After installing Windows on top of another Windows installation, it's now under the WINDOWS.0 folder. Is there any way to rename this folder back to just WINDOWS? (The computer is running perfectly well and I know that there's no need to change that folder's name. I'm just picky about names. ) Thanks for any help CM

Hi, I wonder if there's any way to boot from an UDF DVD+RW disc. I'm putting together a big installation DVD and would like to keep it up to date by replacing files with newer versions or directly editing commands or batch files in the DVD. I can't seem to find any information on that not only here, but on the broad internet. Thanks for any help. CM

Maybe I expressed myself not so well... These are not many setups running together but in sequence (I still use the /wait command switch!!!). The reason why I'm doing things like this is because I administer a few PCs from the family so I have folders containing all what is required for installing any single program or driver, and depending on what anyone wants I put inside the $OEM$\$1 folder only what is needed. All these folders have inside an install.cmd file containing the silent installation commands for that particular software or driver. So I don't have to remember everytime what are the switches. The main.cmd file will call sequentially all the install.cmd files inside all the folders and that makes it very simple. But if I don't use the /b switch after start, I'll get a new window opened, that's the only thing I want to avoid, so my start commands look like this: start /b /w Regards, CM

Thanks Aaron, I misunderstood you about the UnattendSwitch thing, sorry. Regarding the main point here, I don't quite get it (I have everything the way it's supposed to be). Maybe the problem has to do with the fact that the NVIDIA drivers are installed with their own install program and the flag only applies to .inf drivers installation, what do you think? If that were the case, I believe a registry tweak made *before* installing the drivers should work. What do you think? Do you know where the registry holds any value regarding this? Best regards. Great work by the way. CM

Hi guys, If you, like me, use a bunch of cmd files instead of a big one, you might find it interesting to add the /b switch to the start command. This makes all the cmd files to be executed in the same window. Otherwise, everytime you start an external cmd file you'll get a new window opened. Just in case: /wait can also be put as /w, which saves some typing... :-) Regards to everyone. CM

Sorry I got it wrong... It's just a sticky thread not a differente forum... (Dumb me!!!) CM

Another "ignored" from me, sorry... This is my display chapter: [Display] BitsPerPel=32 Xresolution=1024 YResolution=768 Vrefresh=85 I'm using these values in my Windows configuration with a GForce4. The installation though, ignores this completely and gives me 640x480x16@60Hz. Is there any other command that may interfere with this? Como Molo

Hi there, For some reason this key under [unattended] DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore is actually ignored. When I try to install the NVIDIA drivers it goes silent all the way (it's an Installshield install) until the Windows dialog box about an unsigned driver being installed shows up Here's my full [unattended] chapter: [unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=Yes UnattendSwitch=Yes DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore Repartition=No TargetPath=* WaitForReboot=No CrashDumpSetting=0 (By the way, Aaron, I don't quite get why you suggest to use "no" for UnattendSwitch. The manual clearly explains you should use Yes and it works for me, while "no" doesn't...) Regards Como Molo

Virus2k: where are you going to put that Official Switches list? Why is no one answering here to you???? :-) I totally support your idea. CM
