sp00f Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 i unpacked it and just run the msi with /qn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shark007 Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 i unpacked it and just run the msi with /qnThe above proceedure is NOT RECOMMENDED because you will bypass pertinent installation commands. The recommended unattended installation for Vista is to extract and use the provided switchless installer contained within the integration file provided for XP users. Within this download is vcpack.exe and also instruction on how to use it for languages other than english. This installer does not require any switches.shark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shark007 Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Whatever, works fine for me.I dont want an addon, verey useless.I'm glad to hear this type of installation is enough to satisfy your needs but as the package developer,I DO NOT RECOMMEND this proceedure.Please do not recommend this to others.A major drawback amongst others is the fact that this type of installdefeats the possibilty of removing and re-adding components at will.If it is enough to have working codecs, by all means, continue as you were, but most users will want the full capabilities of this package.The recommended unattended installation is NOT an addon and has no addons involved,it is just a name for the package that the RVM integrator recognizes, nothing more.shark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonycrew Posted July 4, 2007 Author Share Posted July 4, 2007 RVM integrator doesn't work with vista...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shark007 Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 RVM integrator doesn't work with vista...?No it doesnt at this time. I recommend you download the integrated package, extract vcpack.exe from that package and simply cause it to be executed during the Vista unattended installation. If you need a language other than english, read the INI file for further information.shark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XL-DJK Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 (edited) I agree with Shark.... what's the purpose oof having installed a powerful Codec Pack without it's ability to update/remove install key components as well? no point in the pack then. He made this pack to pretty much be the end-all of worries on having codecs properly installed and readily available to access anything in NEED of codecs......just go with complete install man, it's the best option and besides, it hardly uses any space and incredibly easy to integrate fully silently Edited July 4, 2007 by XL-DJK95355 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonycrew Posted July 4, 2007 Author Share Posted July 4, 2007 (edited) I know it's good i have it installed but i am having trouble doing the intergrate silently thing... i downloaded the package do i just use a sync command and run the CMD file..?

MAVERICKS CHOICE Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 T, explain to us how you are installing what cmd are you running? What method do you use for your install?eg batch, runonce, wpi. You could use what I posted above to silently install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonycrew Posted July 5, 2007 Author Share Posted July 5, 2007 I have made an Autounattend.xml with WSIM, i also have WPI set to run with a SetupComplete.cmd in the DVD\SOURCES\$OEM$\$$\SETUP\SCRIPTS folder...I would like to silent install from the setup complete command if possible so it's automatic..... If you have silent install can you see a progress bar so you know when it's done..?SetupComplete.cmd @echo offfor %%A 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 %%A\bootmgr ( if not exist %%A\setup.exe ( echo. echo Installing to drive %%A echo. if exist %%A\menu.lst attrib %%A\menu.lst -h -r -s if exist %%A\menu.lst ren %%A\menu.lst menu_lst.bak if exist %%A\grldr attrib %%A\grldr -h -r -s copy %systemroot%\setup\scripts\grldr %%A\grldr attrib %%A\grldr +h +s +r %systemroot%\setup\scripts\bootinst /nt60 %%A ) ))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:\sources\install.wim set CDROM=%%i:echo Found CD-Rom as drive %CDROM%RMDIR %UserProfile%\Desktop\SerialsRD %UserProfile%\Desktop\SerialsREM SETTING WALLPAPERREG ADD "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop" /v Wallpaper /t REG_SZ /d %systemroot%\Web\Wallpaper\UltimateStart_1920x1440.jpg /fREG ADD "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\General" /v Wallpaper /t REG_EXPAND_SZ /d %%systemroot%%\Web\Wallpaper\UltimateStart_1920x1440.jpg /fREG ADD "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\General" /v BackupWallpaper /t REG_EXPAND_SZ /d %%systemroot%%\Web\Wallpaper\UltimateStart_1920x1440.jpg /fStart %cdrom%\install\update.exeStart %cdrom%\WPI\wpi.htadel %0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAVERICKS CHOICE Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 T,do you have winrar or 7zip? If so check out the search function & look for Keytotime's excellent guide.Since you are using the setupcomplete.cmd you could first pack Sharks codecs into a sfx & run with wpi.Hope that helps?btw nice scripting in your setupcomplete.cmd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
