  1. a way to get Tablet to install using my select license key to avoid having to bother with activition

    The install of TabletPC depends on the cd-key. You'll have to call Microsoft about a volume license key for TabletPC. When/if you get it, all you have to do is create a XP Pro volume license cd, with the cmpnents folder from TabletPC on it.

    You may also have to add the cd2 marker file, 'WIN51IP2', in the root of the cd.

    When you install with your XP Pro select key, Windows XP Pro gets installed, and if you use your TabletPC vlk, Windows TabletPC gets installed. All from the same media.

    See more here:

  2. Sorry for the short and uninformative answer previously, but I was in a hurry...

    prathapml describes the differences for you.

    This winnt.sif installs Windows XP Pro or Home unattended, just stop asking for the cd-key, and then continues:

    ;SetupMgrTag
    [Data]
       AutoPartition=0
       MsDosInitiated="0"
       UnattendedInstall="Yes"

    [Unattended]
       UnattendMode=DefaultHide
       OemSkipEula=Yes
       TargetPath=\WINDOWS
       OemPreinstall=YES
       UnattendSwitch="no"

    [GuiUnattended]
       AdminPassword=*
       EncryptedAdminPassword=NO
       OEMSkipRegional=1
       TimeZone=110
       OemSkipWelcome=1

    [UserData]
       FullName="Standard User"
       OrgName=""
       ComputerName=STANDARD

    [Identification]
       JoinWorkgroup=WORKGROUP

    [Networking]
       InstallDefaultComponents=Yes

    Change the timezone, userdata and JoinWorkgroup to what is right for you.

  3. after having slipstreaming sp2 into a fresh copy of xp pro

    And the fresh copy is the right media? There is retail, volume or OEM media, and if your key is a retail key it won't work with volume or oem media, and the other way around.

    Just a thought. :blushing:

    *EDIT* I see teleri already explained that, maybe I should read the whole topic before replying... :blushing::blushing: *EDIT*

  4. Unpack your servicepack to a folder named svcpack in the same folder that you have the files folder of office 2003.

    Then go to the folder files\setup and add this after the [Product] section in the file setup.ini

    [ChainedInstall_1]
    TaskName=ServicePack 1
    TaskType=exe
    Path=FILES\SVCPACK\OHotFix.exe

    example:

    [Product]
    ProductCode=XXX
    ProductName=Microsoft Office 2003
    ProductVersion=XXX
    Recache=1

    [ChainedInstall_1]
    TaskName=ServicePack 1
    TaskType=exe
    Path=FILES\SVCPACK\OHotFix.exe

    [MST]
    ...

    This will install Servicepack1 after the install of Office...

    You MUST label the cd/dvd 'office2003patch', otherwise it won't work.

    But as the above post, it will take much longer to install.

  5. Try this, it depends on what kind of hotfix it is:

    @echo off
    setlocal
    set PATHTOFIXES=\\w2kserver\Share\update\hotfix\W2KSwe\
    %PATHTOFIXES%\KB823353.EXE /Q:A /R:N
    %PATHTOFIXES%\KB839645.EXE /Q /O /N /Z
    %PATHTOFIXES%\KB840315.EXE /Q /O /N /Z
    %PATHTOFIXES%\KB841872.EXE /Q /O /N /Z
    %PATHTOFIXES%\KB842526.EXE /Q /O /N /Z
    %PATHTOFIXES%\KB867801.EXE /Q:A /R:N
    %PATHTOFIXES%\KB870669.EXE /Q:A /R:N
    %PATHTOFIXES%\qchain.exe

    Check here for more info:

    Works for win2k as well.

    :hello:

  6. It seems Q873374 is a critical hotfix on all Windows NT systems.

    I would suggest that you make your unattended cd without the regtweak, and install Q873374 to see that you are not affected by this, and then add the regtweak as the last thing before you rebuild your cd. That way you know everything is ok.

    I installed IE6.0sp1-KB833989-x86-ENU.exe via svcpack.inf on windows 2000, and WindowsServer2003-KB833987-x86-ENU.EXE on windows 2003, and Q873374 is still listed as a critical hotfix on windows update. When installed all it does is telling me that I am secure... :D

    They why does the tool tell my I have products that may need updating?  This tool can't differentiate between WXPSP1 and SP2 or Office 2003 and Office 2003 SP1?!?!

    Maybe you have a version of .net framework installed that is affected? This is a tricky one.... :blink:

  7. Oh bugger, somebody beat me to it.
    Same time 01:01 :thumbup
    BTW,

    I have WXP SP2 and Office 2003 SP1. The tool told me I have software running that might need updating. Downloaded a bunch but each fix told me I'm already patched or running a newer update. (or something along those lines).

    http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/...n/ms04-028.mspx

    Non-Affected Software
    • Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2
    • Microsoft Office 2003 Service Pack 1

    @DisabledTrucker

    It depends on what software you have installed. A clean install of WinXP SP2 is not affected, but Windows 2000 with IE6 is affected, Office 2003 without SP1 likewise, and so on... This "update" for winxp is simply a tool that tells you that you should get updates for the programs you have installed....

  8. At first glance, it looks like a registry setting can show this update as installed. To be continued ...

    Confirmed..

    Adding this to the registry fools WU to think that the "hotfix" 873374 is installed:

    HKLM,"Software\Microsoft\GdiDetectionTool","GDITool",0x00010001,0x1

    I've attached a little exe that can be installed via svcpack.inf:

    [Version] 
    Signature="$Windows NT$"
    MajorVersion=5
    MinorVersion=1
    BuildNumber=2600

    [SetupData]
    CatalogSubDir="\i386\Hotfixes"

    [ProductCatalogsToInstall]

    [SetupHotfixesToRun]
    Q873374.exe /Q:A /R:N
    Q885626.exe /Q /O /N /Z
    qchain.exe

    What it does is executing this inf adding the regdata

    [Version]
    Signature="$Chicago$"

    [DefaultInstall]
    AddReg=AddDetectionReg

    [AddDetectionReg]
    HKLM,"Software\Microsoft\GdiDetectionTool","GDITool",0x00010001,0x1

    If you have any program listed under the two sections of Affected Software/components here:

    http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/...n/ms04-028.mspx

    You need to install that specific hotfix, but this works with a clean WinXP SP2 install.

    Q873374.exe
