How's this looking?

REG ADD %KEY%\170 /VE /D "Registering CDRWIN" /f

Will it work?

Thanks

it should, but god forbid you from testing it yourself.

Okay but what about the %CDROM% thing?

Do you use %CDROM% in your RunOneEx or do you use %SystemDrive%?

By the way, i just tried those lines i posted earlier and they didn't work What's the problem?

in your runonce file, do you have CDROM defined? if not that's a very good indication of why it didn't work.

You need to change the source path to what You actually have. It's not rocket science. And even then i bet you could get the right mixture of Oxygen and Helium to make your propellant and a nice aerodynamic design should be fairly simple after that.

Here's my RunOnceEx.cmd

EDIT:

Is that correct %CDROM% Variable code?

For some reason it is not copying Cdrwin.dat

Can i install drivers off the CD too?

Thanks

XCOPY

%CDROM%\Applications\CDRWIN\Cdrwin.dat

to

%systemdrive%\CDRWIN3\

Could someone please post the code for RunOnceEx.cmd?

Whatever i have isn't working?

Thanks

REG ADD %KEY%\120 /V 2 /D "cmd.exe /c\"xcopy /y %CDROM%\Applications\CDRWIN\Cdrwin.dat %systemdrive%\CDRWIN3\" /f

Okay let's say i want to install mIRC this way?

What would be some code for copying an entire directory including subfolders (and keeping file attribs) I'm sure i could figure this out if i knew the switches. Or even where they went? Do they go before /y?

Thanks

By the way, Thanks for the code Alanoll

get the switches yourself....

most DOS commands have a /? switch

type the command in a dos windows followed with the /?

it will tell you ALL

This is my best shot in a batch file:

XCOPY "%CDROM%\Applications\mIRC" "%systemdrive%\Program Files\mIRC" /E /I /Q /H /R /Y

Will this copy the whole directory?

Thanks

test the darn thing on your own system!!!

put mIRC in one folder, and set a destination somewhere you know to check for it.

then change the paths to suit your CD.

ok now alanoll calm down start breathing, nice and easy

breathe in, breathe out.

wuuusaaaah
