hi, i already thought about creating the links before, but i think there will be many problems if WinXP get's installed to another drive. I downloaded the shortcut.exe and will try it out but it looks way more promising than the other method. thanks cya Killer Bee

hi, i have various apps that are only copied while installation, like process explorer from winternals. Now i wanna create links to that programs unattended and i don't have a clue how to do it, any help will be appreciated. thx in advance cya Killer Bee

hi, a new hotfix is available KB832353 it's an update for 828026. MS has the following to say about it: After applying the hotfix referenced in KB article 828026, some URL script commands do not fire even though they would be expected to do so. In addition to the URL script command issues, this package addresses an issue with the installer that would cause 100% CPU utilization in certain scenarios. it looks like a Type 1 Hotfix have phun with it cya Killer Bee

hi, then please post ur winnt.sif here but be sure to remove ur Product key before posting, maybe we can see an error in there. cya Killer Bee

hi, please read this Post and provide us with a little more info about ur app. cya Killer Bee

hi, i just ran some tests with the new version and it works perfectly when the .msi is renamed to SAV.msi. sav.msi /qb LIVEUPDATE=0 REBOOT=REALLYSUPPRESS does the trick. hope this helps cya Killer Bee

hi, u could try ur CD in VMWare to decrease the number of CD's u burn with unfinished versions cya Killer Bee

hi, no problem cya Killer Bee

hi, this sounds like corrupted files. But tracking the source can get tricky. 1. it could be that the files in ur XPCD source are corrupted 2. it could get corrupted while building the ISO 3. ur PC is corrupted in some way (RAM, CPU, ...) To test it out i would recommend first installing that CD in VMWare, if it won't work either rebuild the ISO and retest it in VMWare. If this fails then copy over those files from ur original CD and rebuid and test it. If it only happens on one PC and only when u install it there then check ur Memory. Hope this helps a bit cya Killer Bee

hi, u could try this to get basic info out of the installer and post it here so we can see which installer this app uses. cya Killer Bee

hi, it would help if u could provide us with more information, like ur svcpack.inf for example. cya Killer Bee

hi, yeah, ur last code looks very promising to me if u have downloaded the PSTools from Wininternals and put them in $OEM$\$$\System32. cya Killer Bee

hi, ofcourse that's no problem. Please take a look @ the cleanup.cmd mentioned in the unattended guide. hope this helps cya Killer Bee

hi, to go with the original installer: Winamp503full.exe /S pskill winamp does the trick. If u wanna have ur old setting just search for winamp.ini on %SYSTEMDRIVE% and copy it to that location after u installed winamp. hope this helps cya Killer Bee
