haha. That was great. @GM Good laugh!

why don't you just call them seperately? it would have the same effect. by the way, you can't call a registry file from with a registry file like a batch file can. They weren't designed that way. They were just made to to import registry settings, not to execute things. the registry file with the RunOnce keys doesn't execute the program, RunDll32 does when it see the RunOnce keys in the registry.

problem already solved. Atleast when using OEMSETUP.EXE The thing is really stupid. You can do it two ways.... you could add /L:X at the end of your MSCDEX.EXE (first CDROM letter being X) so that your CDROM letter never changes, or format before. some people just don't read. Thanks anyway. I also posted another way to do it, and there was discussion in the thread. and actually PATH isn't the problem. though I should point out %CDROM% is never declared....MSCDEX.EXE doesn't assign it, atleast it shouldn't.... So in the end, the problem is in fact OEMSETUP.EXE. The whole page is about to be rewritten soon anyways.....

yes, but who really wants to go indepth on creating BartPE plugins? The imgs are easier....

go down the page to the section that has : It lists different versions of DrectX with different updates. It's not an this update updates all DirectX versions.....

lol. you can do it anyway you want, but eventually you ISO could get corrupted.

there were a couple between you and daniel i think....either that or someone else. I deleted them a couple days ago....so...yeah......

not that I kno of (size limit wise....)

taskkill is more powerful, and one less thing to copy over as it's included with XP (perhaps not Home edition though). If i had multiple instanced of IE running, I could use taskkill to kill only one of the windows, without closing them all. pskill will close all of them. my only guess as to why taskkill isn't working, is because you're trying to kill the wrong thing. Did you get those process names by looking at the Process Manager (Task Manager) and finding out which one you closed that actually closed the window, in an actuall attend environment?

are you sure the Administrator account is actually deleted? Are you getting the welcome screen for hte login? or Classic Logon? if Welcome, press <CRTL><ALT><DEL> one or twice and the classic box should come up, and type Administrator. there is a Linux tool somewhere to blank an XP password, you could give that a try. There is no registry setting for password. It's encoded in the SAM file, and you don't want to mess with that if you don't know what you're doing.

i should point out, this is about the 8th one here. Hence why the large thread was greated, where everyone just posts, AND it's request only (MCT....I'm looking at you....notice a couple of yours missing from that thread?) It's always a good idea to start, but soon it gets bloated and people start making requests. And as for the search, you people need a guide to do about anything don't you? Some people say they search for days tryign to find something, I try ONE search and I'll have what they're looking for. You just need to know how to work it, and always keep in mind, not everything was posted within 30 days.....

Added a couple things to the guide, nothing major. Incorporated a few of ArmyDoc's ideas as well (not credited yet though, I'm getting there) Speak now if you want anything added.... I believe BartPE and a complete rewrite of the Windows 98/ME section is the next thing to be added

I was up for a challenge, and I was hoping for more.... taskkill /F /im IEXPLORE.EXE /FI "WINDOWTITLE eq Welcome*" That will kill ANY IE windows that start with the world Welcome, but leave the others untouched. Like the one Dreamweaver open.....

don't use an menu that isbased in IE? best that I know of. Try XPDeploy? Might be good.....

I don't know what either of you are talking about. If we were to go strictly by the rules..... both of you are not following them. One or the others guys... not both

make sure you have hidden files and whatnot turned off when you copy the SETUP files from your original Office source. Have you used any shrinking programs?

just be careful getting the brand new stuff, or the popular stuff. Especially in the US. I got a letter from my ISP that i violated teh DMCA because I started downloading the Friends Series Finale because I missed. I mean seriously, if it was on TV..... I'd use Shareaza, but you may want to get a good IP blocker to keep out those naughty people that want money from you...

i wonder why cmdlines.txt doesn't work for you.... RunOnceEX is harder, more possible errors in Synx if not done correctly (I'm a big fan of using an INF instead of Batch file....)

well, I must say, you put alot of thought into this. Me personally, I already knew (I messed with that startup folder along time ago, but i coudn't get certain things to load, but yeah....) but I'm others didn't. Thanks for sharing! You could do pretty much the same thing with RunOnceEX as well. As the last thing just before the shutdown command, import another set of entries, that overwrited all except for the shutdown one, and when it restarts, the next batch should go.

http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/installhotfixes.htm or you could use XPCREATE. It works with 2k as well, if that's your problem, or even 2k3...

I've never edited the ISO directly. Always recreated. Tell it to start, go get a coke, and it's done when I get back..... Just for the love of Peet, don't use WinISO EVER! Or use UltraISO's optimize option as it does it by filenames or some wierd method. I compared the UltraISO and CDIMAGE ISOs, and UltraISO's was smaller, but more files where wrong in the ISO.

welll,perhaps if you actually search..... unattended.msfn.org greenmachine.msfnhosting.com/xpcreate I oughta slap you just asking this question. This one is REAL obvious you haven't searched at all.

why? you have all the varialbes. Open a command prompt, in your current Windows installation, type SET. It will display all variables.

And I've already sent a reply

yeah, you can't use both -n and -j1 -n allows for long filenames, while still using ISO-9660 -j1 Does -n, but also encodes a Joliet filesystem as well, allowing for like - in path names and what nto. A PM is fine.....what is different from your guide and flyakites that you mgith think needs to be added? Besides BartPE?
