Yup, 1.1 will incorporate one and a half year of development since 1.0. I'll probably be switching to Deer Park if it doesn't break too many extensions.

Quick question: are you using an SFX-archive? If not, try it, it copies the data to the hard disk first. Maybe that's why I'm not having problems. :/ edit= that tool DiGGiTY supplied looks interesting to mess around with... if only I had more time.

Okay, it _might_ give problems. It works for me tho. Maybe it can be fixed, I should look into it. Gimme a day or so.

Yes, you can. But you have to adjust _every_ registrykey referring to it. I don't advice it.

Why? The way applications are installed during T12 are identical to the way they are installed during logged on. Only difference it's under Admin/Default User -> All personal config is used for every user. The only error that Office (sometimes) gives, is a reg-write value related to Error Reporting. This value is restored every time you launch an Office-app. But, hey, do whatever you want. I'm just defending my method.

Install it at T-12

Drivers install automatically with MSI

Look up "RGBA"-values

<span style='font-size:9pt;line-height:100%'> </span>Alright, a totally new feature today. First, "/ew", use it like this: cdswitch /ew This will write ALL CD/DVD-drivelettres to its own variable. For instance, if you have "d:" and "e:", those will be written under "CD1" and "CD2". So this batchcode: @echo off echo %CD1% echo %CD2% will output this: d: e: Jay! To delete those variables again: cdswitch /ed And then there's "/eg", I'll explain that another time. <span style='font-size:12pt;line-height:100%'> You can download CDswitch 0.6b here (179k).</span>

First thing's first: don't use v0.5. It contains a bug which breaks some parameters (autorun and application). I've compiled a new version with just the fix of this bug. It's available in the first post. <span style='font-size:9pt;line-height:100%'> </span>Please update to THAT version, as 0.5 well... sucks. <span style='font-size:12pt;line-height:100%'> You can download CDswitch 0.5rv1 here (180k).</span> Next, 0.6a is done: <span style='font-size:9pt;line-height:100%'> </span>Well, this release is a huge step forward in stability. Featurewise it also has some new stuff. First, the "/r" parameter can now be extended with the "/w" parameter. When both are used, cdswitch will wait (hidden) on the launched app to finish. This is useful for single-app discs. Say, you have Office on only one disc. You now only need one entry anymore (I'll give a quick RunOnceEx example): REG ADD %KEY%30 /VE /D "Application whatever" /f REG ADD %KEY%30 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Setup.exe -s" /f REG ADD %KEY%35 /VE /D "Office 2003" /f REG ADD %KEY%35 /V 1 /D "cdswitch OFFICE_2003 %CDROM% /r:"%CDROM%\SETUP.EXE TRANSFORM=Unattended.MST /QB-" /w" /f REG ADD %KEY%40 /VE /D "Shutdown and reboot, or insert next disc, or switch back" /f REG ADD %KEY%40 /V 1 /D "blah!" /f Also, you can navigate with the "/p", this has now been improved. If your picture is one dir back, you can navigate to it: cdswitch blah! d: /p:..\groovy.jpg Finally, silent mode can use the "variations" to disc-supplying: So instead of "cdswitch /s /o d:" you can now use: cdswitch /s /o d or when you want to eject the first drive: cdswitch /s /o 1 Same applies for the "/s /c"mode. <span style='font-size:12pt;line-height:100%'> You can download CDswitch 0.6a here (179k).</span>

I use this code: Setup="VMware Tools.msi" /QN TempMode Silent=1 Overwrite=1 And I only include the folders "Program Files" and "System32" and the file "VMware Tools.msi"

In VMware click "Install VMware Tools". Copy data from mounted image to your host OS Pack it into an SFX-archive (or not) and use the "/QN"-parameter. So no, nothing more is needed. Drivers and tools will be installed. I even think that the Tools don't install when you try to install it onto a normal OS.

First, please don't bump old topics. Next, XplodeGFXInstall uses transparency, that's why you can't have text in winntbbu.

The real Avalon isn't even shown yet.

Here's another one: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/fir...2.installer.exe

Yup, I normally said that in my first post, looks like I've removed it when I updated it. Hey, it's AutoIt or .NET, But I reconned people don't want to install runtimes first.

I was thinking about a complete package in the future. But for now I would like to keep it simple.

Well, I've updated the documentation (aka "the first post") again.

It's in your Firefox-profile. Go to "C:\Documents and settings\YOUR NAME\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\ProfilesRANDONNAME. It's there.

browser.download.useDownloadDir

No parameters are needed. Anyone care testing this version? It should work on any language-version now (well, using the Latin character set ). It doesn't have a passphrase, but AutoIt is pretty easy to hack 'nyway. a** I previously said, I'll explain the code when I have the time (not that it's too hard).

Second, did you even look at the examples? I learned XPlode with them in less than two minutes.

Ah crap, I forgot the change the example. The switch is "/r", not /a cdswitch OFFICE d /r:"%CDROM%\SETUP.EXE TRANSFORMS=Office.MST /qb-" /d But anyway, I recommend not using it in your situation. If you use the code above, your RunOnceEx will detect cdswitch exiting, and continue, but in the meanwhile Office setup has started. You can always use a batchfile or RunOnceEx on the disc itself though, then "/r" would be useful. And glad to hear the autorun-issue is solved

OpenOffice 2.0 has an MSI. Jut use "/QN". And VMware ALWAYS has that resolution. Use VidChngr to change it during your install.
