Vista driver install, file replace, run executable and unsigned driver

[Yering]

Hi all,

I wrote these to bypass the Vista driver install, file replace, run executable and unsigned driver prompts during my machine unattended installs.

These autoit scripts are nothing special but hopefully folks will find them useful.

To use these scripts simply execute them in the background before attempting to install any apps / drivers etc. and they will automatically respond to the prompts that they are configured for.

while True

	if Winexists("Windows Security", "Install this driver software anyway") then
		WinActivate("Windows Security", "Install this driver software anyway")
		send("!i")
	EndIf

	sleep(2000)

wEnd

while True

	if Winexists("Open File - Security Warning", "Are you sure you want to run this software?") then
		WinActivate("Open File - Security Warning", "Are you sure you want to run this software?")
		send("!r")
	EndIf

	sleep(2000)

wEnd

while True

	if Winexists("Error", "The existing file is newer than the one Setup is trying to install.") then
		WinActivate("Error", "The existing file is newer than the one Setup is trying to install.")
		send("!y")
	EndIf

	sleep(2000)

wEnd

while True

	if Winexists("Windows Security", "You should only install driver software from publishers you trust.") then
		WinActivate("Windows Security", "You should only install driver software from publishers you trust.")
		send("!i")
	EndIf

	sleep(2000)

wEnd

Sorry,

but what are these scripts? VBS or AUTOIT? Or .... ?

Oops - these are autoit scripts...

I love the idea of this, but I am at a loss where to run it in my vista unattended setup. I am installing my drivers during stage 5, so I'm not sure when I should call this script.
