Depending on what scripting langauge you can get the current directory path, which you could use to get path. Example VBS Script Example CMD Promt

You could use this VBS script to change the wallpaper. I have only tested this on Vista Sp2 and it works. You will have to fill out the path to your WallPaper. Save As ChangeWallPaper.vbs

If your object is being run like the example below Then change it to this to keep the program open

This worked using the Button Object.

So what you are saying then is that you are against Microsoft from having any recource to check to see if you are using there legitimate software. Your arguments make no sence all you want to see is nothing more then debugging information, to slow down the install. Example If you alllow 30 seconds per dialog you have added Two minutes more to your install. It would of cost Microsoft nothing to unhide these boxes since it there source code no more then One line of code. They choose to make them hidden to make the install go faster. If you think it would be a easy task just to whip some thing for something of no importance then grab some C++ tutorials and see how much work would be involved to do this.
