Could someone give me the method of installing Quicktime 6.5 from the main_batch bat file? Cheers. Jeremy

Thank you everyone for such a speedy response! I had completely forgotten about Windows catalogue update. Cheers. Jeremy

I need to download KB 828035, 825119, 823182 and 824141 I used to use the link http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=xxxx But this no longer allows one to download the patch! Help. Jeremy

Still not working! ECHO Installing Intel Application Accelerator 2.3 ECHO Please wait... start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\Iaa\setup.exe -s -f1"%systemdrive%\Install\iaa\setup.iss" It seems to install, but when I try to run it from the start menu, it says that the driver has not been detected! Help! Jeremy

A while ago someone posted a script ot install Irfanview and the associated plugins. But it was in German! Has anyone managed to convert this script to English? If so, please post it! Cheers. Jeremy

I have tried to install the Intel application accelerator by placing it in a seperate batch file and calling the batch file from winnt.sif I extracted the files from the iaa23_enu archive and then used setup -s What happens is the installation runs and then hangs. The batch window does NOT close. At the end of the installation, there is an entry in the start menu, but when I try to run the accelerator it tells me I have to reinstall the program. Please advise! Cheers. Jeremy

Just a thought.......... It seems that Microsoft are upadting the actual patches but keeping the same numbers! This may be worth checking............. Cheers. Jeremy

Details of the IAA can be found here: http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df...63&DwnldID=4857 I have an XP setup disk which I use on many computers. This utility is only for Intel 8xx chipsets. I tried extracting the files and putting it in the drivers path but it was not detected. Has anyone else had this problem? Cheers. Jeremy

That was it. Thank you devil270975 and GreenMachine! Cheers. Jeremy

Cheers. Jeremy

Thank you! Jeremy

I have now configured my drivers section. Is there any way I can check the version of the Intel chipset driver and the Via chipset driver once the installation has finished? Cheers. Jeremy

First of all, thank you to everyone who is assisting me. A few more questions........... The Intel chipset files (I extracted them with winrar) do NOT contain any .inf files. Does this mean I have to use the Installshield method? As regards the Via files, there are LOADS of .inf files. Do I need to point to each and every one of them? Cheers. Jeremy

Thank you! The webpage I mentioned does not actually mention that you have to extract the file first. Hopefully this will be updated. Problem now solved! Cheers. Jeremy

I followed the instructions on http://www.MSFN.org/unattended/xp/applicat...stallshield.htm The file I am trying to create a setup.iss for is infinst_enu.exe This is the Intel chipset utility. There do not seem to be any switches available for it. How can I install it silently? Cheers. Jeremy

Problem solved! Once I extracted the files, they actually turned out to me .msp files. So I just slipstreamed them to my Office admin administration using the method described at: http://www.MSFN.org/unattended/xp/officexp...xp_advanced.htm Cheers. Jeremy

I am a computer engineer and I upgrade computers based on Intel and VIA chipsets. I want an option to CHOOSE which drivers I install! If I try to install the VIA drivers on an Intel chipset I get an error and vice-versa. So this is why I would want to use a batch file so that I can choose which chipset drivers to install. I hope I am making myself clear. Cheers. Jeremy

I wish to be able to choose to install various updates. For example. 1) Install Intel chipset drivers. 2) Install Intel application accelerator. 3) Install VIA chipset drivers. 4) Exit. Can anyone provide a simple batch listing for this. Cheers. Jeremy

http://www.microsoft.com/office/ork/xp/default.htm There have been a few new patches released. Can someone explain how to slipstream them so I can burn a new Office CD that automatically installes them? Cheers. Jeremy

http://www.ntutility.com/arm/?from=prog_arm This also seems to compare the registry. Cheers. Jeremy
