trm96 Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 What I want to do is install Plus! DME but i only want to install certain components of it and do it silently. How do I go about doing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prathapml Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 Plus! DME uses MSI installer. So the "/QB" switch will work.As for selecting which components you want to install, you could probably do that by creating an MST file (MSI transform, just like how you do it for office2003).

trm96 Posted December 11, 2004 Author Share Posted December 11, 2004 Thanks prathapml, but I got a program for Office 2003 to make an MST but where do I find a program to make an MST for DME? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 I believe there's only one program to make a MST, and that's the one for Office. So try using that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trm96 Posted December 12, 2004 Author Share Posted December 12, 2004 ok Tsunami, I will try it...I cannot get it to work. I tryed it the same way as i did for office %systemdrive%\install\apps\DME\setup.exe transforms=%systemdrive%\install\apps\DME\dme.mst /qn but it did not work.

jamesagmoore Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 You can make a MST file for any MSI installer using the Wise Package Studio. Maybe you can download the demo version and try it. The specific tool inside WPS is called Install Tailor IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prathapml Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Try%systemdrive%\install\apps\DME\setup.exe TRANSFORMS=dme.mst /qnOr if that doesn't work, use the MSI file, like below:msiexec /i %systemdrive%\install\apps\DME\filename.MSI TRANSFORMS=dme.mst /qn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trm96 Posted December 12, 2004 Author Share Posted December 12, 2004 Try%systemdrive%\install\apps\DME\setup.exe TRANSFORMS=dme.mst /qnOr if that doesn't work, use the MSI file, like below:msiexec /i %systemdrive%\install\apps\DME\filename.MSI TRANSFORMS=dme.mst /qnok Will do. I will report back with the results...Well it does install DME silently, but it installed all of the apps included in DME not just the ones i specified whilst making the mst. What really want it to install is just Party mode and nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjhart85 Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Create an AUTOIT script. It'll install exactly what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trm96 Posted December 13, 2004 Author Share Posted December 13, 2004 Can I install it via an inf file. If so how would i call it in my batch file and what lines would I have to delete to have it just install "party mode"? I have attached a copy of the inf file...PLUSOC.rar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
