[bardugu]

hi ..

after 35,000 attempts, i give up

i tried everything i could

i'm trying to set the regional settings to add hebrew input locale .

and of course the language bar so i could type hebrew fonts ..

all i managed to do is installing the hebrew files, but i couldnt get the input locale set, and no language bar ..

can someone help me with the winnt.sif ??

my current settings are -

[RegionalSettings]

LanguageGroup=12,1

SystemLocale=00000409

UserLocale=0000040d

InputLocale=0409:00000409

thanks

Did you create your winnt.sif through the Setup Manager? You should be able to set it up that way. It should produce a bit of code in the unattend.txt (which you can rename to winnt.sif) that looks like this:

[RegionalSettings]
    LanguageGroup=12,1
    Language=0000040d

As far as burning through CDs... I went and bought some CD-RWs today, that's cut down on my CD burnage, despite the relative cheapness of CD-Rs. Also, I've been testing my installs on VirtualPC (some prefer VMWare, although I have yet to get that to work...), which only gets me so far before testing on the real thing...

Let me know if that works. You may also want to do a google search for the RegionalSettings LanguageGroup and Language codes or numerical values. Should turn up what you want.

There's a couple of links in this thread that may be of some help.

You might like to set the regional settings to your liking, and then go to the registry and export the below keys:

; Set "Location" to India
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International\Geo]
"Nation"="113"

; India-specific Regional settings
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International]
"iCountry"="1"
"iCurrency"="0"
"iDate"="1"
"iLZero"="1"
"iMeasure"="0"
"iNegCurr"="0"
"iTime"="0"
"iTLZero"="0"
"Locale"="00000409"
"s1159"="AM"
"s2359"="PM"
"sCountry"="United States"
"sCurrency"="Rs."
"sDate"="-"
"sLanguage"="ENU"
"sShortDate"="dd-MMM-yyyy"
"sTimeFormat"="h:mm:ss tt"

That was my registry values, you'll have a different set of values once you have it set to how you want. Also, note that those tweaks listed above (for HKCR) will need to be imported through cmdlines.txt.

If you don't understand how to do something, then have a proper read of the guide here: http://unattended.msfn.org/

That's why I started out using RW media, then when I need an update I can just re-write over the first one.

I'm using DVD-RW's now. Makes things much easier. IMHO

Bardugu - if you managed to solve this problem, can you specify the way please?

If you can paste the code it would be great.

Thanks,

Mman.

problem solved ..

in the winnt.sif

theses are the lines setupmgr created me :

[RegionalSettings]

LanguageGroup=12,1

SystemLocale=00000409

UserLocale=0000040d

InputLocale=0409:00000409

the last line is in charge on the inputs .. daahhh

so i added " ,040d:0000040d " ..

(

[RegionalSettings]

LanguageGroup=12,1

SystemLocale=00000409

UserLocale=0000040d

InputLocale=0409:00000409,040d:0000040d

You can use the Virtual PC to test it, then you don't have to trash million cds. hahaha

Or you can use VMware - get a 30 day trial from here:

Don't you have a direct download link?

[prathapml]

Don't you have a direct download link?

direct DL to VMware WorkStation 4.5.2 (34MB)

There you go! Happy?

But please note that while you can get the download from that direct link above, you still need to register and fill out a form to get a serial key for evaluation e-mailed to you. But if you have got hold of some sort of crack/keygen, then no problems. Enjoy!

Thanks, prathapml.

I just had a headache filling out forms on web sites, especially, I know they should rain on me with their emails.

I'm downloading it now.

My current version is 3.5.

Thanks again.
