Thanks

Ok im still new at all this but does anyone know what order I should be doing this in and if so am I right. -nlite - Setting up windows -setupmgr.exe - Setting up winnt.sif -cd image - burning an image then trying to install.. cause i just did that and it comes up in the setup and says the syssetup.inf is corrupt or missing... and it will not let me go any further

I was thinking the same thing

Im looking to install in this order -Adobe Acrobat 7 reader -Spybot search and destroy -Ultra VNC -Macromedia Flash Player -Cisco VPN Client -Microsoft Office 2003 Pro

...

I've been trying to following allong with the guide to an unatended windows installation and im so not succsessful. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to help me set one up I only have 5 apps and Microsoft Office 2003. I know most people will read this and be like "wow that guy is retarded" I just cant seem to grasp the runonce exe so if someone would be cool enough to help me I'll hook them up with somthines i dunno what but ill make it worth there wild.

i cant see tha timage my work blocks photobucket lol I want to boot from a DVD and have everything I need on there

I set up my unatended XP pro with nlite and then took it a bit further and tried to use runonceex and for some reason when I go to install it asks me for the windows xp pro sp2 disk. We at have the sp2 disc built into out XP install.. So I got that on there and when it went into installing it did not add it to the network right then it added none of my custom apps like i asked it to in runonceex I dont know what im doing wrong but its all messed up. 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%\Install\ SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "" /f REG ADD %KEY%\000 /VE /D "Adobe Reader 6" /f REG ADD %KEY%\000 /V 1 /D "%PP%\adobe\AdbeRdr707_en_US.exe /silent" /f REG ADD %KEY%\001 /VE /D "Spybot Search and Destroy" /f REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 1 /D "%PP%\spybot\spybotsd14.exe /silent" /f REG ADD %KEY%\002 /VE /D "Ultra VNC" /f REG ADD %KEY%\002 /V 1 /D "%PP%\vnc\UltraVNC-101-Setup.exe /silent" /f EXIT Thats how I have it set up and It wont do nothing.. below is also my winnt.sif _______________________________________________________ ; Generated by nLite 1.0 RC7 [Data] Autopartition = 0 MsDosInitiated = 0 UnattendedInstall = "Yes" [unattended] UnattendMode = FullUnattended UnattendSwitch = "No" OemPreinstall = "Yes" OemSkipEula = "Yes" FileSystem = * WaitForReboot = "No" NoWaitAfterTextMode = 1 NoWaitAfterGUIMode = 1 DriverSigningPolicy = Ignore NonDriverSigningPolicy = Ignore [systemRestore] [GuiUnattended] EncryptedAdminPassword = "No" AdminPassword = "*******" OEMSkipRegional = 1 OemSkipWelcome = 1 [shell] DefaultThemesOff = "Yes" DefaultStartPanelOff = "Yes" [Components] [userData] ProductKey = "xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx" ComputerName = xxxxx FullName = "xxxx" [RegionalSettings] Language = "0409" [Networking] InstallDefaultComponents = "Yes" [identification] DomainAdmin = ******* DomainAdminPassword = "*******" JoinDomain = "blah" _____________________________________________ I honestly think i have no idea what im doing and thats probly why its not working

Is there a step by step guide other than the one on here about how to use Runonceex.cmd creator after you use nlite to make your XP iso... I'm not that good with scripting so i need it kinda put out there real basic I have a bunch of programs to install and want it to go a certain way.. also need office 20003 installed after XP.. Any help would be awsome thanks

Ok one thing that I dont understand is... Where do I add these lines like open up RunOnceEx.cmd Creator and just started adding each line indavidually and then save the file in the $oem$ folder. And since im going off a DVD will my system drive be displayed like this. REG ADD %KEY%\005 /VE /D "TITLE FOR FIRST APP BEING INSTALLED" /f REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\FIRSTAPPFOLDERNAME\INSTALL EXE OR MSI" /f Ad in D being the drive letter

Ok

I want it all to come off a DVD This is the order I want it to go in 1.XP Pro sp2 - Already Done with nlite 2.Updates - Already Done with nlite 3.Office 2003 4.Flash 5.Shockwave 6. Ultra VNC 7. Adobe Reader 8. Cisco VPN Client 9. Spybot If that is possible at all

Yes I did it with nlite I have all my hotfixes/updates built into it and thats about it

Hopefully ill get it soon my company gave me this as a project and I can only get so far and now i see this scripting and im like yeah im lost lol. thanks for your help though

Thanks.. Now when you put in "z:\Microsoft\Office2003StandardSP1\Setup4MagicCD.cmd" /f what is the z:\ drive ... that a network drive and also how does it find the keycode and custom setting information.. is that off of setup4magiccd.cmd

Ok hope you guys don’t read this and make fun of me but. This is what I want to do... I want to make a boot CD that will install. Windows XP Molp License with updates and patches All our windows XP custom Settings Then install custom applications Then install Microsoft office 2003 I know there are guides and such on here I understand the nlite version and I can do that but once I get to the runoneex.cmd I just don’t get it ive never been going with any kind of scripting at all.. Is there any real simple way to do all of that...? Please let me know..

Ok here is my question but with a little background. I’ve been working in IT for about 3 years now and im finally starting to do some interesting stuff but I need someone to give me the basics or where to start or even how to. I want to take my company’s licensed version of xp pro and do an unattended install and have it go through everything without having to sit there and hit next, next, next and also have it install custom apps and settings the way our company likes them. Is there easy way to do that? If anyone can help that would be awsome thanks
