Alcohol Shuts down my PC?

**Ctwizzy** · April 19, 2005

For some reason everytime Alcohol installs silently, I get this pop-up about windows shutting itself down.

im not 100% sure its Alcohol, but it only ever happens when I install Alcohol.

It says this: Shutdown was initiated by NT Authority\System, and shuts down in a minute.

%cdrom%\Software\alcohol\setup.msi /QN REBOOT=REALLYSUPPRESS

I also have a reg file. I dont understand why its shutting me down tho.

Any ideas?

That is Shutdown.exe calling the shutdown, not Alcohol.

Should use:

start /wait msiexec /i setup.exe /qn /norestart

Ok ive tried everything now, this is what im currently using:

%cdrom%\Software\Alcohol\1952802\setup.exe /QN /norestart

still shuts down. Its starting to really annoy me now.

If anyone else knows how to stop this please let me know.

Oh, I made a typo. Should be .msi. Use the start /wait.

Should be:

%cdrom%\Software\Alcohol\1952802\start /wait msiexec /i setup.msi /QN /norestart

Im using WPI so should I put this:

start /wait msiexec.exe /i %cdrom%\Software\Alcohol\1952802\setup.msi /qn /norestart

CODE IS right's

cmd1[pn]=['%cdrom%\\Install\\Alcohol120\\setup.msi /qn Reboot=Suppress']

cmd2[pn]=['REGEDIT /S %cdrom%\\Install\\Alcohol120\\alcohol.reg']

no matter what I do that code always boots down, ive tried near on 8 ways. So I guess ill try an autoit.

Success

You will find this works

['%systemdrive%\\Install\\Alcohol120%\\setup.msi /quiet Reboot=Suppress']
