erik_demon Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 (edited) @hp38guserThanks for the Autoit script.I do have a question about it though:Somewhere in your script you use:ProcessSetPriority ( "setup.exe", 0)Now my question is: the "0" what exactly is it. Does it mean that windows setup will be frozen for some time (till you set the value back to 2) or is windows setup just slowed down.?I ask this question because it takes quite some time to run SetupCopyOEMInf.exe (well not extremely much, but it still takes some time )EDITfew more questions, the arguments that you use in your winnt.sif...[GuiUnattended] DetachedProgram=autoit3.exe Arguments="%systemroot%\System32\presetup.au3"At that moment Autoit is not installed yet, how does it work, where do I have to place autoit3.exe (system32 folder?) and why not compile presetup.au3 to presetup.exe?Thanks Edited June 10, 2005 by erik_demon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because DeatchedPrograms is run parallel to the Windows Setup it makes no sense to use a start /wait command.I have AutoIt3.exe and presetup.au3 placed in $OEM$\$$\System32. You can compile presetup.au3 to presetup.exe, however if you use a lot of scripts, it saves some of space on your cd, example: 20 scripts x 100 KB is 2 MB.

Bilou_Gateux Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I've posted an autoIt script in Schalti's thread about it:http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=43795&st=50#<{POST_SNAPBACK}>The best method so far. Try it!Drivers From CD (AutoIt Method), A newer, better way. =)and you can get help from the author: hp38guser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
