Unattended tutorial on this site

I have never configured Apache to use MySQL! I use PHP functions calls like these... http://us2.php.net/mysql_connect http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-query.php

One of the distros of Scite (Scintilla) has a "macro recorder" feature. It works ok, but not recommend. Play with AutoIT a little bit, it is easy, powerful. It has good documentation also.

Cool Player...nice, little player. No frills, good for older machine. Can skin it if want. Has other plugins for new functionality.

Gadwin Print Screen freeware utility is very nice... http://www.gadwin.com/printscreen/

Is MySQL working on its own (like from command prompt viewer)? If not, get it installed properly. If running ok, not much else to do. PHP has native functions for MySQL and much info online to help. Just be sure you set up a user account in MySQL and PHP's connection call uses this account and password. All there is to it. Good luck. The Apache/PHP/MySQL combo works very well. I love it.

I did same thing and can't find drivers (cheap Belkin card). I just redid my cd again from scratch and worked fine.

I don't get it. Somebody must have been smoking something late at night when they made that thing.

@www2000 Can't see what you did to make anyone upset. AutoIT is a nice program (even though some guys around here go nuts when anyone mentions it). If you want to use it for unattend installs, only a few commands are needed. One to wait for a given screen to be active, one to send keystroke, one to send mouse click, and sleep to pause. The online documentation which comes with the program is very good. Also there is a sticky thread with a lot of scripts...look at some of those.

No, can't help with this issue. But I have tried ghosting dual boot xp/fedora2 disk in the past. Never could restore properly. Be sure you can get restore to work before rely on ghost as a backup. May have to ghost each partition rather than whole disk.

Love it! Thanks to nuhi and crew. Too bad Microsoft doesn't let you choose what components you want to install. I also use Redhat/Fedora Linux which let's you choose exactly what you want to install. Then all of the endless hours nuhi and crew put into nLite would not be required. But thankfully they do it for us.

EAC. Never heard of it before this thread. Now love it. Nice and small but still has all features I need. Not bloated like MusicMatch.

This should work. It is how I do mine. Just be careful...ANY data on ANY partition on that drive will be LOST! Backup anything you need.

DVD- Tastes Great OR Less Filling ??

Ghost does entire partition or entire drive including OS. Works well.

Deep Burner is a very nice freeware I use. Has all functions I need. Also a small program easy for unattended install. I like Roxio Easy CD/Media Creator of the commercial offerings.

Search this site. There are a few people working hard on this. Not sure which thread...SEARCH!

First time you run program, a popup asks to associate pdf files with the application.

I just downloaded and tested it. Looks very good. Opens very fast. Small program size with no installer is nice. Thanks for telling us about this program! Never did like Adobe Reader.

I used AutoIT script.

GAIM

I have an ATI and I do NOT like it. Software is poor and I get periodic BSOD's. I also hear good things about winHappauge, but have not used it.

I like it. Just started using last week. Better than Trillian. Keep up the good work. Silent install switch is /S in case you are wondering.

Is this site legitimate? Home page is...http://unitedemailsystems.com But sign-up link takes you to...http://66.199.246.10/signup.html That is a red flag to me. Phishing for personal information??
