Im lost and unsure if it can be done?

I have a program I am trying to install silently. Ghost 2003. Now I have 2 files that are for sure needed. The msi install and the data cab. As long as the msi program and the data cab are in the same folder, from xp I can install the program just fine. Everything works great. Making a sfx file only puts the stuff to install ghost after trying with virtual machine.

Ghost 2003 installs from a cd. It may be impossible. I can install ghost using nlite but requires interaction. Hitting this and that button. Any ideas?? I think I have tried about everything. I am almost sure there is a way, I will be darned If I can figure it out. Hope someone can help. I hope someone has made a silent install of ghost 2003 and can walk me thr I have a program I am trying to install silently. Ghost 2003. Now I have 2 files that are for sure needed.

so long story short your trying to make a cab file to integrate with nlite & your missing the silent installers for ghost 2003?

check here for nLite addon maker

then since u have an msi u want to install & u have to copy the 2 files needed? make a batch file & use /qn for your silent switch for your msi

xcopy to copy the files

Sorry for being to wordy. Bit confused on how to go about it. I have the msi installer and the cab file needed. I already have the tool you posted for making a cab file. Do I need to make a cab file with the nlite tool? If ya could give me a step by step on how to do this I would apreciate it tons. I can make a batch file. Not sure what needs to be written in the batch file. Any help greatly apreciated. Been trying this for a month on my own with no luck. I am assuming a .bat is a batch file. I use that to open a torrent program and peer guardian I made my self.

I found this for ghost 2003. Looks like it should work fine for the bat file. Just not sure how to put all the peaces of the puzzle together now.

ECHO.

ECHO Installing Norton Ghost 2003

ECHO Please wait...

start /wait "%systemdrive%\install\Applications\ghost\install\Norton Ghost.msi" /qb
