    Unattended Vista with Multiple Partitions

    in Unattended Windows Vista/Server 2008

    Posted · Edited by urie

    I cant undestand anyone wanting to install programs on a seperate drive or partition unless they are stand alone a lot of programs add files to winows system, if you were to do another unattended install with a new cd or dvd and didn't add some of the programs you added before some of the previously installed programs will not work, this is ok for My Documents and data you need to keep i do that myselfe

    strowi, you have forgotten to add Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 it should look like code below

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
    "EnableBalloonTips"=dword:00000000
    "FolderContentsInfoTip"=dword:00000000
    "ShowInfoTip"=dword:00000000
    "StartButtonBalloonTip"=dword:00000000
    "NoSMBalloonTip"=dword:00000000
    "ListviewAlphaSelect"=dword:00000001

    Hope this helps

    System recovery partition

    in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003

    Posted

    Please what do u mean by F11 key, (Its either BIOS key to change partition (which i think is not possible) or to display Bootloader menu?)

    But i dont want to mess up the nice Windows XP boot loader, which is present in MBR. (If there is something better than that, i definitly want to try it, tell me the bootloader name for the mentioned purpose).

    What i want is, i want to avoid Loading my CD/DVD everytime i have to re-install Windows XP. For example, either

    1. Windows Boot loader gets corrupt, or

    2. Both Boot loader and Windows XP is corrupted.

    I can boot from anything(windows / Linux) and then jump onto "Recovery Partition", to repair Windows Bootloader. And henceforth re-install windows XP, withought installer files.

    It will be better, if on the hidden partition, i dont create any image, and put raw files/directory (i386) onto it.

    I Know what you want iv'e been using Acronis Trueimage for a few years now and it is easy to use unlike what Oleg_II posted even though he is trying to help I think acronis is your best Bet considering i posted details about free version,

    as reguard to F11 this appears once you have activated the secure zone which stores an image of your System partition it has nothing to do with the bios boot menu it comes up after the bios screen then you would press F11 it will bring up a menu asking do youwhat you want to restore also you can make a bootable recovery cd,

    which you can boot with to give you access to the hidden partition i,e, secure zone then you can restore your system drive from the image file in the secure zone.

    At least download free version while it lasts and give it a shot all other programs will cost you and may not suit you, ive uploaded trueimage7 pdf file so you can have a look and see how it works.

    Need help with creating a rescue/reinstall disc

    in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003

    @blinkdt,

    A Certificate of Authenticity (COA) is a label that helps you identify genuine Microsoft software. A COA is not a software license – it is a visual identifier that assists in determining whether or not the Microsoft software you are running is genuine. However, without it, you will not have a legal license to run Microsoft software. A COA should never be purchased by itself without the software it authenticates.

    Symantec Antivirus 10.0

    in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003

    Posted

    If you wanted to install the update right after you downloaded it, just modify the following section of code:

    ; Get latest intelligent updater.  You can change the second $FileName
    ; to a constant value if you want to be able to use the same file name
    ; in your UA script. I left the file name as it is on the FTP site for
    ; testing purposes.
    gpDownload($FileName, $FileName)

    ; Install the update
    RunWait(@ScriptDir & "\" & $FileName & " /q", @ScriptDir)

    ; Hide status messages
    SplashOff()

    I haven't run this, so hopefully it's not buggy, but you get the general idea. You don't need to launch a command window to run the updater as it's an exe. You also probably don't want to hide the Symantec installer as it will look like the system is hung up while the installer is running.

    HTH :)

    working Great Thanks, :thumbup
