Only one example start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\K-Lite Mega Codec\klmcodec101.exe /Silent will not work,'cause of the blank. Correct is: start /wait "%systemdrive%\install\Applications\K-Lite Mega Codec\klmcodec101.exe /Silent" Try the code line by line in a console window and you will get the errors.

Hi, check your code for missing " or change your filenames to 8.3.

Hi, [GuiRunOnce] and runonceex are executed at the same time. Do you install a driver or a reg tweak under the [GuiRunOnce] section?

Hi, use the winnt.sif-section: [RegionalSettings] LanguageGroup=1 SystemLocale=00000xxx UserLocale=00000xxx InputLocale=0xxx:00000xxx Where xxx is your countrycode.

Just call it, or use "CScript myscript.vbs //B //NoLogo" You get more options at the console window with "cscript /?".

Convert your batch to Visual Basic or Visual Basic Script.

Nero has it's own ASPI driver. Install just ASPI 4.6 (imho 4.7 is a little bit buggy) Use "aspinit.exe silent" for an unattended installation.

I've the same problem with your file !? Check your PM !

Good job for j2re-1_4_2_01 !!! switches don't work for j2re-1_4_1_05 j2re-1_4_2_01 is too buggy for the best browser of the world. You know, the man with snow on his heads

With console version: No, but if you use MS-KB Searchand copy/paste the MS0x-xxx you get detailed info's about the patch.

I know, but if you try to install again, you get less windows to confirm. Normally you get an uninstall option.I have no suggestions to this behaviour, typically MS..

There is already a setup.iss in the package, but it is the same who is created by 'setup -r' and it don't work.. For information: There are some security-leaks in previous versions of Sun-Java, not as many as in MSJava, but if you use an alternative browser, you should use this version.

@DaveXP You haven't installed MDAC 2.8 ? Fixes a lot of problems. a bit OT... I used this method: -extract the files to a dir -pack to exe with winrar with this options: -Setup=dasetup.exe /q /n -TempMode -Silent=2 -Overwrite=1

Well, the command prompt version is OK. I prefer the good ol' command window. I'm a DOS-freak and like switches and s/w windows Sorry, for posting the link to the overdosed, heavyweight GUI-Version.. :/ shame on me..

Just modify the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\RpcSs\FailureActions: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 03 00 00 00 53 00 65 00 00 00 00 00 60 EA 00 00 02 00 00 00 60 EA 00 00 02 00 00 00 60 EA 00 00 This line changes the behavior of RPCSS-service to do nothing after a crash (instead of a reboot)

I have dl SUN-Java 1_4_1_05. The unattended installation don't run with setup.iss.

Any suggestions ?

I prefer to use HfNetCheck ~15 MB, 'cause you don't need windows-update and get detailed information of needed and installed patches with KB- and Q-numbers on all comp's in your network (if you want). Type hfnetchk /? to get more help (console window). database is dated 16/10. Is this newer than MS' ? EDIT:NO,NO use this hfnetchk for console , i don't realize the size of the link above, i'm really ...

You have to edit your boot.ini with 'bootcfg'. type bootcfg /? at the prompt for help EDIT I'm 2fast4you DaveXP

EDIT: Wooh, too fast4me @GreenMachine You can read the whole story at eweek AFAIC, you can use Version5. MS says: For now... But tomorrow ??? My choice is Version6 with MessengerPlus.

try instead of DEL "%systemroot%\Web\Wallpaper\Choeur d'étoiles.jpg" simple method for other files: -open a command window (cmd.exe) -go to the directory -type 'dir /x' -remember the 8.3 name and use it in you batch
