Email me screen shots. I put address in second PM, I have an idea worked out on how to get the PnPDeviceID into the Conds easily. Should work nicely.

I did some research into this.........turns out it wasn't what I thought it was. The paths in the themes are fine, fortunately. This won't mean any updates. Big relief there!!!!! The problem is the pngbehavior.htc file. If I take it out, the images load fine. I did some testing, the file had some errors in it from day one. I had to step through line by line to determine there were 2 errors. It works fine now.

The only thing I can think of doing would be to run WPI on a ready system, look at the new Hardware tab to get your info, then build your Conditions around that. getSysManufacturer()=="IBM" && getSysModel()=="XYZ" then use this driver -OR- I can get the devices' PnP Device ID and you can base it on that: getPNPDeviceID()=="PCI\VEN_asdhg43273746ghghe" then use this driver That is always there, how the device is found in the first place.

WMI can't read the chipset info. I did add checks for: BIOS, MoBo, System, Video, Audio, LAN, Modem, Enclosure. Now, these work fine from desktop. I have yet to do a full test from a fresh install. That's where you guys come in. I Use nLite to incorporate mine. Will be a different story for IT guys. I am afraid the details will be blank/wrong since the drivers are not installed yet. If the info I am using is hardcoded into the device, then no problem. Fingers crossed.

Strange. I will look in to it this weekend............

I added: getBIOSManufacturer(), getBIOSVersion(), getBIOSCaption(). Need System Management BIOS version????

Does any one want/need info about their computer's BIOS? Install certain drivers on certain BIOS?????

Actually, now that I look at it more, you won't get the information you need. I will make a quick update and see if I can get the correct strings you need.

Start WPI, press Alt+G and look at the architecture tab. If you can tell them apart with those fields, then you can use them in Cond/GCond. See the other tabs on how to use them. But nothing I know of can do the UMTS cards.

Couldn't you just use a RegEdit in a command to add the key early in the install process, then remove when done? Maybe in Execute Before/After? Yes, don't edit the code manually. Something will go wrong down the road.

It's looking like the sorting will get a facelift. To have the children work properly then ALL items must have an install order assigned (at least the parent and matching children. just easier to give them all one). Sorting will be broken down to something like this: For the installer, the real order of installing: [ ] Install by category (your assigned category Sort Order) ( ) Install by name (alphabetically) (probably not needed) ( ) Install by install order (numerically) Install by category is optional. If checked then it will sort within each category by name or order. If not checked, global sort by name or order will apply. For the main page, in the categories, display purposes only: ( ) Sort by name ( ) Sort by install order Sorting will ALWAYS be on, just how will be the only option. I will be pushing for Install Order to prevent weird happenings with sub-items.

That issue is fixed. That message has been removed and will not error now. The new 7.2.0 will be out November 28th.

It's not documented because it is not difficult to use. FILECOPY "C:\test.exe" "Z:\" Are you sure the file exists?

If there is a way to turn UAC off with a reg key, make it the first command WPI runs. Change reg keys, reboot, continue with installation.

Let me put this fire under you: I figured out how to add sub-items, both checkboxes and radios. But until we get the install order issue somewhat fixed, the sub-items don't always get put under their parent because of sorting issues. So if you want sub-items for the next upcoming release, and I know you do, post some suggestions.

Never mind. I wrote my own code. Handled internally now. ExtractToPath.vbs is history!

Can someone verify that %extract% is working? It does not for me.

Huh? Details!

Take the open paranethis out cmd1 [pn] = ['FILECOPY "\\%wpipath%\\Install\\wpi_log.txt" "\\%PROGRAMFILES%\\"']; double slashes in config.js only. Not in the actual config wizard.

I have been asked a few times recently to have some sort of auto-fill-in for Install Order. I guess I could scan the list of entries, find the highest one, add one, stick it in. But that doesn't guarantee that is how the user would want it. How would you like to see it done? It would be an option to use this so no one would be forced to use it. Post your ideas and soon. New version coming out soon.

crahak: Great idea. Implemented it and works great. Thanks.

Maybe not so sweet. I looked at 2 factory installed Dell's at work, neither had tskill. What Vista are you using, Ricktendo?

It saves the file names in reg keys, so running from dvd will default to config.js and useroptions.js. config.js COULD be saved in useroptions.js, but would have to always use useroptions.js then if don't specify command line args. Then why not just use an arg for the config then? 6 of 1, half a dozen of the other. It's more of a desktop/network share situation. When go into Config wizard and pick a different file, go back to main window and use it. Now when you quit, restart, what file should be loaded? config.js or the one you just had used?

I did vLite it and probably did remove it. Sweet. Either way, code already done for XP/Vista. Can take it back out. Thanks

I made a way to internally handle this problem. Now I need to know what OS uses what command. Vista: taskkill XP: tskill 2000: tskill 2003: ??? 2008: ??? I am assuming if not Vista, then use tskill. Tell me if I am wrong.
