Unattended Setup Problems at T-12

**Dyne** · November 9, 2004

Hey Guys, I'm having a bit of trouble with my XP Unattended CD, so I figured I would tap the resources of the forum

I'm using RunOnceEx to run all my apps, but at the T-12 Mark, My computer just stops doing anything...

Another Problem, but less important is that I can not run a setup that uses the installshield without running my iTouch Drivers EXE which seems to "repair" it to some extent...

All the scripts execute, but I can not see a thing about what is going on in the VM

Here are the files I am using...

cmdlines.txt

**BritishBulldog** · November 9, 2004

there are things missing on soem of these such as the /f at the end. ALL lines must finish with this.

You are also using the same Key numbers eg. iTouch and Audigy using 002

Plus further down winamp uses the 4 twice.

in front of some of your %systemdrive% are backslashes they need to be removed too

The backslashes are there because of the Space in the File, so I need them, but I added the /f to the rest of the files, and I am testing in VPC now

**twrizzo** · November 10, 2004

Dude,

You cant put a backslash in fron of %systemdrive%.

Test it by opening Start>Run and typing in both "\%systemdrive%" and "%systemdrive%"

You will get an error message when you use the one with the backslash.

If your password is longer than 14 characters, net user will prompt you with a warning. This may be stalling your installation at T-12; if your password is longer than 14 characters.

Dude,
You cant put a backslash in fron of %systemdrive%.
Test it by opening Start>Run and typing in both "\%systemdrive%" and "%systemdrive%"
You will get an error message when you use the one with the backslash.

The extra backslashes are necessary when you need quotation marks to be written as a part of the path. This is the case when the path includes spaces.

dude, understand before saying they're wrong.

"\%systemdrive%" indeed does NOT work, HOWEVER

he has "\"%systemdrive the \" escapes the quote so that it is imported into the registry properly, because ""%systemdrive%\Program Files\setup" /qb" does NOT work.

if SmokingGun's thing doesn't work, remove the cmdow @ /hid at teh beginning and retest. You probally have a prompt somewhere waiting for a response (missing /f perhaps_)

**jrzycrim** · November 10, 2004

Sorry alanoll, I didn't mean to step on your toes.

**Dyne** · November 10, 2004

Thanks for your help guys, I finally have the freeze at T-12 eliminated, but I still wonder why InstallShield doesn't work unless I run the iTouch Driver Install to "repair" it
