A Little Question :)

[Akodo]

Forgive me if this question has been asked a thousand times but i can't figure it out :/

I'm trying to make an unattended win2000 sp4 disk and i have a question

For this particular hotfix (KB873374) i can't seem to figure out what the part

import this registry setting instead:

REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\GdiDetectionTool" /v "GDITool" /t REG_DWORD /d "00000001" /f

actually means.

Forgive me but i'm quite a newcomer to computers

I'm using the svcpack.inf method

If someone could help me with, i'd be grateful.

Thx in advance

this adds 'GDITool=1' value in 'HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\GdiDetectionTool' Key in the registry.

With this Windows Update will not ask to install the KB873374 hotfix

Ok thx a lot for the fast answer

so if i understand correctly it's not necessary to put the KB873374.exe /Q:A /R:N in the svcpack.inf if i use that command instead ?

yes
