Alanoll replied to o_m_ar's topic in Windows Post-Install Wizard (WPI)

RunOnceEx Screen software install screen to large
Alanoll replied to painkilla's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
I'm not entirely sure of your problem...however... REG ADD %KEY%\115 /VE /D "Quickpar" /f REG ADD %KEY%\115 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\quickpar\QuickPar-0.9.1.0.exe /S /D="C:\Program Files\Quickpar\"" /f should be REG ADD %KEY%\115 /VE /D "Quickpar" /f REG ADD %KEY%\115 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\quickpar\QuickPar-0.9.1.0.exe /S /D=\"C:\Program Files\Quickpar\"" /f REG ADD %KEY%\155 /VE /D "Winamp 5.08" /f REG ADD %KEY%\155 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\winamp\Winamp5.0.8.msi /qn INI="%systemdrive%\install\winamp\winamp508.ini"" /f REG ADD %KEY%\155 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\winamp\Winamp.exe" /f Should be REG ADD %KEY%\155 /VE /D "Winamp 5.08" /f REG ADD %KEY%\155 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\winamp\Winamp5.0.8.msi /qn INI="\%systemdrive%\install\winamp\winamp508.ini\"" /f REG ADD %KEY%\155 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\winamp\Winamp.exe" /f Then at the VERY end of the CMD file, just BEFORE the EXIT add rundll32.exe iernonce.dll,RunOnceExProcess And that should jumpstart your last few entries. I just skimmed the file, but those were the only errors I saw. @MaDxCrEaM I'm guessing that last little bit I just posted (in this post) about adding another rundll32 command is what you need as well. -
RunOnceEx Screen software install screen to large
Alanoll replied to painkilla's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
did you cause the restart manually? If so, attach your code as well, and I'll have a look. If it restarted automatically, then either A: One of your programs you're installing has a restart routine that isn't cancelled. B: You might have a restart command at the end. If you have a restart command at the end,you could just be forgetting to add another instance of the rundll32 command from above. -
wait for people to reply. You failed ot wait even 24 hours. ..\ does NOT work simply because GUIRunOnce is not executed in the $OEM$ directory. The current directory is on the HDD i believe. So it DOES NOT WORK. It works in CMDLINES.TXT simply because CMDLINES.TXT has a current directory of $OEM$. I've warned you before about waiting for people to reply...

why don't you simply set your styles and what not, and let windows create the THEME file for you? There is a "Save As" option on the Themes tab. Oh, and don't double post.

How to Make Unattended CD for Newbies
Alanoll replied to Astalavista's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
but still, I'd just assume not having noobs use the DriverPacks. also, the order matter nots, as long as the general order themselves is maintained. -

How to Make Unattended CD for Newbies

how to customise some minor things in u xp, help
Alanoll replied to amardeepsingh's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
Best tip you'll ever get. And untill such time as you do comply with that tip...topic closed (and don't say you've searched, it's obvious you haven't) -
Why should I makecab winntbbu.dll?
Alanoll replied to P1R4T3's topic in Setup Billboard Screens for Windows
delete your winntbbu.dll u dont need it u only need a winntbbu.dl_ y bec. it is compressed a fraction of the size of the uncompressed version complete ignorance Though it may be proven that it works, it just isn't true. Setup determines that file is compressed with a marker of _x in the txtsetup.sif line. It doesn't even look for an uncompressed version untill it can't find it. The problem with being an improper image, is not using modifype to correct the headers and checksum. -
I'll look into it when updating the MSI.

RunOnceEx Screen software install screen to large
Alanoll replied to painkilla's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
OK so this will run those blocks of 15 progs or so without a reboot & keep the consecutive numbering system for each app in every block? indeed. YOu don't need to even reset the counter back to 001. Just leave it how it is, and copy and paste that line of code, every 015 entries or so, and it will execute the current set of imported keys, then import the next set. And so on. The only reboot will be the ones caused by you or the individual setups (if you failed to kill em) The only lines you'll have to copy would be the TITLE for the RUnOnceEX window to each segment (renaming if you wish). @Astalavista This is indeed how it does it And I know this isn't the first time I've mentioned that command -

Alanoll replied to painkilla's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
rundll32.exe iernonce.dll,RunOnceExProcess Instead of executing the CMD file from CMDLINES.TXT, put it back in GUIRunOnce in the WINNT.SIF file. Then every 15 entries or so, put the line above in the batch file. Copy paste the TITLE part and such and repeat. I gotta go do some HW right now, so I'll be back. -
wha? Cockos plugin? The CVS folder was included in the last EXE i obtained from Winamp when I updated the MSI last, and I recreate the installer, no customizing of files (which is why when someone requested I change the CDRIPPER i think, I didn't). I'm just replacing the SETUP routine, nothing more. As for the removing of the CAB files, to be quite on honest, I wasn't sure how that would work I knew that if you didn't select them to be installed it'd be fine, but I would have though the installer would have prompted you for missing CABs if it needed em.

Tweaks I want to make (but can't seem to find how)
Alanoll replied to JasonGW's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
Only for those that don't know how to search, and be specific while at the same time general. Using the " + - and such also improve results. -
whoops. knew there was a reason I said "or so" You're correct. I should have incremented the /V value instead of the KEY value.

You mean the CMD file or the calling CMD.EXE? If i ws to add it to the guide, I'd recommend the CMD file simply because it'd be easier. also, to avoid having to run the same IF EXIST thigns again (I like efficiency and yeah...) REG ADD %KEY%\001 /VE /D "BitCommet Favorites" /f REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Apps\Bit_Comet\bitcomet.exe /S" /f REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 2 /D "%CDROM%\CMDS\Install_BitComet_Favorites.cmd" /f could be changed to REG ADD %KEY%\001 /VE /D "BitCommet Favorites" /f REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Apps\Bit_Comet\bitcomet.exe /S" /f REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 2 /D "%CDROM%\CMDS\Install_BitComet_Favorites.cmd %CDROM%" /f then in your CMD file Instead of: TITLE BitComet Favorites Installation...... @Echo Off IF EXIST D:\CD.txt set CDROM=D: IF EXIST E:\CD.txt set CDROM=E: IF EXIST F:\CD.txt set CDROM=F: IF EXIST G:\CD.txt set CDROM=G: IF EXIST H:\CD.txt set CDROM=H: IF EXIST I:\CD.txt set CDROM=I: IF EXIST J:\CD.txt set CDROM=J: CLS COLOR 0A ECHO. ECHO. ECHO Installing BitComet Favorites... ECHO Please Wait... RD /S /Q "%Systemdrive%\Program Files\BitComet\fav" XCOPY /S "%CDROM%\Apps\Bit_Comet\fav" "%Systemdrive%\Program Files\BitComet\fav\" ECHO Done! EXIT Have TITLE BitComet Favorites Installation...... @Echo Off CLS COLOR 0A ECHO. ECHO. ECHO Installing BitComet Favorites... ECHO Please Wait... RD /S /Q "%Systemdrive%\Program Files\BitComet\fav" XCOPY /S "%1%\Apps\Bit_Comet\fav" "%Systemdrive%\Program Files\BitComet\fav\" ECHO Done! EXIT Remember, this is simply for effeciencies sake It decreases the time by a slight ammount, but negligible.

comprehensive pre-configuration of IE6 in XP's uA
Alanoll replied to prathapml's topic in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003
It does for about 250+ people now. the keys won't get imported .REG files are unable to create a new tree in the registry. -
i'd stick with the CMD files.. REG ADD %KEY%\001 /VE /D "BitCommet" /f REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Apps\Bit_Comet\bitcomet.exe /S" /f RD /S /Q "%Systemdrive%\Program Files\BitComet\fav" XCOPY /S "%CDROM%\Apps\Bit_Comet\fav" "%Systemdrive%\Program Files\BitComet\fav\" That is wrong. Without the CMD file it'd be REG ADD %KEY%\001 /VE /D "BitCommet" /f REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Apps\Bit_Comet\bitcomet.exe /S" /f REG ADD %KEY%\002 /V 1 /D "CMD.EXE /C %RD /S /Q \"%Systemdrive%\Program Files\BitComet\fav\"" /f REG ADD %KEY%\003 /V 1 /D "CMD.EXE /C %XCOPY /S \"%CDROM%\Apps\Bit_Comet\fav\" "\%Systemdrive%\Program Files\BitComet\fav\"" /f Or so.

I don't understand. Do you have more CMD files? I don't see any. How are you calling them? When do you want them to be executed?

not if you'reusing Windows XP Except for maybe the bullet bitmaps. And the progress animation is in the bottom right,not left.
