looking at your svcpack.inf - you sure its called dotnetfw and not dotnetfx like everyone elses?

no.....

/c: passes the arguments to setup_wm.exe. no need to extract. If that doesn't work (I've never actually used it, I use the OPK version of WMP9 on its own without the MM2.

You could create a iexpress package with those arguments, and then you would just use /Q:A /R:N for switches.

On the left, should be exampes of IEXPRESS usage.

Ummm...

I can't really help with the Media Player problem you're having. But I do have one question. And by the way, that's really nice commenting you've done in your srvpack.inf file.

How is it that you have only one entry in the [ProductCatalogsToInstall] section? I was under the impression that every kb*.exe program needed a cooresponding kb*.cat file to go with it. Is this incorrect?

Most people dont have any cats - and it has been said this only works with XP...but I believe its ok if he only has one...not even sure if he needs that one.

Wow, I can't read & type fast enough - thanks.

Thats the new name after repacking. It could have been anything but I just followed Green Machines guide to the letter.

Nois3.

The one *.cat in the inf is from the slipstreamed rollup, I don't honestly know how essential they are. All the HF's seem to install OK.

Thanks for your imput. I'm going to search for that OPK version now. I did try to adapt Green Machines technique to the MP9 but it crashed spectacularly.LOL

Just had a thought (I don't have many). If I unpack the bundled WMP9+MM2 can I use the files from there any easier. If so, which do I need?
