Retro

I haev been searching the site here, and i can't seem to find anyone who tried? are you guys sure it can't be done? (forgive my bad english)

Hi there! i was wondering..... in Windows 98 the OEM installation there allowed companys to enter user information and product key when you pressed a certain key on the desktop. is it possible to make the same type of installation of Windows 2000 and Windows XP(PRO)? Best Regards.... Retro....

I have a problem disabling the Internet Connection Wizard under my unattended Win2k Pro installation i have tried the following reg tweaks to remove it: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel] Connection Wizard [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel] Connwiz Admin Lock they have been set by a DWORD value of 1 i have tried using them at the same time and only 1 of the time, but the wizard still pops up the internet Explorer is Version 6 if any off you has any suggestions please tell me so im all out of ideas now

in Winnt.sif in my [GuiRunOnce] i have 3 scripts install.bat hotfixes.bat and removing.bat SVCPACK.inf that file installs all my hotfixes and also the IE ver 6 that works fine under the installation i have tried adding the attached file to the scripts here but that is where the error occurs. any ideas now? Install.bat i use that to install programs like WinRAR and WMP9 etc. Hotfixes.bat i use this one to install hotfixes for WMP9 Removing.bat to delete $oem$ created folders after install and reboot the machine

I Have tried that, but i still doesn't work i get a Rundl32.dll error... any1 else got some suggestions?

I have a problem with my Win2k installation. it install itself nicely until you get into Win2k the first time and it should start to install all the programs i defined in my batch install scripts. but instead it hangs just showing the background image of win2k and the cursor. i can press CTRL+ALT+DELETE to get the windows Job Manager and start explorer.exe myself. and when the machine has rebooted, it starts the batch install scripts.... i hope you guys have all the info you need or else ask for more my conf files are as follows: Winnt.sif [Data] AutoPartition=0 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes" [Unattended] OemPreinstall=Yes WaitForReboot=No FileSystem=* UnattendSwitch=yes UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes TargetPath=\WINDOWS OemPnPDriversPath="Drivers\Matsonic\Chipset;Drivers\Asus533\Chipset;Drivers\Asus800\Chipset;Drivers\mb133\Chipset;Drivers\NvGrafik;Drivers\Matsonic\Grafik;Drivers\Asus533\Grafik;Drivers\Asus800\Grafik;Drivers\mb133\Grafik;Drivers\Matsonic\LAN;Drivers\Asus533\LAN;Drivers\Asus800\LAN;Drivers\mb133\LAN;Drivers\Matsonic\lyd;Drivers\Asus533\Lyd;Drivers\Asus800\Lyd;Drivers\mb133\lyd;\Drivers\Dlink" DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore [GuiUnattended] AdminPassword=* EncryptedAdminPassword=NO OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=105 OemSkipWelcome=1 AutoLogon=Yes AutoLogonCount=1 [UserData] ProductID = FullName="Euc Midt" OrgName="Euc Midt" ComputerName=* [Display] BitsPerPel=32 Xresolution=1024 YResolution=768 Vrefresh=60 [RegionalSettings] LanguageGroup=1 Language=00000406 [Identification] JoinWorkgroup=WORKGROUP [Networking] InstallDefaultComponents=Yes [Components] msnexplr=off msmsgs=off zonegames=off [Shell] DefaultStartPanelOff=Yes [GuiRunOnce] %systemdrive%\install\install.bat %systemdrive%\install\\hotfixes\hotfixes.cmd %systemdrive%\install\hotfixes\removing.cmd Svcpack.inf [Version] Signature="$Windows NT$" MajorVersion=5 MinorVersion=0 BuildNumber=2195 [SetupData] CatalogSubDir="\i386\Update" [ProductCatalogsToInstall] [SetupHotfixesToRun] ie6setup.exe /Q:A /R:N KB822603.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB842526.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB841872.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB828749.exe /Q /O /N /Z Q329115.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB826232.exe /Q /O /N /Z 823559.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB82088.exe /Q /O /N /Z 822831.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB837272.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB823182.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB824105.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB825119.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB826939.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB828035.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB828741.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB835732.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB837001.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB839645.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB840315.exe /Q /O /N /Z KB841873.exe /Q /O /N /Z 814078.exe /Q:A /R:N KB823353.exe /Q:A /R:N KB867801.exe /Q:A /R:N KB870669.exe /Q:A /R:N qchain.exe My own install scripts.

Thank you very much for the answers i used jrzycrim example code, cause my script is in the install directory... i works perfectly now

i have created a Unattended Windows XP Pro installation. i have used the $oem$ structure to install programs like Winrar and Adobe Reader. but when the installation is complete, the directories in which the executables lie, isn't removed. i have tried making a batch script that removes the folders and reboot the PC. it looks like this: this script is run from winnt.sif [GuiRunOnce] section but it only removes the install directory and does nothing more. but if i take the script and run it after the installation is complete it works perfectly. can someone give some hints/help?
