Can't find hotfixes.cmd?


Recommended Posts

Wenn I have installed my burned XP CD and restartet, it says that it can't find hotfixes.cmd

I burn the contents from C:\WINXP\XPCD on my CD.

My 2 hotfixes that has to be installed with hotfixes.cmd is together with hotfixes.cmd in this path

C:\WINXP\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\Install\hotfixes

Have I misunderstanded somethin about the path to hotfixes and a burned CD ??

What's wrong???

Your path right now is pointing to the original location of the files. When you run Windows setup, that's NOT where those files are copied to. Any files in the $OEM$\$1 directory are copied to C:\ during setup. Therefore, your path should be c:\Install\hotfixes.cmd (or better yet, %systemdrive%\Install\hotfixes.cmd).

Okay. Thanks.

I have tryed that, but after installation it still can't find the hotfixes.cmd

Wenn I look at C drive on my new installed pc, there is no install folder.

So there has to be something wrong with my oem folder or sif file ???

is my hotfixes.cmd okay???

@echo off

ECHO.

start /wait %systemdrive%\install\hotfixes\KB817787.EXE /Q:A /R:N

ECHO.

start /wait %systemdrive%\install\hotfixes\Q832483.EXE /Q:A /R:N

ECHO

But maybe this is'nt the problem.

The message i get says that it can't find the hotfixes.cmd file.

And I can't find the install folder on my c drive.

So am I right to surpose that there is a problem with the installing of my $oem$ folders ?´

Remember that I burn the XPCD to a bootable XP CD and install it all from CD.

Is my sif file okay??

Thanks for using time to look it trough.

How stupid of me not to see that :-)

can I put comments in my sif file, that will not disturbe the installation?

I'm here thinking of comments that reminds me about what each line are doing...
