I get a solution from http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=15884&st=70 I will add bold to differences Assuming you've installed and activated your NIS 1- Making a new (subtle) CfgWiz.exe If you open your original folder of NIS, you'll find a file named CfgWiz.exe in this directory: X:\...\...\NIS\External\CommonFi\SYMSHARE\CfgWiz.exe and in X:\...\...\NIS\\SETUP\SYMLT\COMMON\SYMSHARE You can find a copy of this file in: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\CfgWiz.exe Also, the activated file symlcsys.dll is found in: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\CCPD-LC\symlcsys.dll 1. Now, create a new folder in any location on your hard disk and name it ABC, for example. Copy CfgWiz.exe from its location and paste it to ABC. Eliminate the read-only property of CfgWiz.exe, then rename it to xCfgWiz.exe 2. Inside the folder ABC, create a new folder and name it CCPD-LC Copy symlcsys.dll from its location and paste it into the new folder CCPD-LC If you can't copy symlcsys.dll from its location and paste it easily, then open your Task Manager and terminate the process "symlcsys.exe" first. 3. Now, open WinRAR. Go to: File --> Browse for folder. Browse to the new folder ABC. . Highlight both CCPD-LC and xCfgWiz.exe . Go to: Commands --> Add files to archive, The "Archive name and parameters" dialog box appears. On the "General" tab, press the button "Profiles..." and choose "Default Profile". . Still On the "General" tab, in the field "Archive name", type CfgWiz.exe Then, choose these parameters: - Archive format: RAR - Compression method: Best - Archiving options: Create SFX archive You don't need to play with other parameters. . Go to "Advanced" tab. Press the button "SFX options". The "Advanced SFX Options" dialog box appears. On the "General" tab, in the field "Path to extract", type: %systemdrive%\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\ Then, choose "Create in the current folder". . Go to "Modes" tab, choose: Hide all + Overwrite all files. . Press "OK" on all dialogs, then close WinRAR. Now, you should find "CfgWiz.exe" inside the folder ABC. We'll need it later. 2- Now Copy your original folder of Norton to C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\Install\, then rename it to NIS2004. 1. Replace the original file CfgWiz.exe in: C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\Install\NIS2004\NAV\External\CommonFi\SYMSHARE\ and in : C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\Install\NIS2004\\SETUP\SYMLT\COMMON\SYMSHARE\ with the CfgWiz.exe you've made in the first step. Now, delete the entire folder ABC. It's no longer needed. 3- CD-Key Inside NIS2004, create a new text file and name it navreg.reg, but not navreg.reg.txt Copy the following then paste into navreg.reg. Replace the xs with your key, but without typing dashes: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symantec\CCPD-LC\KStore\00000082\0000000e\0000000a] "Key"="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" No more reg files needed. Thanks to Stalkie. 4- Virus definitions updates If you wish, you can go to this link to download an updater file: http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcen...ges/US-N95.html The file to download is named somewhat like this: 20040331-019-i32.exe Extract the file into C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\Install\NIS2004\VIRUSDEF\ using WinRAR. Extracted files should replace the original ones. Thanks to vohinhlangtu for the idea, and Nooto for the link. 5- Batch file ECHO. ECHO Registering NIS Pro 2004 REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\Install\NIS2004\navreg.reg ECHO. ECHO Installing NIS Pro 2004 start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\NIS2004\NAVSETUP.exe /qb sleep 10 del "%systemdrive%\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\CfgWiz.exe" ren "%systemdrive%\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\xCfgWiz.exe" CfgWiz.exe ECHO. If you use this approach, then you have to download sleep.zip from http://unattended.msfn.org/files/sleep.zip. Extract sleep.exe and put it in C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$$\System32\, so that it will be copied to your C:\Windows\System32\ before you install NAV. BUT THERE is a problem with this batch actually NIS need to restart so what is the command line switch to prevent it from restarting
