Being your first post nobody will hold it against you, but if you do a search (or try common switches), you will find most of these.

Hi, and welcome!

Trying the common switches first would be helpful. That will save time for you, as otherwise waiting for a response can take many hours (or even days).

For "cpuidle extreme", the switch to use is just plain "/S" (note the capital S). I don't know of the others, since I don't use them. But some common switches are:

/S
/s
/silent
/QB
/S /v/qn
/VERYSILENT /SP-
/verysilent

and so on....

Some apps have just a name-sake installer. In such cases, you can just copy away the installed files, copy them back (using batch-files) during unattended setup, and they work fine.

What are switches used for?

Can I silently install programs without a switch?

Can I use the same switch for all the programs?

Hey,

A silent switch is used so it tells the program not to accept any input from the user, where as with out the switch (/S, /QN, etc) it will ask you to input details like where do you wish to store the inforamtion,

Most installs have a common switch Like MSI = /QN, but there us a usefull guide here: http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/applications.htm When you get there just use the menu at the top and then select application, and ull see a list of common applications, as well as common install packages at the bottom, But also at the top of the thread is MY Switches, i do recommend checking that out as it normally helps most thigs out.
