[WPI rb_config.js]

Is there anything I can do to help? Do you need any more information about the setup, or log files, or anything of that sort?

[WPI rb_config.js]

My WPI installation is giving me the notorious rb_config.js error upon exiting. However, the error only appears on machines built with XP Pro Service Pack 3 integrated. The very same WPI installation, when run on machines built with XP Pro Service Pack 2 (and hotfixes) runs just fine. I thought I might be missing some IE6 updates to the Service Pack 3 version, so I ran Windows Update (without installing IE7) to check. I ran WPI again, and it threw the rb_config.js error again.

The errors occur when WPI finishes installing. I read in another thread that the errors show up and prevent the rest of the WPI applications from installing. This is not the case, though I believe that some WPI applications are installing incorrectly. However, no errors are evident until WPI reports being finished installing. I am not installing Office 2007. It is not even in the config file. Office 2003 is present, though.

I also have trouble when configuring WPI - despite having full access to the WPI directory and subdirectories, I get errors about being unable to write to windowoptions.js and useroptions.js.

WPI is launched from [GuiRunOnce] in winnt.sif, as follows:

[GuiRunOnce]
"net use z: \\server\share /USER:server\username password /PERSISTENT:NO"
Z:\Applications\WPI\WPI.hta

config.js

[Changing from windowed to fullscreen]

It worked! Thanks a lot, I had been looking in all the .js files...I never would have found it.

[Changing from windowed to fullscreen]

A few days ago, I found a post documenting how to change WPI from fullscreen mode to windowed mode. I changed it, and want to change it back now. I can't find any documentation now on changing it back. I forget where the original post was. Which file, and what line, do I need to edit to get it back to fullscreen?

[Bart PE and GX240]

I am running into a problem when installing Windows XP with Bart PE. PE boots fine, I can mount my network share and start setup, but when setup goes to format, things go wrong. Both seagate drives I have tried cannot be formattet. I get an error (from diskpart) that says format failed. I also tried a Western Digital drive. It was able to format, and the part of setup that takes place in PE finishes without error. (The very first part, starting at T-53) When it reboots to the HDD to run text mode setup, the hard drive doesn't seem to be bootable. The only thing I can think of is an issue with the IDE controller. The machine is a Dell Optiplex GX240. I have tried changing HDD jumpers and removing the other IDE device (CDROM, on other channel). If anyone has any insight to this, I would greatly appreciate it.

PS - I have a GX150 that works fine with the autoinstall with Bart PE.

[They make fun of this on the Awful Forums]

I joined yesterday to find a solution to an unattended windows install. Been lurking all summer, these forums are great.

I primarily use Linux. I dumped Windows about a year and a half ago and haven't looked back, but my job this summer is a windows environment. I have been setting up a windows distribution point to replace Ghost.

edit: I did find the solution I came here for yesterday.
