CoffeeFiend Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 Use the .msi files instead. Faster and works flawlessly. (and from CD or DVD... doesn't matter, it's the same deal) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoardBabe Posted October 11, 2004 Author Share Posted October 11, 2004 I tried to use the .msi and files that is extraced to %windir%\cache when launching the exe in first post, but this also failed the same way. Can you give me a code example? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoardBabe Posted October 11, 2004 Author Share Posted October 11, 2004 Ooops yeah i was missing that slash.Does this work for you installing from the CDROM without copying to HDD ($1\Install) ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeFiend Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 I tried to use the .msi and files that is extraced to %windir%\cache when launching the exe in first post, but this also failed the same way. Can you give me a code example?That's the right place to get the files. Make sure you keep all you need, not just the msi files.Syntax wise, it's like every other msi package, I use:"%CDROM%\install\AReader 6\Adobe Reader 6.0.1.msi" /QB"%CDROM%\install\AReader 6\602update.msi" /QBAnd it's never failed so far. (then I got a vbscript to tweak the install) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanVM Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 If you're using the English version, here's a switchless installer for 6.0.2 (only 15MB too):http://www.ryanvm.net/msfn/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoffeeFiend Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 It extracts to your temp folder. Most likely: C:\Document And Settings\Current_User_Name\Local Settings\Temp(or whatever that turns out to be in norwegian) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
