Lol! What?

Help out guys ... Please

Well the only way I can see if you already made the .iso is if you have DirectX9.0c redist on another CD/harddrive or download it.

So just install XP and run DirectX manually after that. You can't add ANYTHING after you made the iso.

I know I made a XP wersion myself and switched out a few programs a few years back before nlite even existed but I cant remeber where to read up on it, best bet is read through the files in the SUPPORT folder on the XP cd and check the MS site. Im 100% sure you can switch the old directX to a new one

ok i did all this with no problems

Guide to make a Silent Directx 9.0C install:

1- download directx 9.0c redist

2- extract

3- replace the dxsetup.exe by the new one here (a user already posted it up there)

4- You can delete Directx.cab and BDA.cab if you are running on Windows NT/2000/XP/2003

5- Start > Run > iexpress.exe

6- select "create new self extraction directive file"

7- select "extract files and run an installation command"

8- title: dx90csilent

9- select "no prompt"

10- "do not display a license"

11- add all the extracted files

12- in the first combobox (install program), select "dxsetup.exe" and add this string at the end: " /install /silent". It now should be "dxsetup.exe /install /silent"

13- select hidden

14- select "no message"

15- choose a path where the EXE install will be saved AND check "hide file extracting progress animation from user"

16- select "no reboot"

17- select "don't save"

18- click next

19- Done!

but now what do i do with the EXE file i just created ?

i put it in my CMDLINES.txt - and it did not work

so how can i make the file part of my slipstream ?

same prob, i follow this method and i made a dx9c.exe right? so i would like to use my svcpack.inf, but what i must digit on it? it's right like this:

[setupHotfixesToRun]

dx9c.EXE /silent

....

......

Perfect uo to now.

I have this problem too. Are you found any ideas ? (sorry for bad english)

ECHO.
ECHO Installing DirectX 9.0c
ECHO Please wait...
start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Directx9c\dxsetup.exe /silent

works for me everytime

has someone a explanation why the (IExpress-repacked with /silent) dxsetup from directx_9c_redist, run during a [b]W2K pro[/b] install (using SVCPACK.inf), installs somehow a [b]XP[/b] version (which is the cause of the USER32/GDI32 entry point pb, I suppose) ??

Hi all, in my native language namaste

Hi vijay, E-mailing each poster is not a solution.
Here's a guide for the exact purpose you mention - [url="http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/"]uA[/url]

Any further queries, just post on here!

For silent install I use this:

start /wait directx_jun2008_redist.exe /Q /T:"%temp%\DX9\"
%temp%\DX9\DXSETUP.exe /silent
del %temp%\DX9\" /F /S /Q
rd "%temp%\DX9\" /Q

and it works silent and clear.

Different, tho much the same.

Echo Launching DirectX installation.

%Source%Silence\directX.exe /t:"%temp%" /q

pushd "%temp%"

start /wait DXSETUP.exe /silent

popd

Suggest deleting temp dir after reboot instead, common practice.

Wrote about this in Kurt's x64 thread, and it's the one method currently in use.
