you used SetupMgr program to make your sif file. It would have asked you, if you wanted to install from cd. Then yes would be UnattendedInstall="Yes" on your 2nd sif file. Correct this mistake, and it may work fine.

If this is an unattended office cd, then you could alter the autorun.inf file. e.g. [autorun] OPEN=setuppls.exe /AUTORUN ICON=setuppls.exe,1 shell\configure=&Configure... shell\configure\command=setuppls.exe shell\install=&Install... shell\install\command=setuppls.exe shell\unattended=&Unattended... shell\unattended\command=setuppls.exe TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb- This would alter it on my cd to right click on drive, and select Unattended in context menu. You could also replace /AUTORUN with TRANSFORM=...... so it runs on cd insertion.Would not recommend. Some changes may be needed to suit yours.

Seems like you may have found a bug with VMWare. Try disabling network and hardware options with VM, so it is isolated. Give that a try. Btw, VMWare has a forum, in which you could post this problem for a solution.

The tweak: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SOFTWARE \Microsoft \Windows NT \CurrentVersion \Winlogon] LogonType = 0 (Classic = 0, Welcome Screen = 1, Default = 1)

Here is a regtweak for MFT: ; MasterFileTable Sizing - 1=Default 2=Medium 3=Larger 4=Maximun ; ====================== [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem] "NtfsMftZoneReservation"=dword:00000001 Apparently 1 is 12.5%, 2 is 25%, 3 is 37.5% & 4 is 50%. May be useful.

To configure Windows XP not to use the classic logon and shutdown screens for every logon session, follow these steps: 1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel. 2. Double-click User Accounts. 3. Click Change the way users log on or off. 4. Check the Use the Welcome screen check box. Hope this saves a reinstall.

Please don't show serial numbers. You could consider in cmdlines.txt, to have account creation before installing programs? In RunOnceEx.cmd, cannot see any code for finding what %cdrom% equals? rem statement is for...? Consider putting shutdown at end of cleanup.cmd, saves premature execution. Asterisks in user account? maybe an issue, if you are inserting 2 names with a space. May need inverted commas if so. Hope some of these help you.

If you do create another cmd file. For example, cleanup shortcuts etc, then insert shutdown command last in it, then put that in winnt.sif, as last entry in [GuiRunOnce].

You are using GuiRunOnce. So insert it in your winnt.sif under [GUIRunOnce]. You should be able to run shutdown.exe from the end of your install.cmd file without start /wait and without echo commands. As you can insert your message in the shutdown command. shutdown -r -t 60 -c "Reboot required, please be patient" -f Do not understand, why you need another command file?

Remove the start /wait as it is not required. You may need to increase the timeout to 60+ , so you will login for theme setup. An alternative, is to put a self-detruct cmdfile in the startup folder. I use this method for removing shortcuts, run an autoit file to close some windows that open, then deletes that file. Then it executes shutdown.exe, anytime suits. The cmdfile then deletes itself. Works well.

And why not?

I do. This is not the full version of Adobe Acrobat. The full version can create PDF's, intregrates with Office for PDF creation, etc. This is just the bloatware version of Adobe Reader that incorporates ebook library. Just a few more plugins to slow it down. The regular Reader is all that is needed. B)

You can put them in $OEM$\$$\Web\Wallpaper folder and setup will copy them over. Or you could use RunOnceEx or GuiRonOnce to extract them from an archive into your %Systemroot%\Web\Wallpaper folder.

Use this instead: Del "%allusersprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\X-Setup Pro.lnk"

I am unsure mssaad66, you state that this 2.8ghz system shows no good, yet others are ok. Could not be the software then?

Yhat is a default screen, for low res. You certainly have probs, if that is showing.

Can only get 77kb of corrupt archive. Should be something like 300 - 400 kb?

%UserProfile%

Your targetpath should have a backslash in front of it? Otherwise, I do not see a reason, if you are getting 8 bit color, mssaad66.

mssaad66 [shell] DefaultStartPanelOff = Yes Will do classic startmenu? 98 sorta look,

If you go through the properties of the services, they will tell you of their dependences on others. I believe IPSec is important. I use hardware profiling for aggressive use for services.

Your saying 8 bit color, Maybe wrong settings in winnt.sif for your video card?
