Hello, you might want to search for "InputLocale" in the [RegionalSettings] in your sif file. There is a lot of stuff you can add there. I have myself added stuff for two keybopard configuration (french and english). Why not give a look into the ref.chm you have in the Windows XP SP2 Deployment Kit. The file link directly to all option you can add there. Hope this help!

Is there any way to disable the autoupdate with a command line or mst transform file?

You should use the "SEARCH" button there is tons of posts about that one. Thanks

No. I passed this one for now... working on other installation. Are you working with GPO?

After trying several thing over the last week on this. I've found that: When the subkey folder created with the installer, i can add registry key without a problem. When subkey are created with the installer, there are no error when installing, but the key isnt created... And of course, the key I want to add is in a subkey where the installer has created other registry key.... Ill try more shortly....

Just trying to put my topic on top to help reply possibility.

Hello all! Another question for unattended application setup. Ok so here it is: Right now I'm working on a couple project with MSI/MST with GPO. Some application are completly configured the way I want with only a MST applied to the MSI. But some application are not. That is the case with QuickTime 7 wich I've been able to run it in GPO. The thing is I want to apply some settings (reg key) for this application. Working only with Orca for now, is there any way to import registry key with Orca or any other FREE msi tool. Thanks!

Hello, I'm trying to get an unattended installation of the new Eudora 7. I've tried so far two solution: the autoit and the answer file created with the "-r" switch Here is my setup.iss file: Now the problem with both installation process (autoit and answer file) is that the installation does not create the mail folder is the user profile (application data folder). It create the mailboxes in the installation program file (i.e. c:\program files\qualcomm\eudora), wich is annoying because our system use a lot of profile on the same computer. I'd like to know also how ti integrate how serial/licence code in it too. Thanks all for your help!

Add on your cd a directory "$OEM$" In this directory, create a file named "cmdlines.txt" In this file add this: Now, during installation, insert your diskette wich contain your reg file (regtweaks.reg) and you're done

I've personnaly let this one out of my configuration.... I've spent hours on this... still no success.... good luck tough

At this time no, it looks like this tweak is the same kind as quicklaunch is.... Maybe someone did this one, but I don't know it yet. Good luck!

I know that you can easily deploy Matlab using some config file. Read the doc located on the CD. I can't provide you more information on this, since i got a new job and i'm not working anymore with Matlab. But i know you can automate it Good Luck.

Is there any way to retrieve the %PASSWORD% value entered in the CIW to put them in the sif file?

Difference between this: CreateComputerAccountInDomain=Yes DoOldStyleDomainJoin=Yes And this: DomainAdmin=%USERNAME% DomainAdminPassword=%PASSWORD%

It worked, thank you! Could you explain me the difference between the 2 methods?

Hello all! I've been working on this one for like 1 week and haven't found anything yet. When im logging to CIW i log on with my domain admin account, so i get full privilege over the network. When deploing workstation thru RIS, my .sif include a section where it tries to join my domain. It in my sif fileive got somehting like this: [identification] JoinDomain=%SERVERDOMAIN% DomainAdmin=%USERNAME% DomainAdminPassword=%PASSWORD% The problem here is when it change the value for the one i provided in the CIW, all value are ok except the password that stays to %PASSWORD%. Then, worst of it, it lock down my account because it tries a lot of time. Anyone has a clue on this one. Thank you

Thank you for this info. This might be useful when you corporate environment has tons of computer.

Darn....tough i solved my problem....seems like RIS variable are having problem to get converted into .sif file........ Still working on it.....

Hello all! I've got something really strange now. I've worked for a couple weeks on a RIS project. Now that everything was working fine, we decide to move from test environment to production environment. Now i've got a strange problem. My unattended setup can't join the domain, and worst of all, the account used for joining domain is locked out!!! Once Windows is installed completly, and account is unlock, i can join domain with the same account!!!! Anyone has a clue on this one? Thank you for you help!
