[ATI Remote wonder & HP software]

hey yal trying to silently install ATi remote wonder 2.3 as well as my Hp software/drivers for my printer, scanner, dvd rw, and camera but it looks as if the setup.exe was created by somethign other then windows msi and installshield.... as i cant use any of the /r functions in command prompt!

[scripting runonceex]

hey yall

im going to be doing a multiple windowed approach to my guirunonce...

i have some installshield apps that will be included int this and i am just wondering how i might display the apps being installed in the window while the .cmd file is being executed????

for example (i know this isnt right probably but gives you the idea

REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "Installing Adobe Software" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\080 /V 1 /D "c:\\install\\applications\\installshield.cmd" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\081 /v 2 /D "Adobe Photoshop CS" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\082 /v 3 /D "Adobe Premier 6.0" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\083 /v 4 /D "Adobe Illustrator 10" /f

how would i change that so that the widnow would display this:

-------------------------------------------

Installing Adobe Software

-Adobe Photoshop CS

-Adobe Premier 6.0

-Adobe Illustrator 10

------------------------------------------

i guess there woudl be no moving arrow int his situation but it doesnt matter unless anyone has a suggestion ..... but i just want the window to display what is beign installed at the moment the .cmd file is running...

THANKS!!!!

Great! tahnsk for the help i c that it's installinf fine and all.

is there any way to show a visual cue as to when it's done installing???

also for my batch install file... how would i script this if i have several items so that they all dont start at once? i believe its using the /wait switch but correct em if i'm wrong. so would this example be correct???

ie... if i have the following

echo.

echo Installing MS Office 2003 Pro

ECHO Please wait...

start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\Office2003\setup.exe TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb-

echo.

echo. Installing Adobe Pagemaker 7.0

ECHP Please wait...

start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\Adobe\Pagemaker 7.0\setup.exe -s -f2"pagemakerlog.log"

echo.

echo. Installing Adobe Premier 6.0

ECHP Please wait...

start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\Adobe\Premier 6.0\setup.exe -s -f2"premierlog.log"

pause

exit

would this be correct???

thanks!!!

hi yall trying to do silent install of my adobe pgms so im attempting to record an .iss file and then run it, but when i run setup.exe /s it doesnt do anythign in windows or dos? any suggestions?

also is it possible to show a progress bar or something to show its working?

[Installshield - how to show progress]

Hey y'all

trying to create the setup.iss file for my adobe pgms using the setup.exe /r on each setup and i have succesfully created a setup.iss file for each.

then when i try to test the silent install i've copied the appropriate setup.iss file to the same folder the setup.exe file is in then i run setup.exe /s from command prompt.

i bleive these steps are correct but when i run that last lien to test the install nothing shows up at all..... i believe this is normal? but if so is there a way to show a progress screen for it so you know the install has successfully finished?

thanks!

[Please help me with winnt.sif]

i am attempting to do the same thing ( i am a newbie so i appologize if this is repetition) but..... just so i understnad this correctly.....

if i add the lines

[data]

Autopartition = 1

[unattended]

Repartition = Yes

this will automatically delete all partitions on my primary HD in this case C:\ and then create 1 partition that is the complete size of my c:\ which would be approx 120GB in my case and then quick format the new single partition using NTFS?

if this is the correct understnading then great!

thanks for all of your help!

also, anyone know how to do unattended setup like this but with it autoamtically creating multiple partitions of specific sizes??? I am going to be workign on my home server after i successfuly create a setup for my computer.

THANKS!!!!

I'm new to the whole unattended install DVD stuff, and I am in the process of creating my first one right now.. (thanks to all the forums and guides ont his site you all rule)

I am wondering if there is a way to have your unattended disk automattically delete all partitions on your main hard drive and then create only one formatted partition???

Thanks!
