is there a way to integrate DX9c into a windows XP home service pack 1a installation CD? w/o using the guirunonce command or an $OEM$ folder

ive been here:

http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...grating+directx

and here:

http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/applications/directx.htm

but i can't find the svcpack.inf they talk about, and ive already integrated the hotfixes and drivers w/ nLite

i'm confident i can install it using the guirunonce but Id much rather have it integrated into the system

note: i am not installing sp2 ... all the problems i ever hear from support forums nowadays begin w/ "Ever since I installed service pack 2 ..."

if you do not have a svcpack.inf file, make sure you don't ahve a svcpack.in_ in your I386 folder after nLite. If so, simply EXPAND svcpack.in_ back to svcpack.inf and open in notepad and add to it, then MAKECAB svcpack.inf . Otherwise (I'm sure you have a svcpack.inf if you've used nLite for hotfixes) just simply create the file yourself. Open in notepad, add the required sections and save it.

And as a side note, this is more of an ADDING to the CD, and not an Integrating. Integrating/Slipsteaming would be replacing the orignal files with the updated ones.

thnx for your help B)

so i should put dx90csilent.EXE into this folder C:\XPCD\I386\SvcPack ... or should it be the extracted version before I put it through iexpress.exe? or the original "unsilent" version?

then modify the srvpack.inf like so:

[SetupHotfixesToRun]
KB841873.exe /q /n /z
KB840315.exe /q /n /z
dx90csilent.EXE

im thinking it might need a switch or two
