Sorry to say but I like Luna Royale by Pgase much more than The danged MS "Zune" Theme. Maybe you can find pgase and ask him to set the default to black just for Darkside? Or if you set it with a theme file I can show you how to change the default that is set in the theme. (You probably know that though)

Did you modify any files? Can you post your config? P.S. %Systemroot% is always goanna be C; or what ever your drive is.

Look on your xp disk there should be a last_session.ini file on it post that as an attachment. (Moving the thread to the proper forum)

Yes it is being futher developed we have several ideas floating around.

I386 folder why in the hell would you copy that??

Its not like a switch or something you can turn on and off. You need the 64 installation DVD and a 64 serial key.

jspayne cpl file maker http://www.jspayne.com/cplmaker/ I DO have the registered version so no worry about the rarely seen popup.

Right now there is now way to run wpi before first logon unless you run it at the t-13\t-12 minute mark. I am looking into other options to make WPI run at other times also but that won't be for awhile (Unless I get a fit of genius)

I got used to and taught myself how to track and build custom installers by hand. Using innosetup, winrar or simple inf files to run them. I do have a friend that uses installwatch all of the time and swears by it though so I do know it is pretty good. sCiTe for auto-it is the program that tracks your mose movments and keypresses to make a install script it is fairly easy to use but just as frustrating to use becase you get one little thing wrong and blamo it don't work right. Personally I am just more of a do it yourself type you learn more that way.....

Known issue it is caused by office or one of the hotfixes installed with it we have yet to find a solution or fix for it.

I could not get past that error no matter what I tried so I went a completly different path: I made a cpl and cpi file for it and it works fine that way! Just add these file to the system32 dir...

Yeah installwrite and installwatch is what you are thinking of. I have barely used them though. There are few apps that cannot be installed without extra measures. Please don't give up as it gets a lot easier. Plus USSF is not perfect it can only tell you the basic switches for the most common apps and installer types. Their is however a whole section in this forum based on application installs remember tosearch there as you can find uncommon switches and pre-made auto-it files in there.

I have an idea as I do this all of the time with inf files give me a minute to translate to an reg file and add the needed info for lightscribe please.

Add teh following commands to your WPI config: Command2 = regsvr32 /u /s "%programfiles%\\ICQTOO~1\\toolbaru.dll" Regafter = %wpipath%\homepage.reg Reg File (homepage.reg) Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main] "Start Page"="http://www.msfn.org/" Still working on changing the search defaults back I will return...

OK that is a difficult one but bascally you have to find the silent switch for not installing the toolber or run the uninstaller for just the toolbar and run that after installg icq. I will mess around some and see if I can help.

Can you paste a sample script? I have an idea what it might be so paste one or two of the scripts as an attachment to your next post. Please.

OK you are doin good on the trouble-shooting and great informative post! I personally don't use the driver packs but I have a coupla friends that do so I will see what they have to say as soon as I can talk to them. Here is the full entries that runwpi.exe makes: for /f "delims=: tokens=1" %%i in ("%~dp0") do set drive=%%i: set wpipath=%drive%\wpi SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx REG ADD %KEY%\WPI /V 1 /D "%wpipath%\WPI.hta" /f MKDIR %systemroot%\Resources\Themes\Royale\Shell\NormalColor xcopy /y "%myfiles%\Royale.msstyles" "%systemroot%\Resources\Themes\Royale" xcopy /y "%myfiles%\ShellStyle.dll" "%systemroot%\Resources\Themes\Royale\Shell\NormalColor" regedit /s "%myfiles%\theme.reg" SO let me do some research and I will get back to you...

It comes with a manual, there is a fairly comprhensive help section at the website and the main release post has a example with it. WHat more do you want?

If you read the manual and the changelog you will see that the condition can be set to look for already installed files and it will disable the checkbox if a file exists i.e. "Is already installed" like so in grayed condition section = FileExists('%programfiles%\VMware\VMware Workstation\vmware.exe') As for games what are you talking about? Litlle ones like reflexive arcade games and popcap or gamehouse game? Yes it installs thoughs fine with switches. But for bigger games you nedd to find or create complex auto-it scripts (Auto-it is not too hard to learn) to have those install silently and WPI can then run the au3 script to install the game.

The nero 8 thread is locked because the yahoo that keeps posting it is posting registered WAREZ copies.

Not a chance in heck.... Free internet cable would be sweet though.......

I would suggest using a installer manager like xpcreate or WPI in conjunction with cdswitch (All can be found on this forum). SO you would have one cd for windows and a couple of extras then during the T-13 phase or after first logon it would start installing all of your apps and at the times you denote it would ask for the next cd and then the next one and so-on.
