Is there any reason I cant do this?


Recommended Posts

Been messing around with my unattended install DVD and was wondering if the following would be possible:

1. Using Virtual PC to set up an installation using my standard Slipstreamed disc.

2. Install 'Installrite' on the virtual PC

3. INstall all the Apps (and register them) that I use on the virtual PC using installrite to export each registry change when each program is installed.

4. Copy all the new prog directories to $OEM$\$Progs and any changes (like codecs etc) to $OEM$\$$

5. Put all the registry changes in a single .reg file to be called upon installation.

Surely then, my new installation will have all the programs I need up and running without having to find the switches for silent installations.

about registry keys recorded, most of them will be stored on HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-... that it's random key different for every installation so becareful, you'll have to convert them to HKCU keys

Is that just a case of changing the HKU to HKCU and removing the randon string?
