After the installation of PowerDVD 6.0 some of the video file extensions are assigned to PowerDVD for playing. I would like all video files to be played with Windows Media Player 10. (mpg, mpeg, avi, wmv, asf, etc..) How can I do that? Thanks

Works perfectly. Thanks Nologic

Theoretically, the script is working. The problem is that when it gets to the second window, and has to enter the serial number, for some reason, after it enters the first 2 numbers, that window becomes inactive, and so the script cannot continue entering the serial number. Is there a workaround for this kind of problem? This is the autoit script i'm using. Run ( @ProgramFilesDir & "\Softwin\BitDefender8\bdmcon.exe" ) WinWaitActive ( "BitDefender 8 Professional Plus - Evaluation" ) Send ( "{ENTER}") WinWaitActive ( "BitDefender 8 Professional Plus - Registration" ) Send ( "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" ) Send ( "{ENTER}" ) WinWaitActive ( "Online Registration" ) Send ( "{ALTDOWN}{F4}{ALTUP}" ) WinWaitActive ( "Online Registration" ) Send ( "{ENTER}" ) EXIT And this is the screenshot, after it has entered the first 2 numbers of the registration serial, but stoppped, because for a second there, the window became inactive.

I thought that the purpose of the autoit file was to enter the serial number automatically, so that i wouldn't have to export to win.ini

I have also tried this script, but the installation stuck at the following point, as you can see on the picture. ; AutoIt Version: 3.0.102 ; Language: English ; Platform: Win9x / NT / XP ; Author: Dangerzone - Holland ; Script Function: Register Bitdefender Pro 8 Run ( @ProgramFilesDir & "\Softwin\BitDefender8\bdmcon.exe" ) WinWaitActive ( "BitDefender 8 Professional Plus - Evaluation" ) Send ( "{ENTER}") WinWaitActive ( "BitDefender Professional Plus - Registration" ) Send ( "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" ) Send ( "{ENTER}" ) WinWaitActive ( "Online Registration" ) Send ( "{ALTDOWN}{F4}{ALTUP}" ) WinWaitActive ( "Online Registration" ) Send ( "{ENTER}" ) EXIT

Nologic, i have tried your BitDefender autoit script, but after the installation of BitDefender finishes, i get the error message on the following image. What i did, is i just took your script, edited it with my serial number, and changed the "Setup File Name" variable to BitDefender.msi. Then i converted it to exe using AutoIt v3. Also, this is what i used in my RunOnceEx REG ADD %KEY%\065 /VE /D "BitDefender v8.0 Pro" /f REG ADD %KEY%\065 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\BitDefender\BitDefender.msi /qb REBOOT=Suppress SCAN=0 UPDATE=0 ICON=0" /f REG ADD %KEY%\065 /V 2 /D "%CDROM%\Software\BitDefender\Bitreg.exe" /f Also, if possible, i would like to remove the "File Zone | Net Zone" that appears by deafult after the installation of BitDefender.

Clear enough. I'm already on the search for an easier to unattendedly install antivirus

when i install with /qb switch over the .msi (admin point) after the installation finishes, scandisk starts automatically, and the registration window opens up. How do i stop these 2 actions?

This is what i use in RunOnceEx REG ADD %KEY%\060 /VE /D "BitDefender 8.0 Pro" /f REG ADD %KEY%\060 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\BitDefender\BitDefender.msi /qb REBOOT=Suppress SCAN=0 UPDATE=0 ICON=0" /f REG ADD %KEY%\060 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\BitDefender\Bitreg.exe" /f And the image shows what my error is. I am using the script Nologic posted. I converted it to exe with autoit v3

Where in win.ini do i paste the serial number? This is my current win.ini, i have bitdefender 8.0 installed, and i dont see the serial number anywhere. ; for 16-bit app support [fonts] [extensions] [mci extensions] [files] [Mail] MAPI=1 CMCDLLNAME32=mapi32.dll CMCDLLNAME=mapi.dll CMC=1 MAPIX=1 MAPIXVER=1.0.0.1 OLEMessaging=1 [MCI Extensions.BAK] aif=MPEGVideo aifc=MPEGVideo aiff=MPEGVideo asf=MPEGVideo asx=MPEGVideo au=MPEGVideo m1v=MPEGVideo m3u=MPEGVideo mp2=MPEGVideo mp2v=MPEGVideo mp3=MPEGVideo mpa=MPEGVideo mpe=MPEGVideo mpeg=MPEGVideo mpg=MPEGVideo mpv2=MPEGVideo snd=MPEGVideo wax=MPEGVideo wm=MPEGVideo wma=MPEGVideo wmv=MPEGVideo wmx=MPEGVideo wpl=MPEGVideo wvx=MPEGVideo [internal] Device=serial Install=1101932566 Install2=1120155869 Device2=serial [annie] VideoDevice=0 AudioDevice=0 FrameRate=667111 UseFrameRate=1 CaptureAudio=1 WantPreview=1 MasterStream=-1

I'm sorry, i didnt understand. What do you mean register and them back to win.ini? What is the procedure of adding the registration exactly? Is it a reg file? or something else?

How do i add my serial number in win.ini ? Example?

Thats for the retail edition. I used: Setup=setup.exe TempMode Silent=1 Overwrite=1 Title=Cyberlink PowerDVD DLX 6.0.1102

I followed the instructions here for the trial version. http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=48338 I had no mce_sym.reg file in my powerdvd folder so I used the one on the thread with my serial number. I had a powerdvd.sim in my powerdvd folder so I used that. This is what I got during the installation: What I'm I doing wrong here?

So i created my unattended DVD, with winxp, office, and all the applications i want installed. I have the image in D:\WinXP_Image\Winxp.iso I was wondering, is there a way, i can boot to dos, and run the image, so that i can install windows xp in C:\ ? D:\ is NTFS btw. So i guess that excludes dos. Anyway, i want to install WinXP, straight from the hard disk, using the unattended image i created. Possible?

Thanks for your replies. Found it. [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run] "MsnMsgr"=-

MSN Messenger has the bad habit to start after the installation. But I don't want that. So after searching the forums, I found this REG ADD %KEY%\040 /VE /D "MSN Messenger v7.0.0816" /f REG ADD %KEY%\040 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\Messenger\Messenger.msi /qb" /f REG ADD %KEY%\040 /V 2 /D "pskill.exe msnmsgr.exe" /f That doesn't work for me. I get an error message saying something about pskill (can't remember what) Is there any other way of making MSN Messenger NOT start after the first installation?

I searched, couldn't find the switches anywhere. So, how can I unattended install Macromedia Flash Player 7? Thanks

Slight problem. While creating an admin install point, I come to this screen. The CD-Key is 10 numbers long. The CD-Key I have is like this: XXXXX-XXXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX And i know it works because i have installed BitDefender before. Anyway, when I click next it just continues to create the admin point. The only reference I found for a serial number is in bdmcon.ini and it's empty, and I believe that because I left the CD-Key field in the image above empty. I also couldn't find a win.ini anywhere.

How can I silently install it, with all the updates included (cumulative.zip), and have, Antivirus, Antispam, Firewall and Auto Update enabled? (Basically all of these are enabled by default if you make a full install) I use RunOnceEx from CD.

Thank you

Thats the link i put on my first post. Where do put backslashes on this line? REG ADD %KEY%\020 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\MicrosoftNETframeworkv11\dotnetfx.exe /q /c:"install /q"" /f

Nevermind, I'll just use RyanVM's switchless installer. But if anyone cares to explain the backslashes & quotations thing, it would be appreciated.

I didn't understand the instructions here and i'm not sure if i need to add more backslashes in the second line. Can someone clear it for me please? Where exactly do i need more backslashes? (if i need any) REG ADD %KEY%\020 /VE /D "Microsoft .NET Framework v1.1" /f REG ADD %KEY%\020 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\MicrosoftNETframeworkv11\dotnetfx.exe /q /c:"install /q"" /f

It works, thank you
