ok then wen ur settin up ur xp instll cd the batch file has commands like ECHO. ECHO Installing WinRAR 3.41 ECHO Please wait... start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\WinRAR\wrar341.exe /s isnt that running the file from the cd?

i see alot of ppl using copy in there batch commands but they have it like copy %systemdrive%\......\.....\somefile.ext %systemdrive%\......\.....\somefile.ext so i was wondering doesn %systemdrive% refer to the CD during the installin process? so wouldnt that try to copy the file to the CD instead of teh HD?

i dont see how that could work %systemdrive at the time refers to the CD doesnt it...so your copy and mkdir commands dont make sense to me, correct me if im wrong im new to this whole thing
