submix8c Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 AFAICT, still boils down to Install PreActivated via a KEY in SYSPREP.INF (OEM or VOLume, NOT retail) and perhaps WINBOM.INI (Factory?).Basically REQUIRES that Source is NOT Retail (again AFAICT) and a SYSPREP-style Install (WinPE). At least, this is my understanding (digging through DELL Restore Partition inside the IMAGE on it). HOW? Not really sure YET, but indicates what YOU want to do is via (perhaps/maybe) a WinPE-based CD/DVD install.(yeah, I've been digging into SYSPREP for my own purposes...)

rigorous Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) Then why don't you (YOU have to do it by Editing Post#1)?I've thought that only admin can do that THAT way, dude! Forget the rest! Set it up as a WPI Install and let WPI install it AFTER the "base installs". myselfidem found that link from the search I gave (you didn't). I'm a newbie in the field of unattended installations. As I can see, you suggest to use a WPI method with something like this: ['msiexec.exe /i "%wpipath%\\Install\\Shrink\\LIPSetup.msi" /qn'] where I have to put this code? And why we have "\\" ?

submix8c Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) (uggg!!! NO not "Uggs", Mods )You need to go to this Sub-Forum and do some "light" reading.Here (the Official Website) you will find a wealth of information.As for the double-backslash, there's a REASON based on the coding of the WPI modules. Basically, don't ask just follow instructions and when you get into trouble using it post a new topic over in the Sub-Forum I listed above.Please note (JFYI) that WPI can be run from CD/DVD or HDD either Directly or Silently (etc etc) and that the "path" you used was an EXAMPLE and there's a certain way/folders to place the Programs-To-Be-Installed according to instructions (see links given).Don't be deterred - WPI isn't rocket science. See ya in the other Sub-Forum. AND please be so kind as to (when you get it working) to come BACK here and give details as to how you did it for others that may wonder.HTH Edited January 25, 2013 by submix8c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rigorous Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 Brothas thank you very much for the help but that's not what I'm looking for Name of our topic is: "How to install LIPSetup.msi file from cmdlines.txt?"We have to conclude that it is not possible to do, right?Instead of WPI I've decided to embed files from LIPSetup in my desired WXP disk on a tricky way.1) I made a new installation inside VM software and installed LIPSetup.msi after that.2) I copied all .dll, .cpl and .exe files contained inside LIP and translated them into CAB format as DL_, EX_ etc. It wasn't such a hard job as I expected. Only one thing is still unsolved. Namely, I don't know where to put LIP's html files from %\Windows\Help\MySupport and %\System32\oobe\mui\0c1aAlso, dunno what to do with XML files from %\Windows\srchasst\mui\0c1aExaxtly, I'll have to find WXP english CAB file where the same files are placed and simply replace them.
