Hi there, just a brief question, Im not sure how this works any more. Last time I set this up (using 3.4.x) I had the disk set up like so: -XP -$oem$ -I386 -wpi.ico -WPi - Audio... etc I then had to alter winnt.sif to add the command at the end: [GuiRunOnce] "%systemroot%\system32\wpi.cmd" I had a wpi.cmd file in the system32 file which was then executed, found out what drive the wpi was on and launched it on the first login after the installation of XP: @ECHO OFF REM Example, how to look for CDROM-drive. Must have a file to identify in its root (like WIN51 or WPI.ico). for %%i in (C 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:\wpi.ico set CDROM=%%i: echo Found CD-Rom as drive %CDROM% REM Determine the WPI startup path. REM if wpi should run off the cd the replace %~dp0 with %cdrom%. set wpipath=%cdrom% REM Force resolution to needed size for wpi interface. start %wpipath%\common\VideoChanger.exe 1280x1024x32@85 -q REM Hide this command window. "%wpipath%\common\cmdow.exe" @ /hid REM Font installation - the smooth and customizable way. start /wait %wpipath%\common\fonts\fontinstaller.exe REM Special registry tweak needed. regedit /s "%wpipath%\common\wpi.reg" REM Make WPI directory the current directory. for /f "delims=: tokens=1" %%i in ("%wpipath%") do %%i: cd "%wpipath%" REM Start WPI and wait for its end start /wait WPI.hta REM Cleaning up the desktop. del /s/q "%userprofile%\desktop\*.lnk" REM Rebooting the sytem to finalize the installation process. shutdown.exe -r -f -t 10 -c "Reboot in 10 sec..." exit :end and so forth. However, now Im not sure what I have to do to set up WPI - has it changed or is it just a matter of altering what i used to do. Ive had a look through the forums so sorry if its blatantly obvious and I've missed it but I couldnt find anything on it any more - there used to be a section which told you a step by step to finalising your installation and so adding lines to the winnt.sif and so forth, but again couldnt find it this time. Thanks very much for your help, Il

Thanks very much for your help mate Lol not a problem - good to know someones happy lol! Illuvator

Hello there, a very brief and simple question, I last set up my WPI on version 4.3.x and decided to re-make my disk with a whole load of new stuff on it. On 4.3.x to put pictures for the applications I would put <img src="./graphics/Flash8.png" width="128" height="128"><br> into the description box and then the image would be shown when I moused over the app name. I notice that now in v 5.5 there is a box for the picture file, and in the example config on http://www.wpiw.net/config.htm you just have put in the filename Flash8.png Does this mean all I need to do is put the filename into the picture box and then put the file into ./graphics and it will work? Or do I have to link the file through with the file path? Thanks for your help. Illuvator

I was wondering whether anyone had the silent install switch/method to do this using WPI, as those i have seen so far havent said how to do it via WPI.

apologies, ive posted there now.

I couldnt find the commands to put in the command line of the WPI to order it to silent install these programmes: nLite, Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5, Nero 7. If it would be possible for someone to tell me what the command should be/point me to the relevant place on the forums that would be much appreciated. So far the command looks something like: %cdrom%\WPI\Install\Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5\Adobe Premiere Pro\setup.exe - I was wondering what i put after this (and the same for the other programmes) in order to make them silent install. My other question regards wpi.cmd It looks something like this at the moment, @ECHO OFF REM Example, how to look for CDROM-drive. Must have a file to identify in its root (like WIN51 or WPI.ico). for %%i in (C 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:\wpi.ico set CDROM=%%i: echo Found CD-Rom as drive %CDROM% REM Determine the WPI startup path. REM if wpi should run off the cd the replace %~dp0 with %cdrom%. set wpipath=%cdrom% REM Force resolution to needed size for wpi interface. start %wpipath%\common\VideoChanger.exe 1280x1024x32@85 -q REM Hide this command window. "%wpipath%\common\cmdow.exe" @ /hid REM Font installation - the smooth and customizable way. start /wait %wpipath%\common\fonts\fontinstaller.exe REM Special registry tweak needed. regedit /s "%wpipath%\common\wpi.reg" REM Make WPI directory the current directory. for /f "delims=: tokens=1" %%i in ("%wpipath%") do %%i: cd "%wpipath%" REM Start WPI and wait for its end start /wait WPI.hta REM Cleaning up the desktop. del /s/q "%userprofile%\desktop\*.lnk" REM Rebooting the sytem to finalize the installation process. shutdown.exe -r -f -t 10 -c "Reboot in 10 sec..." exit :end but when i ran the time i tested it, it said it could not locate the common\VideoChanger.exe and the same for font installer, and wpi.hta. Is there anything else i should change (other than just the %cdrom% at the top) in order for it to work properly. To make it work that time i just went through and altered everything to the exact directories, is that what i need to do? Apologies if this has all been said before, if it has please link me to where it is, Much thanks Illuvator
