Are you sure the firfox problem is because of being uppercase, When I make Uppercase only ERDC Images (using CDI Image GUI), FireFox works perfectly , but when I add the rest of the files of my DVD, (windows installation,...) and then the size increases, then the firefox stops working

I have set the WPI batch file to restart the computer after the installations are done, I noticed there are some errors coming up that I guess are due to shutdown, one of them complaining about Rundll32.exe: I remeber some errors about "advpack.dll" too, How can I avoid those. Edit: they disappear immediately because windows restarts and there is no side effects , I could catch this screeb by taking a movie of the screen.

There is a file assosciation windows at the end which I guess is for nero scount, does any of these switches remove those assosciations? cause by default they are to be assigned I modified my msi for some settings (eg NERO_SCOUT=FALSE) and I have made my own autoit script that removes those associations at the time of installation.

I have a serious problem here with nero 7.0.8.2 (with no content modification) trying to make a tmp folder in the CD, Installation is ok with a source with write permission, but from a readonly source, here is the error Any help is appreciated, do I have to extract the setup files form temp ? will it then work on readonly sources ? ( I doubt)

These are the 2 Autoit scripts that I've written to make Insallations and Activations of Norton AntiVirus 2006 completely automatic in any system without any need for internet connection ( or disconnection), ofcourse I have removed the Serial number from the first one (Norton), you should use your own. the 2nd script (NorAct)should be complied to .exe, in NAV2005 activation was possible at the time of installation and so everything could be done in one script, but NAV2006 requires a restart before Activation Wizard could be executed, If anyone could find a way to be able to tell the Norton that computer has restarted to let us run the activation, this could have been made easier to be done at the time of installation. Norton.au3 noract.au3

Complete Norton AntiVirus 2005 Setup and Activation, working in any computer. You should put your own serial number in the script and use another file (keygen) along the script to activate it wihtout the need for internet connection. Norton.au3

Thank your for your reply, I am working on your instructions, though I am not completely sure if I know what you meant by "run the DriverPacks BASE and choose method 1" and then "Then slipstream the DriverPacks for real, but now use method 2". I guess the First time is with the DriverPacks and the 2nd time would be without ??? My Original goel was actually,(since the Drivers are open) to Reduce the Installation time by Reducing the time that is used to copy the drivers. The CD that I making, is XPSP2, with all the updates and the drivers, which normally I wouldn't even suggest it for slower computers, But is that that much of a difference between Speed of reading from the Hard Drive or the CD Drive in a medium system.

I was wondering if it is possible using method 1, to not copy the Driver Packs to the comuter at all, since they are not compressed, why not to use the CD/DVD itself as the source of the drivers? it should be possible through winnt.sif (OemPnPDriversPath)? right? i think the problem would be how to tell winnt.sif how to find the CDDrive?

For a full unattended installation config.xml should be enough, <Display Level="full" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="no" AcceptEula="yes" /> <PIDKEY Value="*************************" /> <USERNAME Value="Customer" /> <COMPANYNAME Value="MyCompany" /> and a little Autoit script should take care of the install button, : Run ( @ScriptDir & "\" & "setup.exe" ) If WinWait("Microsoft Office Professional Enterprise Edition 12 [pre-release]", "NUIDocumentWindow") Then Send("{SPACE}") EndIf (attached the compiled Autoit code) Install.rar

I have been searching the forum for this problem, but I didn't find a direct answer, When Two MSI files are after eachother, eg, Adobe Acrobat & NetFrameWorks ,the 2nd one returns : "Another installation is already in progress. Complete that installation before proceeding with this install." how can I make it to wait for the previous one to finish before starting the next?

Today I wanted to create an updated unattended windows installation, but I ran into some problems, The Windows CD that I have, Contains the SVCPACK folder in I386, and inside the folder there are *.CA_ (CAB?) files which contain some cat files, and they have the numbers of some apparantly hotfixs (eg, KB319740.CA_ ---- KB901214.CA_ ), These files are about 6 Kb, and SVCPACK.INI is not used in I386, I want to integrate the latest hotfixes, but I don't know if those previous hotfixes are already installed or not? if yes which method has been used that involves SVCPACK folder (6kb files) but not the ini, and If I integrate using for example Integrate switch which will make the svcpack.ini, will this disable the installtion of the others? (how can I add the additional hotfixes) Thanx in advance.
