[new unattended build question]

what progma is the best for building a untended install and intergrated drivers the last 2 tries i have with rt7lite was ok for building the usb drive but not for intergrated the drivers as i kept getting errors i am thinking i really would liketo makea build with a choose you operation system menu for picking what machine in the house we are installing

for example

....

This would be for all 6 systems we have in the house for just the unatended installs and drivers the software would then be deployed over the wired gigabit network

[front port audio drivers in 7 ult 64bit]

I just bought the the wife a ECS IC780m-A2.

She is having an issue with windows 7's audio: if she plugs her headset in, it will act like it is it being plugged in and then unplugged, constantly.

If we only have a mic or headset by itself they will work...

We have gone to realtek and pulled the generic drivers...

Has anyone experienced this issue before?

She needs her headset for her online classes...

[unintended install with Network applications]

Please forgive me as I'm a newbie at in building Windows 7 unintended install files. I had great success with windows XP

I am looking to do a unintended Windows 7 ultimate install in a small nonprofit with five computers on a regular basis. We have a semi-large file server in our basement of 6 TB, but I would like to utilize

My goal for this would be to have the core operating system on the DVD launch install min. The following applications to be installed From the network server . This is a peer-to-peer network, so I use words server very loosely

The first application Windows 7 will install is a program we use exclusively in office called network drive manager. This is a network mapping software I have rewritten installer would be appropriate INI files in DLL files to allow the program to map all of our network drives upon first start about installation. This was done quite usually would install Creator Pro.

So my theory is if Windows can install just NBM the rest of our installs can be ran off of the server . I'm just not sure how to call the applications in the automated install file

I would like install the following

AbbyFine reader

Adobe acrobat

Microsoft expression studio "for myself"

Microsoft office 2010 "silent install for this is already built"

Dragon NaturallySpeaking

in our in-house text-to-speech software

Most of these applications are over 500 meg each. With the exception of our text-to-speech software, which averages about hundred meg

I am looking for the best utility or application that I can use to build unattended.XML file . As always, the best way to integrate add-ons without too much technical knowledge were reading my disability makes it extremely hard for me to achieve this.

Thank you very much for any help I can get from you guys. I greatly appreciate it
