I currently use virtualdub to join all my avi and mpeg files but cannot find a good program that can handle wmv files. I do not want to re encode the files, just piece them together into a single file as the video and audio are identical. Any suggestions?

I tried adding the autologon.reg to my cmdlines.txt and it does try to autologon Dennis, but I get an error
"The system could not log you on...." etc
I also see that the Administrator account was created?!?!?! wtf

Try the net user Dennis /add command.
http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/view/web/27/
Read the net user method.
I have no idea about your problem.
And under [guirunonce], why is it command9=blahblahblah
Shouldn't it be command0=blahblahblah
I prefer to get the oobeinfo process working as it worked before. it does not matter what number command you use, I have it at 9 because I always want this command last. I can slip in other commands easy this way. Thanks for the suggestion, but I am not looking for another way to do this.

I cannot seem to get my oobeinfo.ini working again. I had this working in the past and now it seems to be ignored.
I want to create a single account "Dennis" and have this account replace the administrator account. I do NOT want the administrator account created at all. When I go to documents and settings I only want to see a folder Dennis and All Users.
Here is what I have
OOBEINFO.INI

I am trying to build a clean autoit script for nero 7.2.0.3b that will install only the following 5 components:
nero start smart
nero burning rom
nero express
nero vision
nero recode
However, I cannot clean my current install of nero 7 out of my system. I have uninstalled it fine, I deleted nero and ahead from program files. I cleaned out the registry from HKLM, I deleted the temp files. I even deleted the ahead and nero folders from documents and settings. I download all 5 clean tools from nero's site and ran them. I have rebooted.
NOW WTF is the serial number still showing up when I do a manual install? Where the hell is nero hiding its crap that the serial number is auto put into the serial field and it even knows what applications I chose to install manually before.
I could just reformat but this is p***ing me off. I cannot stand it when an install leaves its crap all over the system.
Any help would be appreciated.

Just conpaired the config files from 7.0.8.2 and 7.2.0.3 only one line changed
7.0.8.2
INCEXCFTR (2FF8B816) (Actions) NeroHome INCLUDE
7.2.0.3
INCEXCFTR (2FF8B816) (Features) NeroHome INCLUDE
Interesting, has to be a simple syntax fix then, just no idea on how to do it. We definately need BoardBabe's help.

However if their is interest I can build a special version. Just tell me which components you would like to have kept.
What would really be appreciated is a silent installer that includes everything except the following:
Nero Scout
Nero Home
Nero PhotoSnap
Nero PhotoSnap Viewer
Nero MediaHome
InCD
Nero ShowTime
Nero BackItUp
Nero SoundBox
Now that the old 'AutoIt Script' for nero 7 no longer works for the latest nero release such a installer would really be very usefull for a lot of people for whom space is not issue but the presence of certain nero features is. Specially the crappy Nero Scout and Nero Showtime. Maybe you cna just guide us as to how we can make such an installer.
Thanks,
Sanjay
I also second that!

bummers, still no response on this script? Anyone willing to share their own autoit script that works for 7.2.0.3? I cannot seem to figure out why the script stopped working, been playing with it for a few hours. Odd.

Just upgraded to the new 4.3.5 version and would like to offer the following suggestions:
1. If you use exclusions (excl) then the multi check does not work properly. It will check all and the excl will not be selected as it should but you cannot click the multi again to uncheck everything in that category. Instead you have to use uncheck all to remove the checks. It would be ideal if when checking the multi it would check all but the excl but still show a check in the multi box and when you remove the check it removes all checks from that category.
2. I have so many entries now in my wpi that it loads very slow. It would be nice to implement a select box similar to the configs choices that would load a seperate config.js file. For instance I made a full page of regsitry changes that would be ideal for a seperate config.js file. When I wanted registry choices in wpi I could just select another config.js file and wpi would load that file. This way wpi would load quicker as it would not need to scan through one huge config.js file.

Anyone seen this before? When I go to burn my CD nero complains and says it needs to rename these 3 files in the \i386\WinSxS\Manifests folder
x86_policy.5.1.Microsoft.Windows.SystemCompatible_6595b64144ccf1df_5.1.2600.2000_x-ww_e037a8a.Manifest
x86_policy.6.0.Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0.2600.2180_x-ww_eb84b25e.Manifest
x86_policy.7.0.Microsoft.Windows.CPlusPlusRuntime_6595b64144ccf1df_7.0.2600.2180_x-ww_cf5111a1.Manifest
It says it has to rename the files to be compatible with the cd file system.
I am using nero ultra 6.6.0.16
I am using cdshell as the boot loader and have several .igz .img floppy images, INSERT, and ubcd for windows.
These are the settings I am using for nero

use a reg file? I fail to see how that would prevent these two items from being installed? I use reg files to config options post install but not sure how it can prevent something from installing? Am I missing something?

I was able to do an admin install which asked for the serial, it accepted it fine and a silent install worked using the the files made from the admin install. I used
msiexec /i pspx.msi /qb
However, I would like to make a silent install that does not install the thumbnail and browse with paint shop options. During a manual install you can uncheck these, but how do you not install these for an unattended install?

wow, talk about using a sledge hammer to kill a fly. Keep it simple. This is how I do it.
Call install.cmd from winnt.sif

xcopy %CDROM%\i386\*.* %SystemDrive%\Support\i386\ /e /i /h /y
rem adds source location for i386 to registry

I have CAT files for all the hotfixes that the integrated switch worked for, but for the non hotfixes and ones that integrate does not work, where do you get the CAT file? For instance the CAT files for these (KB885835 and KB885250)

ahhh, the light is starting to flicker. OK so make another chalk mark on your board for another poster who did not read all 15 pages thourough enough.
Can you add that reg entry to the front page just like you did for
KB873374 -› Microsoft GDI+ Detection Tool
Download -› 216 KB (September 21, 2004)
Switches: KB873374.exe /Q:A /R:N (HALT BOX)
import this registry setting instead:
REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\GdiDetectionTool" /v "GDITool" /t REG_DWORD /d "00000001" /fLike this
*** NEW ***
KB890830 -› Microsoft® Windows® Malicious Software Removal Tool V1.2
Download -› 256 KB (March 8, 2005)
Switches: KB890830.exe /q (cannot use the /integrate; option)
import this registry setting instead:
REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\RemovalTools\MRT" /v "Version" /t REG_SZ /d "F8327EEF-52AA-439A-9950-CE33CF0D4FDD" /fI think this will solve a lot of the confusion.

You'll have to update your registry tweak every month to take care of KB890830...
Which reg tweak are you refering to? I feel like an id*** here, why am I not getting this? Or did I join the conversation way to late to get the picture.
The only reg tweak I have is
REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\GdiDetectionTool" /v "GDITool" /t REG_DWORD /d "00000001" /f
and as far as I know at this point it has NOTHING at all to do with KB890830. That reg tweak is to deal with KB873374 not KB890830.
If I am wrong then this thread needs some work for those trying to figure this out who came late to the party.
And I am still confused about KB885835, I did another clean XP SP2 test and applied my list of updates and KB885835 worked this time but then another update gave that error I posted in a screen shot above.
arrrrgh!

Ryan,
I have read that answer many times about this being answered many times. But the point is it is still not clear. The only reg add I see on the front page is for this
KB873374 -› Microsoft GDI+ Detection ToolDownload -› 216 KB (September 21, 2004)
Switches: KB873374.exe /Q:A /R:N (HALT BOX)
import this registry setting instead:
REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\GdiDetectionTool" /v "GDITool" /t REG_DWORD /d "00000001" /f
Are you saying that that registry entry also takes care of KB890830?
And what about KB885835? Any ideas why I am seeing that error?
Is there a certain order that the updates need to be integrated in?
Sorry for the hassel on this for the probably 100th time you have seen it, but if people are still asking this, then the many posts on it are still confusing. If there is a reg entry for KB890830 and it is the same for KB873374 then lets add that line to the KB890830, because at the moment the front page for KB890830 does not mention a reg add it only says cannot use integrate, which left me thinking ok so then what?

I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong trying to integrate KB885835
when I run this
C:\XPCD-SP2Updates\WindowsXP-KB885835-x86-ENU.exe /integrate:C:\ZZXPCD
I get this error
Also I seem to have integrated all the updates but as many have posted on this thread I am having issues with
KB885835
KB890830
I am still confused after reading for a few hours on these two. It would be nice if there were instructions on the ones that do not work with /integrate swith right on the front page here. It is frustrating to spend hours searching the thread if someone has already gone through the pain and solved it. If the answer is already posted somewhere can someone show me where I missed it?

Well, I mean why using finding directory or file on cdrom and list through all cdrom lists if U can just use wmi class and ask
cdrom where mediumloaded=1 and mediumname=XP set cdrom=cdromdrive.
Using vbscript or wmic...
BTW I am big enemy of stars, avatart etc
Like simple text interface insteadSoulin,
Can you explain further how to do this using wmi? Do you have a script that is working that you can share? Seems like a better way to go.

Nevermind, I think I found the problem. The code is wrong and someone has probably already told hasi by now but the cmd file is wrong for the pathing.
There should be no \ after %WPIPATH% since %WPIPATH% already includes. Currently the resulting code was trying to import the reg file using this path
regedit /S "%WPIPATH%\common\wpi.reg"
which in turn translates to this
regedit /S "F:\wpi\\common\wpi.reg"so the double quote after wpi was causing it to fail. Same with cmdow.

MCT,
What settings did you use to prevent picasa from loading after install? So far this is what I am using but it still pops up after I install silent.
reg add HKCU\Software\Google\Picasa\Picasa2\Preferences\HotFolders /v 0 /d "%USERPROFILE%\My Documents\My Pictures\\" /f
reg add HKCU\Software\Google\Picasa\Picasa2\Preferences\HotFolders /v 1 /d "%USERPROFILE%\My Documents\\" /f
reg add HKCU\Software\Google\Picasa\Picasa2\Preferences\HotFolders /v 2 /d "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\\" /fDennis

I am running wpi using the .cmd file included which is successfully importing the reg file with the styles fix. However unless you reboot you still see the error with a script causing your computer to slow down. Since I tend to run wpi on the fly via a USB pen drive or via a WPI CD there is no T-13 to take advantage of. Unless I import the reg file then reboot and run wpi I have this problem. What is the latest on this? Any work around if you are not using wpi on an unattended xp where you can use the t-13 to import the reg?

Faster load time with IE7 installed on system. White screen shows for a long time before the wpi screen comes up.
