chazco Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I just made my first unattended xp install cd. Everything goes okay until I get to the 'Installing Applications' part. The list displays all the programs I specified in RunOnceEx.cmd but when they are reached all I get is the message: 'Windows cannot find C:\install\whatever. I am running the Microsoft Virutal PC.My RunOnceEx.cmd:cmdow @ /HID@echo offSET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceExREG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "CHAZCO Recovery Disc" /fREG ADD %KEY%\005 /VE /D "SyncBack" /fREG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\SyncBack\setup.exe /VERYSILENT" /fREG ADD %KEY%\010 /VE /D "Fresh Download" /fREG ADD %KEY%\010 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\FreshDownload\setup.exe /VERYSILENT" /fREG ADD %KEY%\015 /VE /D "Paint Shop Pro" /fREG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PaintShop\Paint Shop Pro 7.msi /qn REBOOT=Suppress" /fREG ADD %KEY%\020 /VE /D "Dreamweaver (Manual)" /fREG ADD %KEY%\020 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Dreamweaver\setup.exe" /fREG ADD %KEY%\022 /VE /D "FTP Surfer (Manual)" /fREG ADD %KEY%\022 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\FTPSurfer\setup.exe" /fREG ADD %KEY%\025 /VE /D "Nero Burning ROM 6" /fREG ADD %KEY%\025 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Nero\Setup.exe /silent /noreboot" /fREG ADD %KEY%\030 /VE /D "TugZip FreeWare" /fREG ADD %KEY%\030 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\TugZip\setup.exe /VERYSILENT" /fREG ADD %KEY%\035 /VE /D "Office XP" /fREG ADD %KEY%\035 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\OfficeXP\PROPLUS.msi /QB" /fEXITMy Winnt.sif;SetupMgrTag[Data] AutoPartition=1 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes"[Unattended] UnattendMode=ProvideDefault OemPreinstall=Yes UnattendSwitch="yes" TargetPath=\WINDOWS OemSkipEula=Yes[GuiUnattended] EncryptedAdminPassword=NO OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=85[UserData] ProductKey=***** FullName="Charles Gunther Hague" OrgName="CHAZCO Enterprises LTD" ComputerName=cgh[Display] BitsPerPel=32 Xresolution=1024 YResolution=768 Vrefresh=75[TapiLocation] CountryCode=44 Dialing=Tone AreaCode=0114[RegionalSettings] LanguageGroup=1 Language=00000809[Identification] JoinWorkgroup=CHAZCO[Networking] InstallDefaultComponents=No[NetAdapters] Adapter1=params.Adapter1[params.Adapter1] INFID=*[NetClients] MS_MSClient=params.MS_MSClient[NetServices] MS_SERVER=params.MS_SERVER[NetProtocols] MS_TCPIP=params.MS_TCPIP[params.MS_TCPIP] DNS=No UseDomainNameDevolution=No EnableLMHosts=Yes AdapterSections=params.MS_TCPIP.Adapter1[params.MS_TCPIP.Adapter1] SpecificTo=Adapter1 DHCP=No IPAddress=10.0.0.1 SubnetMask=255.255.255.0 DefaultGateway=10.0.0.2 WINS=No NetBIOSOptions=0Everything else works - autoanswer, addusers.

jondercik Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Is the install folder under $1\Install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chazco Posted April 5, 2005 Author Share Posted April 5, 2005 Yes the folder was $1\Install. However, my brother just found out something that makes it work. For some reason, when Norton Worm Protection is shut down on the actual PC the Virutal PC installs perfectly. Any ideas why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diesel_98a Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 (edited) does each app have its own folder??? have u tried combining them into just one folder? might try straightening up the number going:001002003004 instead of the 005010015020022025just a start anyway to clean it up a bit...........also try this: [unattended] UnattendMode = FullUnattended Edited April 6, 2005 by diesel_98a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjhart85 Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 Its listed on the MSFN unattended site that you should go by incriments of 5, so you can add programs to your disc w/o having to renumber everything.As for the programs not working well together, well, they must just glitch each other. Not really that big of a deal is it? You can just get off the web while your testing your disc and you won't be in any danger (correct me if i'm wrong). Personally, I don't bother with sims, I just load the disc and see if it works, but I guess I'm crazy that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diesel_98a Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 i guess that would just be personal preference, i keep it cleaned up enough that it only takes 1-2mins (if that) to renumber all 23 items....but that is not much to me........what about the:[unattended]UnattendMode = FullUnattended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
