How to apply regtweaks for ALL users ? · April 18, 2008

But if I use setupcomplete.cmd, will that not affect the users ?

How to apply regtweaks for ALL users ? · April 17, 2008

I run the regtweaks during unattend installation, but I seem to get only 1 of the regtweaks to be activated over all users.. (disable UAC )

I have via autounattend.xml created 4 users and I think I am "administrator" during setup.

But after restart and login by administrator the regtweaks are not set "?

The settings in HKEY_CURRENT_USER, are there different settings in registry as of which user are logged in ?

Is the UAC active during the unattended installation ? is it UAC who does not permit my regtweaks ?

What am I doing wrong ?

One tiny question more ....

I install my winzip unattended during my vista install, but the registry setting does not seem to be set in all users !?

I am not sure which user is active during installation of vista ? is it not the administrator ?

Is there a way to have the registry settings to be over all users ?

Are those 3 files needed for integration when doing a brand new unattended dvd with SP1 ?

April 16, 2008

radix, you are the man

April 15, 2008

April 15, 2008

Thanks !

Will try this out !

I dont mean to get a key, I have that already, I need help with the reg file...

I managed to do the silent install of winzip 11.2.8094 (same procedure as before), but has anyone managed to do a .reg file to put in your license key via silent install ?

It worked fine with 11.1.7466 but not with the newest version

Tried this yesterday without success

copied my files from my working ISO to the usb stick

Got it to boot once, but after the first pictures vista tells me some driver is missing

Tried different settings in bios and after a while I cant get it to boot from the usb at all, invalid partition, insert bootable media and so on..

Made all steps again several times...no success

Is there a problem that I have a 8gb stick ?

Any suggestions ?? I really want this to work...

October 23, 2007

Razormoon: I think I dont come by the first PE pass when I add the drivers the install.exe doesnt seem to be started !?

When I boot the ISO, in the first PE pass I get a cmd window which say driversroot = d:

Shortly after I get a error window:

It is not possible to install one or more drivers which is necessary for systemstart, check that the drivers are correct and restart installation, Press OK...

Pressed Shift-F10 and looked in the log files, but I did not see any particularly

Dobby, I will post this tonight when I am home from work..

Ps. I have made a copy of the ISO BEFORE I altered the settings as of the Firegeier guide to install drivers from media or usb stick and that ISO is working so there is something wrong with this step.. Ds.

October 21, 2007

Maybe I missunderstand what this pass is for !?

I thought I would add up all known drivers for my system so I dont need to install them after vista is installed..

I thought that this pass would make all drivers present for vista...

Intel INF is intel chipset drivers..

October 21, 2007

Anyone ??? Dobby ?

Have we lost Martin ? have not seen posts from him for a long while

October 17, 2007

The vista installation iso is/was working before this...

I have just altered the needed steps for "install drivers from media or dvd" and then this problem occoured

I have tried to burn DVD and ISO on VM same result

I tried to rename folders without 000_xxx and removed all but the .inf files, same error

I have added AHCI, Intel inf, Yukon LAN, intel LAN drivers...

setupact.log shows all files, tells that some is not .inf and pass on..in the end there is 0x0640ae IBSLIB publishmessage:It is not possible to install one or more drivers which is necessary for systemstart, check that the drivers are correct and restart installation

no UnattendGC folder !?

EDIT:

Another question, in the guide : imagex /mountrw D:\VistaWork\DVD\sources\boot.wim 2 D:\VistaWork\Mount

to mount boot.wim, but should it not be a "1" for the PE and not a "2" as in the guide ???

October 17, 2007

cant get the "install drivers from media or DVD" to work...

Have set the Microsoft-Windows-PnPCustomizationsWinPE \ DriverPaths \ PathAndCredentials path to %DriversRoot%\Drivers

And in Setdriversroot.cmd

....SET DriversRoot=%%i:

When I boot the ISO I get a cmd window which say driversroot = d:

Shortly after I get a error window:

It is not possible to install one or more drivers which is necessary for systemstart, check that the drivers are correct and restart installation, OK...

I have copied files into the drivers folder, have made subfolders called 000_xxxx and in the folders I have unpacked the drivers (.inf and other filetypes)

Should it ONLY be .inf files in the folders ???

October 16, 2007

Yes, SATA drivers are included but not the AHCI drivers, you have to choose this setting in bios

in AHCI mode the SATA disc has better performance....i think

October 16, 2007

Yes it's correct. It's checking each drive for a file called DriversRoot.txt which you should have created on the drive that you have your drivers on. When it finds this file it sets an environment variable called DriversRoot to it. This is what is then used in Autounattend.xml to tell WinPE where to find the drivers for your hardware %DriversRoot%\drivers is the drive and folder that you should have your drivers in.
X:\setup.exe tells WinPE to run windows setup. This is needed because you are overriding what WinPE does when it boots. I think X:\ is a ram drive that WinPE creates and copies a bunch of startup files to (but don't quote me on that. I never checked). Either that or it's just a drive mapped from the DVD probably to give a constant drive letter that setup knows about. (As your DVD drive could be D:, E:, or F: depending on how many hard drives you have).

Thanks Dobby

Is this method the best way to add AHCI drivers for my SATA disc during installation ??

October 16, 2007

Dobby, I have not tried it yet..

But I will tonight

So what you are saying is that it should look like this in order to work:

@ECHO OFF
SET DriversRoot=NULL

:SearchDriversRoot
FOR %%i IN (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%i:\DriversRoot.txt SET DriversRoot=%%i:
IF NOT "%DriversRoot%"=="NULL" GOTO StartSetup
GOTO SearchDriversRoot

:StartSetup
ECHO DriversRoot=%DriversRoot%
X:\setup.exe

Why is it X:\setup.exe ?

October 15, 2007

was it something wrong with these lines from Firegeirers guide to install drivers from media ?? (":\" should NOT be there ?)

@ECHO OFF
SET DriversRoot=NULL

:SearchDriversRoot
FOR %%i IN (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%i:\DriversRoot.txt SET DriversRoot=%%i:\
IF NOT "%DriversRoot%"=="NULL" GOTO StartSetup
GOTO SearchDriversRoot

:StartSetup
ECHO DriversRoot=%DriversRoot%
X:\setup.exe

Has anyone manage to get this to work ???

October 12, 2007

Does anyone have the reg settings for this in vista :

1. In explorer I always want the detailed view of files and folders, (the manual way in xp I just choosed detailed view in explorer and applied it to all folders)

2. On the desktop I want Autoarrange by alphabetical as default

October 12, 2007

I think I found a error in the guide, Advanced, Copy profile

In step 1 it is instructed to write:

%WINDIR%\system32\sysprep\sysprep.exe /generalize /quiet /oobe /reboot

But in the picture below there is no generalize !?

Should I use generalize for this task ??

If I follow the guide to install applications, there is no "generalize" in the line in Synchronous Command ,Pass 4 specialize, why ?

October 11, 2007

Is there actualy someone who has managed to do this ?

Had ultimate OEM installed, extracted key and xx.xrm-ms file.

Put it in my folder structure of my DVD in sources\$OEM$\$$\SYSTEM32\OEM and then made a ISO and tried in a VM..

This did NOT work !?

Should I have run the mountrw command and put the file somewhere in the mounted folder ? and then unmount it to be included in install.wim ??

October 11, 2007

What folder do I install programs silently to, I have a swedish vista.

What folder should I "use" in my copy scripts when copying info during unattended install ? (when I used xp I copied to folder "Program")

October 11, 2007

Sorry, double post...
