Thnx for the replies @ Rocky, i'm not starved for space, i can burn onto a DVD. @ Bashrat, what do you mean by making the window CD system dependent?

hello, i'm having problems picking out the essential files for all of my motherboard's components i.e. USB2.0, gigabitLAN, Ultra ATA, RAID, etc. the install disk that came with my MB has a very nice and sleek GUI in that you pick what you want to install and it does it (it's a Gigabyte 8KNXP btw). now, since these drivers come in self extracting setup files...wouldn't it be easier to have them run just like normal apps as part of RunOnceEx? Thanx for any info

i'm having a similar problem with my cleanup.cmd. It used to work, then i started adding other clean-up commands to it so it looks like this. now the only thing that works is the shutdown command which triggers. Can anybody see any mistakes and please show me how it's done? Thankx very much P.S. could someone tell me the command for deleting only the shortcuts under the logged in user? cmdow @ /HID shutdown.exe -r -f -t 90 -c "Windows XP will now restart in 90 seconds...giving enough time for shortcuts to update and for the shell to fully load before restarting" net user aspnet /delete DEL "%allusersprofile%\desktop\Adobe Reader 6.lnk" DEL "%allusersprofile%\start menu\Programs\Adobe Reader 6.lnk" DEL "%allusersprofile%\start menu\Programs\PrintMe Internet Printing" DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Windows Update.lnk" DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Set Program Access and Defaults.lnk" DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Windows Catalog.lnk" DEL "%allusersprofile%\start menu\WinZip.lnk" DEL "%allusersprofile%\desktop\WinZip.lnk" DEL "%allusersprofile%\start menu\Programs\WinZip\Uninstall WinZip.lnk" DEL "%allusersprofile%\start menu\Programs\WinZip\Help Manual.lnk" DEL "%allusersprofile%\start menu\Programs\WinZip\ReadMe.txt.lnk" DEL "%allusersprofile%\start menu\Programs\WinZip\What's New.lnk" DEL "%allusersprofile%\desktop\Kazaa Lite K++.lnk" DEL "%allusersprofile%\desktop\Microsoft Mouse.lnk" DEL "%allusersprofile%\desktop\Nero StartSmart.lnk" DEL "%allusersprofile%\desktop\Spybot - Search & Destroy.lnk" RD /S /Q "%systemroot%\Cache\Adobe Reader 6\" RD /S /Q %systemdrive%\Drivers\ RD /S /Q %systemdrive%\install\ EXIT

it's ok, i got it working now, thanx

ok, this is my taskkill for ISOBuster1.6 do i need to add 1.6 to this line as well, or just leave it as it is? B]REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 3 /D "taskkill /F /IM isobuster.exe" /f thanx

thanx, i'll try it.

i've done that, how do i integrate that into the runonceex file? would it be REG ADD %KEY%\025 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\Install\WMP10\MP10Setup.exe with none of the switches? Thankx

does taskkill work in the runonceex file or is it just for the start.cmd?

ok, thanx for the reply. i'll run it as a batch file

Hello everyone, i've been following the threads in this incredible forum for a while now and i'm slowly building my knowledge about unattended installs and app switches etc. so far i've slipstreamed SP2 into XPPro and was thinking of installing it on a formatted HD but i kept reading about how the members on here were testing out their switches and ironing out bugs in their runonce and winnt.sif files, and it made me wonder: is there any way of actually just testing the winnt.sif and runonce.cmd files or do i have to use VMWare or VPC with an .iso or a burnt copy of XP? i know installation of XP can only take about 20mins on my machine but having to do all that and to find a stumbling block at the last hurdle is a pain in the rear end. Any relevant help would be greatly appreciated. Thanx
