DMX

it's ok now i use the /qb switch combined with start /wait /min and it works great

i get the incorrect line parameters error , any other ideas

thanks for the help i'm going to test it now with the new switches

i get an installshield error during guirunonce installation of diskeeper 8 professional on virtual pc "Failed to extract file 'DLL_ini' from binary table." has anyone epirienced this error before or knows what causes it? ECHO Installing Diskeeper 8.0.459 Professional... start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\Diskeeper8\DK8PE.msi /QN

so does it mean that by following this method the windows installation will be compatible with different systems or only my system? does anybody tried to use the installation that this method produces on other systems?

i want to try this method but i must know the answer to this question

is it possible to install the paginf file on a partition other than the system partition? (unattendedly ofcourse)

can you solve the problem i posted earlier it will help me alot user input

Is there a way to remove or disable the close button in a cmd or batch window?

exporting large binary values with vbs scripts is rather difficult so the simple solution i have is to silently export this reg file with a script like so ----------------the reg file------------------------ Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\MS Exchange-Einstellungen] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\MS Exchange-Einstellungen\0a0d020000000000c000000000000046] "1102032f"=hex:01,00,00,00,75,00,00,00,0c,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,38,a1,bb,10,05,\ e5,10,1a,a1,bb,08,00,2b,2a,56,c2,00,00,45,4d,53,4d,44,42,2e,44,4c,4c,00,00,\ 00,00,00,00,00,00,1b,55,fa,20,aa,66,11,cd,9b,c8,00,aa,00,2f,c4,5a,0c,00,00,\ 00,53,41,47,53,52,56,31,00,2f,6f,3d,44,53,43,20,53,6f,66,74,77,61,72,65,20,\ 41,47,2f,6f,75,3d,44,53,43,53,41,47,2f,63,6e,3d,52,65,63,69,70,69,65,6e,74,\ 73,2f,63,6e,3d,63,64,00,00,00,00 ---------------end of reg file------------------------ -------------------export script (1)--------------------- Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") WshShell.Run ("regedit /s path\regfile.reg") WScript.Quit ---------------------end------------------------------- if you prefer to use environment variables use this script --------------------export script(2)--------------------- Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") WshShell.Run (WshShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("regedit /s %var_name%\path\regfile.reg")) WScript.Quit

the switch to use with msi file is /QN and about the hotfixes it's not a question of to many or not it's a question of whether you need them or not, so if you for eg install hotfixes for outlook or wmp9 and you don't use these programs in windows then u defenatly don't need these hotfixes or you install hotfixes that deal with different hardware you don't own or with other software conflicts you don't have, is another example

sorry for that i've corrected the mistake just copy and paste again

i supose that you want to run a script that will import those registry values so here you go(you know the deal save as *.vbs in notepad) Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") WshShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\User Agent","Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Win32)","REG_SZ" WshShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\NoNetAutodial",0,"REG_BINARY" WshShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\MigrateProxy","00000001","REG_DWORD" WshShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ProxyEnable","00000001","REG_DWORD" WshShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\EnableHttp1_1","00000001","REG_DWORD" WshShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ProxyOverride","192.9.202.88:3128","REG_SZ" WshShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\AutoConfigURL","http://pac.adress.com","REG_SZ" WScript.Quit

if you'd check drivers folder properties you would notice it gets the hidden and system file attributes(probably by setup program) so what i did was to add the following command before using the rd command ATTRIB -S -H -R "%systemroot%\drivers" /S /D RD "%systemroot%\drivers\" /S /Q no double delete no batch files in runonce no other "auxiliaries"

you're dammm right XPerties this posts made me wanna puke
