i saw the thread and it did not help

i tried this same method, but with 1280 by 1024. at first everything is ok... once teh screen flickers twice while installing devices, I still get the blue border to the right and bottom of my billboard. ;Resolution Setup Billboard HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VgaSave\Device0","DefaultSettings.BitsPerPel",0x00010001,32 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VgaSave\Device0","DefaultSettings.XResolution",0x00010001,1280 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VgaSave\Device0","DefaultSettings.YResolution",0x00010001,1024 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F4867732A}\0000","DefaultSettings.BitsPerPel",0x00010001,32 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F4867732A}\0000","DefaultSettings.XResolution",0x00010001,1280 HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{23A77BF7-ED96-40EC-AF06-9B1F4867732A}\0000","DefaultSettings.YResolution",0x00010001,1024 I just pasted that in at the bottom of the ini. is it supposed to go somewhere else?

Upon first boot, I get a found new harware wizard.... cdrom drive. I have used same installation on many machines and always get the same thing. Its no big deal, but its annoying because it happens durring app install via runonceex. Any suggestions how to fix this? I AM NOT INSTALLING AL120 OR DAEMON TOOLS. Found new hardware wizard just appears out of the blue. I am using RyanVM PostSP2 Pack, addons and nlite.

I have my billboard set up quite nicely, but when i am installing in a real enviornment (not vmware,) the billboard is smaller than the screen. It sort of runs in the left top corner with a blue border to the right and bottom. It seems as though my billboard is smaller than my default resolution. (1280 by 1024.) Any clues how to fix this?

glad to have been of assistance (to those of you who missed the "100" other posts.) I do my fare share of asking for help here, so i try to share what little knowledge I can.

I am trying to install jet audio via runonceex. cmdow @ /HID @Echo Off FOR %%i IN (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%i:\win51ip.SP2 SET CDROM=%%i: SET PP=%cdrom%\Apps\ SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "Installing Apps" /f REG ADD %KEY%\000 /VE /D "install.exe" /f REG ADD %KEY%\000 /V 1 /D "%PP% -S -f1" /f EXITmy setup.iss is in the Apps folder along with jet audio. How do i specify the path to the setup.iss? i know the path should be specified after REG ADD %KEY%\000 /V 1 /D "%PP% -S -f1" I just have no clue what it is... and it must be the exact location of the iss file. (not %systemroot%, or %cdrom%) I have tried everything... including winrar.sfx. I tried ectracting to temp folder, and then tried everything from "%temp%setup.iss" to trying to name the exact location. THIS IS BLOWING MY MIND.

copy and paste my friend..... if I were typing, they would have been 1,2,3,4... .exe

I made something of a frankenstein cd. (same method could be used for runonceex, or whatever method you use for installing switchless installers. First I slisptreamed service packs into office 2003, then downloaded all 9 updates and extracted them. I repacked them with wirar .sfx (setting to extract to temp folder, and run the XXX.msp /passive /norestart.) I then placed all 9 (repacked) updates into the folder with office. My start.cmd is cmdow @ /hid Start /Wait PRO11.MSI /qb-! start /wait office2003-KB907417-FullFile-ENU.exe start /wait office2003-KB913807-FullFile-ENU.exe start /wait office2003-KB914455-FullFile-ENU.exe start /wait office2003-KB916518-FullFile-ENU.exe start /wait office2003-KB917334-FullFile-ENU.exe start /wait office2003-KB918419-FullFile-ENU.exe start /wait office2003-KB920103-FullFile-ENU.exe start /wait office2003-KB920907-FullFile-ENU.exe start /wait office2003-KB921566-FullFile-ENU.exe EXIT I then deleted the original setup.exe, made an au3 script and compiled to Setup.exe Run("start.cmd") and then, the autorun.inf [AutoRun] open=Setup.exe After installing xp, I just throw this cd in (or mount the image) and let it run. Granted, my cd is 680mb, but I actually prefer this method because it takes so long to extract office (using the 7zip switchless installer method.)

Mazin, I know that svcpack.ini is a great way to install a lot of apps. But, until yesterday, this and $OEM$/$1/Install methods were the only ones I would (knew how to) use. The Runoncex method seems so much more logical when installing , i dunno, say 1/2 a dvds worth of (third party) applications. I was using RyanVMs WMP10_addon, but I will get working on your method asap. It is somewhat frustrating to have to rebuild my ALMOST perfected installation. But, then again, thats what we do... add monthly updates to our xpcd, update the switchless installers as new releases come out, and then.. KABLAM... Vista will be out. We begin the process all over again... and when its all said and done, it probably would have been easier just to install our apps and updates like any "normal" person. We enjoy planting a seed rather than just buying the fruit.

I install WMP from SVCPACK and I'm able to delete or add shortcuts from there without problems. This sticks to any user account on my machine. And then I don't need DEL %0 because a CMD executed from SVCPACK will be deleted by itself. do you mind sharing how you do it?

this project has led to much more than I anticipated. I now have a runonceex.cmd installing winamp (stealing the audio file associations from WMP10 ... my cmdlines.txt integrates reg tweaks, and a few other .cmds. I am happy to have learned that svcpack.ini, or $OEM$/$1/Install batch script methods are not the best method for installing many apps. Why copy files to your hard drive, extract them, then install them... when they can be left on the cd for extraction?!? However, I am still stuck on the stupid del.cmd (which I have modified to remove other shortcuts) @echo off DEL "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Windows Update.lnk" del "%userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Outlook Express.lnk" >nul del "%userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories\Entertainment\Windows Media Player.lnk" >nul del "%userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Remote Assistance.lnk" >nul del "%userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Windows Media Player.lnk" >nul rem del myself DEL /Q /F %0 this code works for my account, but i would like for the same code to be implemented when creating new users. I suppose if I am to stick with this method, I will have to remove rem del myself DEL /Q /F %0 thus running at every startup. This is definately not the route I intend to take. Until I come up with a better method for deleting these shortcuts, I am open for further suggestions.

$OEM$\$DOCS\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\del.cmd del.cmd reads: @echo off del "%UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories\Entertainment\Windows Media Player.lnk" del "%userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Windows Update.lnk" >nul rem del myself DEL /Q /F %0 but, what about when adding new users?

ok... maybe this will work. Both files are in $OEM$ cmdlines.txt: [Commands] "rundll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection nLite.inf,nLiteReg" "RunOnceEx.cmd" RunOnceEx.cmd: cmdow @ /hid del "%userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Windows Media Player.lnk" >nul EXIT Will this correct my problem? Sorry, I have never used runoncex b4. OR do i need to edit my winnt.sif RunOnceEx cmdow @ /HID del "%userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Windows Media Player.lnk" >nul EXIT

I ahve also tried del "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Windows Media Player.lnk" >nul AND del "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\ADMIN\Start Menu\Programs\Windows Media Player.lnk" >nul "ADMIN" is my renamed ADMINISTRATOR account. I have tried calling .cmd file from both guirunonce and command.txt I dont understand.... ALL .cmd files work great as long as windows has booted, but they dont work in a preinstall enviornment.

worked like a charm.... thanks EDIT: actually, this worked fine whil I was running the os, I tried executing this .cmd from cmdlines.txt. and guirunonce. In both cases, the shortcut was still there. My exact .cmd is cmdow @ /hid del "%userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Windows Media Player.lnk" >nul EXIT

this may be a rediculously stupid question, but whats the easies way to delete the WMP shortcut from start menu/all programs? I am getting ready to test a new install via vmware, and I would like to begin testing now.

I am almost satisfied with my current results. I remove wmp with nlite, install k-lite mega, and the wmp lite browser plugin (both via svcpack.ini).... I just keep running into wmasf.dll and wmidx.dll. seems like everytime I install an app (UltraISO, tmpgenc, etc...) I have to manually put the dlls in the app directory. EDIT: These .dll files obviously are being removed with wmp. If i simply put these files in $OEM$/$$/System32, or maybe compressed them to dl_ and put them back into my I386, would this correct my problem?

@ elajua THANKS BRO. thats exactly what i was looking for. I got Windows Media Lite, packed it up and gave it a /VERYSILENT /COMPONENTS="browserplugin" Who needs WMP. EDIT: To save space, I installed wmp lite with FF plugin, used SOF to repack FF. Now, I only need to install my repacked FF durring setup. DEATH TO WMP!

no problem, I can handle opening the links in IE. Most video files are real player or quicktime anyway. PEACE

EDIT: WMP plays teh file... but only in IE. I use Firefox.... can i get WMPClassic to play the file in firefox?

I used nlite to remove WPM, I added the K-Lite mega codec pack, and winamp (with audio extensions only.) I love all results except one issue. I cannot play streaming WMV files in my browser. For example MOVIE: SNATCH The advertisement in the beginning plays fine, but when the wmv video starts, I am prompted to install a plugin (WMP.) Now, on to my question. Is there a way to add the latest wmp to my installation, but remove ALL file associations, OR install a LITE version of WMP for the sole purpose of playing WMV files in my browser.

thanks very much for this... i didnt think i would like it without smart start.... but, now, I wouldnt have it any other way. great job!

Sorry I dont have time to read every post of the msfn forums, nor the time to criticize the posts of those who are trying to help.

Choose the apps and codecs and tweaks you want installed with k-lite mega codec pack. Its much easier than you think. Customize your settings. 1. Download K-Lite Mega Codec Pack 1.57 2. Start/run/"LOCATION\klmcodec157.exe" -MakeUnattended 3. Select components you want installed and configure your personal settings. When wizard finishes, you have three files (klmcodec157.exe, klmcp.bat, klmcp.ini) 4. Add these files to winrar .sfx archive. Choose extract to temp folder and run klmcp.bat after extraction you can run the .sfx you just created from SVCPACK.INF
