$OEM$\$1 Files Copies

[Badforyou2000]

I was wondering if there was a way to copy the files to a different partition or 2nd Hard drive when Win XP is copying the files to the system drive at the start of setup. I was thinking if you put the files under $OEM$\$2, would this copy the files to a different partition during the Win XP setup installation?

Sorry, but you can't. $1 is the partition that you are installing Windows to and $$ is X:\Windows where as X:\ is where Windows is being installed. Even though I am a programmer, I don't have the time to write a application that copys all your stuff. You could use one of the programs that copy other progams in the unattended CD/DVD Guide to copy it. The programs are located in the Advanced Section of the guide.

Hope I was any help to you.

If you name the second drive say D: you can create a folder called D under the $OEM$ folder ($OEM$\D) and put the files in there that you want to copy or install and it will work.

You can nest folders under D as well.

Good luck.
