I use these for flash and shockwave:

ECHO.
ECHO Installing Flash and Shockwave Player
ECHO Please wait...
start /wait %CDROM%\Software\Flash\Flash.exe /q
start /wait %CDROM%\Software\Flash\Shockwave.exe /SILENT

perhaps not as fancy but certainly does the job.

where can i get "flash.exe"? Macromedia just offers the direct ActiveX installation

i got the link from some thread in here... let me search...

EDIT:

here: http://www.macromedia.com/go/full_flashplayer_win_ie

that guide says to rename flash.ocx to swflash.ocx and then compress it. in sp2, it should not be renamed. there is a file in the i386 folder called flash.oc_. if u expand it and check properties it is macromedia flash 6.

My original inf looks like this (Norwegian):

[strings]
productname="Shockwave Flash"
GUID = "{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000}"
GUIDFACT = "{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000}"
DefaultName = "Macromedia Shockwave Flash"
ComponentID = "Midlertidig ledig-signal"
VersionNumber = "6,0,79,0"
LocaleID = "NO"

Should i make the new one like:

[strings]
productname="Shockwave Flash"
GUID = "{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000}"
GUIDFACT = "{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000}"
DefaultName = "Macromedia Shockwave Flash"
ComponentID = "Midlertidig ledig-signal"
VersionNumber = "7,0,19,0"
LocaleID = "NO"

?

Yes, assuming that 7,0,19,0 is indeed the version of the .OCX file.

EDIT: It is the correct version. Hope that is the latest one
