Install directory not found

[Tischnoetentoet]

Hi all,

I have an cd with several installers in the directory $OEM$\$1\Install

I.e. MSN with the installer MsnMsgs.msi

When the setup reaches the 12 minutes, it is trying to install the applications, but he says the file c:\Msn\MsnMsgs.msi cannot be found....

How is this possible???

Thanks for reading my problem!

btw. this happens for all installing applications, not only for msn...

Is OEMPreinstall="yes" in the winnt.sif file?

This is the most overlooked problem, please make sure you read all of http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/winnt_sif.htm because its mentioned there.

This is a part of my winnt.sif file

[unattended]    UnattendMode=FullUnattended    OemSkipEula=Yes    OemPreinstall=No                            <-------    TargetPath=\WINDOWS    OemPreinstall=Yes                           <-------    UnattendSwitch="yes"    WaitForReboot="No"    ProgramFilesDir="c:\"    OemPnPDriversPath="Drivers\001_printer;Drivers\002_scanner"    DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore

****, it stood there 2 times

Thanks for the quick help!

well if u put it under install folder

u should call it

c:\install\Msn\MsnMsgs.msi..

i think that's why it cannot find it.

post the batch file to make sure...
