  1. Well finally had time today to try this method out and no go...

    /Add-Package /PackagePath:<path_to_package>

    Installs a specified .cab package in the image. Multiple packages can be

    added on one command line.

    /PackagePath can point to either a .cab file or a folder.

    Examples:

    DISM.exe /Image:C:\test\offline /Add-Package

    /PackagePath:C:\test\packages

    DISM.exe /Image:C:\test\offline /Add-Package

    /PackagePath:C:\test\packages\package.cab

    Tried pointing it to the folder with the msu files and failed, so I tried pointing it to the extracted cab files failed as well.

  2. Hey,

    Just was wondering if the way I slipstream updates into wim files is the best method.

    I download all the msu updates and then extract the updates one by one using the following command in a batch file:

    expand "blah1.msu" -F:* c:\extract

    expand "blah2.msu" -F:* c:\extract

    expand "blah3.msu" -F:* c:\extract

    I then go into the c:\extract folder and delete everything except for the cab files that were extracted.

    I run WSIM and mount the wim file and create a xml answer file with all the cab files included.

    After that I run the following batch file to integrate the updates into the wim:

    dism /mount-wim /wimfile:c:\extract\install.wim /index:1 /mountdir:c:\mount /quiet

    echo %errorlevel%

    start /wait "" pkgmgr /n:"c:\extract\updates-x86.xml" /o:c:\mount;c:\mount\windows /s:c:\sandbox

    echo %errorlevel%

    dism /unmount-wim /mountdir:c:\mount /commit /quiet

    echo %errorlevel%

    Is there a better process in doing this? Is there a better way or more efficient way?

  3. Integrating IE8 with the Ultimate Extras causes this problem. Actually, not only integrating but updating windows with the IE8 and Ultimate Extras on the same windows session cause the same errors.

    For the solution, do not include Ultimate Extras to the integration. And if you are updating Vista, restart the computer after ie8 installation immediately before installing ultimate extras.

    Well that sucks. *curses Microsoft*

    Thanks for the info though.

  4. I had this issue but it was for some other updates. Are you doing other updates with ie8? I got my updates from the Ryanvm.net and some of them were corrupted so I ened up just redownloading everything manually myself using the kb numbers listed and thats how I got it to work.

    Only other thing I was slipstreaming was some Ultimate extras. They worked fine. I've tried both the pkgmr method and peimg without any luck. I have been able to integrate all other security updates in my wim file using peimg.

  5. Has anyone figured out what updates it's trying to install when doing the .Net Framework Family Update? I went under the SoftwareDistrubution\Download folder like usual, but this update seems different.

    I found the 4 of the following updates and tried installing them manually on a new install:

    KB948609

    KB948610

    KB958481

    KB958483

    It still wants me to download the update though.

    Anyone slipstream this yet?

    Update:

    I actually found this other file that it wants installed, NDP35SP1-KB958484-x86.exe, but it extracts to a msp not a cab or msu file.

  6. Hi,

    I am trying to make it so that only the English (Canada) - US keyboard layout is used and shown.

    So I added the following line:

    InputLocale=1009:00000409

    Only thing is that it installed the English (Canada) - English, French, Multilingual and English (US) - US

    These are my other regional settings:

    [RegionalSettings]

    InputLocale=1009:00000409

    LanguageGroup=1

    Language=00001009

    Has anyone succusfully made it so that only English (Canada) - US is installed? Or another language?

  7. I have actually tried that, it screws with the graphics and the mouse is still a problem.

    What happens when you run it in Win9x compatibility mode, or full screen?

    Running it through an emulator can make the program rather clunky, as i find with win9x under winnt.

    You could, i suppose, dual boot. i have an msdos partition on my pc, even with 120 gb hda.

    I have thought about doing that but rather not if there was any other way. Also I know in windows you can change drive letters, is that possible with the system drive? Because I wouldn't really want to keep C drive in windows as the dos partition.

  8. I've been trying to fix this problem for years and hoping to find someone somwhere to find a solution to this.

    On my parents computer they still run windows 98 but the time has come where they need to upgrade to 2000 or XP but this one program they run will not work in either OS. It is an old dos based solitaire program which seems to run fine in 2000/XP but the mouse cursor is invisible. I have tried every way possible to get it to work using pifs. I am at a loss at what to do to get it to work and no one I can find seems to know either or care.

    The program is located at http://www.oilernut.com/solitaire.zip

    I hope that someone out there can help me or if they have a better idea on what to do. To bypass the pasword box just hit enter three times.
