snag Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 Since you can't do an administrative install, is it possible to do this? I was kind of hoping to be able to deploy customer systems just THIS |----| much faster. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
straffin Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Nope. Slipstreaming is only possible with the Enterprise version of the Office System 2003. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaceMouth Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 (edited) I have an academic version. The single disk with word, excel, etc.. It's got the 30 day trial wrtten all over it.I used this guide unattend no admin install everything worked fine, well almost. I slipstreamed sp2 and created a silent install. When I tried the silent install it would just roll back without any message. I then tried a silent install of just office2k3 on my installed windows and created a log file for the install. I couldn't make much out of the log file though, I don't have enough knowledge yet. I think my problem was in one of the .msi files or I messed up when I created the mst file-- basically changed something I shouldn't have (If you follow the guides you will understand what I mean).Here is how I created mine:1. followed guide from link given above to create slipstreamed sp22. followed msfn guide to create silent installIf you search this forum, there is a thread about hacking an msi file to enable admin install (The person who psoted this warns about breaking the EULA), I don't have time to find it now, there is another for performing the silent install and creating a log file. Lastly I should add, I was able to manually install the slipstreamed version...for what it's worth. Edited October 25, 2005 by FaceMouth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
