@ZileXa This will not shrink the installer. Everything is there, you just tell the MST file what to install. This is for people who do not want to depend on third party releases and want to update their unattended DVD their own way. @Pgase After you extract Nero using WinRAR, run SetupX.exe until the first installation window appears. Then press cancel. This will extract all the files needed, and you will not get that error when you try to create an administrative install.

Using this method, you will NOT have to download 400MB of trial software from the Installshield servers, or waste your bandwidth until the Installshield software downloads 1000 dependencies from the Microsoft servers. Also, you do NOT temper with the MSI file, you just guide the installation through an MST file. - Download Nero, extract with WinRAR, and create admin install. (msiexec /a Nero.msi) - Download and install Orca. It's free! (1.5MB) - Right-click on Nero.msi (The administrative install) and choose 'Edit with Orca'. - Click "Transform" and "New Transform" - On the "Tables" menu choose "Condition" To remove components, change "1" to "0".

Save as Unattended.MST - Install Nero, using: Nero.msi TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb REBOOT=ReallySuppress STARTPARAM="CallFromExe" DONOTRUNSETUPX="1" MSISOURCEFILE="Nero.msi" - To register Nero use this regtweak: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ahead\Installation\Families\Nero 7\Info] "Version"="7.2.3.2" "User"="Your User Info" "Company"="Your Company Info" "EulaAccepted"="1" "Serial7_1151310956"="XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX" So your RunOnceEx.cmd should look like this: REG ADD %KEY%\010 /VE /D "Nero Burning Rom v7.2.3.2b" /f REG ADD %KEY%\010 /V 1 /D "REGEDIT /S %CDROM%\Software\Nero\Nero.reg" /f REG ADD %KEY%\010 /V 2 /D "%CDROM%\Software\Nero\nero.msi TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb REBOOT=ReallySuppress STARTPARAM=\"CallFromExe\" DONOTRUNSETUPX=\"1\" MSISOURCEFILE=\"Nero.msi\"" /f Note that the reg file is installed first, so that Nero will know that you have the serial number.

This is not working with nero 7.2.3.2. At least with the demo version. EDIT Does not work with premium version either.

Thank you for your replies. I found a way of not even installing the service. I just deleted the RichVideo folder, and in Custom.ini I changed RichVideo=1 to RichVideo=0

After the unattended installation of PowerDVD 7 Deluxe, I have a new service runing in the backround, called RichVideo.exe. In the services list, it's called "Cyberlink RichVideo Service(CRVS). It's a useless service, and all it does is waste my computer resources. I need to remove it during the unattended installation. Any ideas how? Thanks

What program are you using to create the mst files?

Still, same problem. The only update I could install with this method is KB905645. The rest of the updates (KB907417,KB911961) ask for the CD to finish the installation, although I downloaded the KB******-FullFile.exe versions.

This is great! RunOnceEx will do just fine. And the updates get installed without asking for the original office CD? Thanks.

From what I've seen so far, it cannot be done, but since I would really like to do it, I have to ask. Is there a way to install all the MS patches that have been released after Office 2003 SP2, during/after the Office 2003 unattended installation? I want to avoid slipstreaming as much as possible, and use an "SVCPACK.inf" method for office patches. Just like windows patches. I believe that the reason it cannot be done, is because during the patches installation, the office 2003 installation CD is required. If there was a way to tell each patch where the CD is, then it would probably continue installing without asking for it. Any ideas?

You were right. KB883667 does work! I have no idea what was wrong with my I386, but as soon as I re-copied it from the CD to my HDD, and tried to slipstream KB883667, it all went very smooth. Then I did a fresh install on the laptop, and there were no popups asking for drivers. Perfect!

This is the best, fastest and easiest way.

I am currently using the Drivers from CD: Simple Method, as suggested in this topic to solve the problem of the Unattend Install Prompting For Monitor Driver.

Can anyone take a guess what's wrong here? svcpack.inf installs media player 10 FIRST. THEN it starts installing patches. When it comes to installing KB911565 it does NOT install it. When windows boots and I manually install it with the same switches it installs just fine. Or when automatic update runs it downloads and installs it just fine.

I know, thanks, but I prefer having all the Microsoft patches in the svcpack folder. It’s a way to keep things organized.

it works when the patch is installed afterwards, but not during unattended installation.

I don't get it. I can't install the patch for wmp10 after installing wmp10? Where's the logic in that?

I'm sure it's wmp10. I checked it.

THE TITLE SHOULD BE KB911565. I CANT EDIT IT THOUGH SO CONSIDER KB911564 TO BE WRONG Windows media player installs through svcpack.inf, as the first application. All the other updates follow. Attached is the svcpack folder. When installation finishes, KB911565 is not installed. What I'm I doing wrong here?

Well, today I tried intergrading KB883667 too. It wouldn't let me, since I already have SP2 and all the updates. So I guess there is no solution for this problem.

I have the same problem. During hardware detection, the «Found New Hardware» wizard pops up and asks me to click "Next" so that it can find the proper drivers for "Plug and Play Monitor" When I click "Next" it just installs it, without me having to do anything. I was going to install KB883667 but then I read that this patch is for fixing windows from hanging while installing the video driver, which is not my case (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=883667). My setup does not hang, it just asks for the driver. It seems that this problem mostly occurs on laptops. I am using an HP Compaq nx6110

I've contacted the author, and this is their reply: Regarding your query, the license information for the program is stored in environment variables and is not accessible What does that mean? And is it really not accessible? Thanks

another way REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\software\autoit3.exe \"%~dp0install_avant.au3\"" /f

Like I said
