how to with XP SP2

[jonas_sth]

Hi all,

How should i setup so XPlode.exe to run together with XP installation?

$OEM$\$1\Install\XPlode

This is my location of the folder and files but how should i execute.

Use any command from winnt.sif or use cmdlines.txt

I have tray and can see that something is flashing but nothing happen...

Thanks for all help

i put xplode in {CD}\Install\Xplode

cmdlines.txt (which goes in $OEM$

[COMMANDS]
"..\Install\Xplode\Xplode.exe"

[jonas_sth]

do you not need to add \Install\Xplode\Xplode.xml after

no you dont need to as long as the XPlode.xml is in the same directory as the XPlode.exe.

I have tray and can see that something is flashing but nothing happen...

are you sure that your xml works? Try clicking on it with the right mouse button and then 'open with - Internet Explorer' If everything is ok you will get your listing up if not then an error message is seen

I also have XPlode in an install directory in the root of my CDROM, this way it is not copied over to the harddrive.

mine is called up throught the cmdlines.txt

[COMMANDS]
"RunOnceEx.cmd"

and is in the RunOnceEx.cmd

cmdow @ /HID
@echo off

FOR %%d IN (D: E: F: G: H: I: J: K: L: M: N: O: P: Q: R: S: T: U: V: W: X: Y: Z:) DO IF EXIST %%d\CD.TXT SET CDROM=%%d

SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx

REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "Installing Applications" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\001 /VE /D "Preparing Installation..." /f
REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\install\XPLode\XPLode.exe log:"#systemdrive#\XPlode.log" /f
EXIT

directory structure is as follows

%CDROM%
|    |
|    ---cd.txt
|
---$OEM$
|    |
|    ---cmdlines.txt
|    |
|    ---RunOnceEx.cmd
|
---Install
        |
        ---XPLode
        |      |
        |      ---XPlode.exe
        |      |
        |      ---XPlode.xml
        |
        ---Acrobat
        |
        ---WinAmp

which means it is started after first logon
