The link is working now. Just tried it

I had read a post somewhere that even files from the i386 folder can be deleted. (language files apart from english). Just cant remeber now where I read it.

Can someone please post which files are not required from windows xp cdrom i386 folder so that they may be deleted to create more space for other applications? Also can someone write a batch file to automate the process? I am talking about the language files, cursors, extra unneeded fonts etc. thanks in advance.

Aaron, Could you please put up step by step instructions on the unattended cd website how to incorporate the getcd program into the batch file. The batch should ask for the second cdrom and then continue to install the other programs directly from that cdrom without copoying them to the hard disk first. I am sure that a lot of people want to add a lot of programs to their cd but cannot because of lack of space on the cd. This solution would solve all their problems. I would then request you to add the instructions to the main website as well so that all may benefit. Thanks.

I have found the perfect tools for the job. Look at h**p://willowhayes.co.uk/ The program getcd.exe finds the drive letter of the first cdrom drive on the machine and can be used as a part of a batch file. Thanks Oli for the great program!!!!

I would greatly appreciate it if you could give it to me. Thanks

can someone guide me as to how to have my .bat file autodetect my cdrom drive letter. I am trying to put my additional programs which dont fit on my xp install cd onto another cdrom and want to install those programs from that cd automatically and unattended. I want my batch file from the first cd to automatically ask for another cdrom, find the programs on that cd and install them. Thank you for your help.

Can someone please post step by step instructions on how to make a unattended installation of windows xp where after all programs on one cd have been installed, the program halts and aks for another cd. I know this will not be completely unattended but at least it will save the trouble of installing the remaining programs manually. I want to create an installation something like the mandrake and redhat linux installers which span over multiple cds. Thanks in advance for your help.

Can someone give step by step instructions to unattended install of nvidia graphics drivers 44.03 and pinnacle tvtuner drivers. I have seen an earlier post to install nvidia drivers from batch file (below) but I would like to install both these from winnt.sif. ---------------------------------------------------------------- ECHO Installing nVidia Gforce 4 MX-440se Drivers start /wait %systemdrive%\install\drivers\nvidia\setup.exe -s -f1"%systemdrive%\install\drivers\nvidia\setup.iss" ECHO. ------------------------------------------------------------------ This script causes the system to reboot. Any switches to disable booting?
