Ok maybe I confused the issue What I'm really after is a ref to the vbs file syntax So if you say there is no on error goto wherever that is what I need to know from a ref,,, I did find example but I saw no on error goto in any of them. maybe that is why I didn't find any cause there is none.... What I have found is no matter what you use to do code with each one has a syntax that you have to follow,,, I have cut and pasted many html vbscript and played... there is a site that has tons of them but I can't remember what the url is... cause it has been along time since I was there.. The site is for web page html <javascript,,, I need to now the correct syntax cause I have played with many codes in my life time an I am no expert in any,,, just know enough to get it to do what I what,,, short files nothing major... Mac!

LOL You will find sometimes there is more than one way to skin a cat... Some times it is as easy for me to copy files than make a installer... LOL If you had a look at my installations list it seems that each one has a different way.. The basics are the same so I just copy by adshield install folder when I start a new one then rename stuff PLus add and delete as needed.. Copy and paste and rename from other folders to.. I was trying to do away with the popup windows when it installed all together// when I saw that it only made a few keys I said cool.... I also had a look at the forum at lavasoft and the same questions was posted over there too and the only switch is /s with the popup for us plain folk... And inorder to do away with them you have to contact support corp to get a MSI file so you can mod it.. BIG BUCKS corp only... Mac!

somebody at the daemon forum said to use this Try adding this to end of your msiexe.exe commands: REBOOT="ReallySuppress" So I don't know yet... I will give it a go later,,,, I will assume it wil have to changed to this start /wait msiexec.exe /i "%XPCD%\DAEMONTools\DaemonTools.msi" /qn /REBOOT="ReallySuppress" and this %XPCD% will be your path... Mac! I hope they are not pulling a leg LOL ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________

I split the install up into two sections I install my dial and the Caller ID program then run the install by it self and let the computer reboot... I am using the runonceEX so it may be diff for you... cmdow @ /HID @echo off Cls TITLE Setup Daemon Tools 1 start /wait %XPCD%\DAEMONTools\DaemonTools.msi /qn ECHO. ECHO SetUp Daemon Tools 1 EXIT when it reboot it does this from another post... cmdow @ /HID @echo off Cls TITLE Setup Daemon Tools 2 start /wait msiexec.exe /i "%XPCD%\DAEMONTools\DaemonScript.msi" /qb!- start /wait %XPCD%\DAEMONTools\DaemonDriveInstall.DaemonScript start /wait %XPCD%\DAEMONTools\FilesCopied\DaemonCopied.vbs rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 128 %XPCD%\DAEMONTools\DaemonTools.inf ECHO. ECHO SetUp Daemon Tools 2 EXIT the vbs copies files to make the other stuff work,,, no way out of a reboot if you don't reboot it will not install.. useless someone knows a way out... RunonceEX entries REG ADD %KEY%\020 /VE /D "SetUp DAEMON Tools pt1 Reguires Reboot" /f REG ADD %KEY%\020 /V 1 /D "%XPCD%\DAEMONTools\DAEMONTools1.cmd" /f REG ADD %KEY%\030 /VE /D "SetUp DAEMON Tools pt2" /f REG ADD %KEY%\030 /V 1 /D "%XPCD%\DAEMONTools\DAEMONTools2.cmd" /f then it one to the rest.... oh by the way the options that you see are a general list not all installer use them... Mac!

LOL this is a easy one... just load the program up... save the folders and the start menu and it has one register key also grab the uninstall key just use a vbs file to put it back...

Where can I find some reference material on .vbs files cause I have no idea what I'm looking for... I have done a search on the internet but all i'm finding is vbscript for html... what I'm doing is saving files on my computer that I call from a .cmd file... I tried some stuff but got errors so I need to find out if what I'm doing is legal syntax for the .vbs file.. I even tried a plain GOTO Bill bla bla :Bill and got a error.. Mainly error trapping,,, I put in ON ERROR GOTO HANDLE bla bla etc etc code to do GOTO BILL :HANDLE RESUMENEXT bla bla etc etc code to do :BILL bla bla etc etc code to do and it gave a error... Please help on where to look... Thanks Mac! Mac!

LOL I gave them the boot anyway..... I tried the bloody thing and the signature that they have want to delete the blocking stuff in the register that keeps the bloody stuff out in the first place and it gives allot of false positive... I run it every-once in awhile just to get a laugh... ad-ware is by far better and I use Tauscan v1.65 Build 1212 monitor.. I have never liked there program from the start of it.. I had issue with it when t was a puppy and they more or less told me to F*** O** from there tech support... About the only thing that is good about them is the removal pages that they have ,,, I have used them many times to fix peoples computer,,, I run blockers so I don't get infected,, so when it comes time to help some one I look at the reference removals on pages... I have WinsockxpFix.exe zipped up a disk too give my stepson when he gets here today... Him and his girl friend refuse(Too Lazy) to update the blockers and him and his girl friend visit those bloody sites that get you.. What p***es my off they turn the blockers off then come whining later . the crap they got this time is on the Spyware blaster list... I left pestpatrol running on there puter to but they turn it off,, SO go figure.. will they ever learn.. Mac!

I was over at the daemon site looking around and they have a tool but it only worked when Daemon is loaded,,, and I'm still trying to figure out howw to get it to silent install http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/portal/dow...ategory&catid=7 Download: awxDTools_104b228.exe http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/portal/dow...e=Download&id=8 Description: awxDTools is a shell extension for DAEMON Tools.

I used a trick of the eye I found a dialer installer converted it to my ISP and told it to be the default dialer then I hit the register with this LOL when I get all done all you I have to do is put in the user name and pass word and I'm on the net... Here is where I put a post for igor http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=25006&hl= has what you need you could just use the dialer plain but make sure you use these switches and change the bloody phone mumber it would suck to call them.. long distance.

I use a second hard drive running fat32 cause NTFS limits my playing I have a basic setup that I copy to the second hard drive.. but first I delete the folders... don't delete the root cause it will not boot up! just get rid of the hiberfil.sys and pagefile.sys and any extra files that programs drop there... I pull the controlling drive it is in a moble dock... now when I boot up the second drive is the main drive full steam... I have the test files on the D:\ parition from there is is just test and go... you don't have to run all the installed program unless that are reguired for you test... With this setup I'm not burn CD's or loading from CD's no ISO Just running from the C: and D: drive.... I put the runOnceEX on the D:\drive I install it then reboot and away I go... I already have the windows SP2 corp pro with drivers done just have to test all the extra programs... NO VM needed.... cause the second drive is the VM... Mac!

Hi all! I read this post and did get it working.. It is now in my unattended setup.. http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...&hl=daemon&st=0 and I recommend it to anyone who uses Deamon tools it is nice to right click and go... no turn on this then select that.. My question is how would one go about using this is a install.cmd to mount a ISO.. then after you are done getting the info to run the eject part... I'm kind of light on how to link to a right click functions of any kind... I know where the functions are in the register.. LOL I get rid of the extra junk from the contexts keys when I install stuff... I see where this might work for the mount but what about the dismount This is in the file types for iso.. is this what I need C:\Program Files\D-Tools\daemon.exe -mount 0,%1 C:\Program Files\D-Tools\daemon.exe -mount 0,"C:\My\Path\filename.iso" Mac!

Nice post a little confusing at first ... on what to name things... BUt I do recommend this to anyone that uses Daemon Tools .. Nice to have the right click options then you don't have to start this select that ... just right click and go... I will start a new thread for my next questioned Mac!

If you can't get that to work sack get right and use flashget http://www.amazesoft.com/download.htm untick share when you install it and it will not install any spyware,,, Flashget is better anyway...... Since I gave flashget a test drive I will not go back.. Flashget.cmd cmdow @ /HID @echo off Cls TITLE Setup FlashGet ECHO.

Nice post to get me going in the right directions... The link below gets the latest and greatest and no YAHOO toolbar use the /s for silent no nag screens installs both Flash 7,0,19,0 and shock 10.0.1r4 ... http://www.macromedia.com/go/fl_sw_exe_installer the file name is UberInstaller.exe signed on Friday, June 25, 2004 1:07:34 PM LOL I'm glad to see that they recognize that there are people who DON"T WANT the extra crap.. Mac!

For all of you that would like to install all you favorite software on the default desktop this is for YOU and those of us that know how messed up the windows 98SE and Windows XP register really is.. In windows 98SE you could just hit the cancel key and it would log you into the default desktop.. in Windows XP they tried to trick us by not putting a link to the profile so here is how to link back into the default desktop... And for those of us that understand how the default user profile in the register never gets updated when you install software.. this will let you set up all you favorite programs on the default user desktop so in the end when you create more than one desktop/profile each one will get everything... This is best done after a fresh install and you have not loaded any software during the GUIrunonce or used the runonceEX setup mode... **** BIG NOTE **** If you are running NTFS hard drive file system I'm not sure if you will be able to do this.. I run FAT32 file system cause the file system NTFS limits me to my playing... 1--> logon to the extra desktop mine is Vernon 2--> go into folder options and unhide all stuff 3--> change this key DefaultUserProfile from "Default User" to "Vernon" the other desktop Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList] "DefaultUserProfile"="Default User" Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList] "DefaultUserProfile"="Vernon" 4--> reboot --> this will unload the files in use in C:\Documents and Settings\Default User 5--> rename C:\Documents and Settings\Default User to C:\Documents and Settings\DefaultUser just notice I took the space out DefaultUser This will allow you to creat a C:\Documents and Settings\Default User from the VERNON profile Don't worry we will throw the Default user made from the vernon profile out.. we are just changing the name from Default user with a space to one without so windows will let us create one called default user with a space.. 6--> create a user called Default User 7--> make sure this is set to zero.. Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] "AutoAdminLogon"="0" 8--> Reboot and log into the new profile Default user This will create the folder profile for the throw away default user 9--> Reboot and log back into the Vernon Profile 10-->make sure you have the uhide stuff turned on in the folder options.. 11-->Ok here is the hard part delete the folder C:\Documents and Settings\Default User it is the throw away one,,,, 12--> rename the folder C:\Documents and Settings\DefaultUser with no space to C:\Documents and Settings\Default User with a space... 13-->retag this key with Default user Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList] "DefaultUserProfile"="Default User" 14--> Now reboot and log in to the Default User profile... 15--> DELETE the extra profile "Vernon" and hit all files also Now you are running on the unleaded Default Desktop.. and as a bonus when you get all done installing all you software and you make new profile for yourself and hide the rest add this to the register.. make sure you make a new profile cause if you don't and you put this in you will be locked out Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ;Disable "ASPNET" and "Administrator" and "Default User" User profiles...

from what I can tell the two packages DOTNETFX and kb8321240 do not allow the /integrate switch cause neither one of them meet this page qualification http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=262841 neither of them are a hotfix or a update.. they both install something new....... Dotnetfx goes with these two pages http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=197147 http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default....ine_options.asp and the kb8321240 goes with these pages http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...kb;en-us;227091 http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default....ine_options.asp both of them use the windows installer and the switches for the windows installer these are the only two that I'm install on too SP2.. I'm not going to load the viewer one cause it conflicts with office 2000,, the MS support help fix says to uninstall the viewer...

You can can the exe at the end of regedit not needed REG ADD %KEY%\050 /VE /D "Importing Registry Tweaks" /f REG ADD %KEY%\050 /V 1 /D "REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\install\regtweaks.reg" /f and you need this at the top of the reg file Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 leave a blank line after the first line and you need a carriage return after the last line "FirewallDisableNotify"=dword:00000001 Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ;Disables Windows Tour bubble popup [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Tour] "RunCount"=dword:00000000

Make sure the disc is for Data... If it is for music only then it is crap... also can you turn on verify files in that program,,, I use NERO and it has a box to tick for verify..

HUM! This article describes how to install multiple Windows product updates (for example, critical updates, security patches, or hotfixes) that use Hotfix.exe (Microsoft Windows NT 4.0) or Update.exe (Microsoft Windows 2000, Microsoft Windows XP, or Microsoft Windows Server 2003) with only one restart. This article is intended for administrators and IT professionals. You can install Windows product updates that use Hotfix.exe or Update.exe either alone or in combination with Windows (with or without a service pack). http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...&NoWebContent=1 Here was the kicker I found this in a link from the page above http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloa...1/hfdeploy.mspx Using Qchain.exe Windows XP SP1 and all post-SP1 hotfixes have Qchain.exe functionality built in. You can install SP1, and then install any number of post-SP1 hotfixes without having to restart the computer in between. For more information about how the Qchain.exe tool works, see article Q296861, "Use QChain.exe to Install Multiple Hotfixes with Only One Reboot," in the Microsoft Knowledge Base. So it looks like We don't need it anymore.. Mac!
