WPI not loading

[hakeem5454]

i tryed adding wpi and just a couple apps ust to see if it worked or not and it doesnt even load. I hope im not posting this again, but i couldnt find anything. i deleted all the runonceex files etc., and i took all the programs and put them into C:\XPCD\Install, and added that [Guirunonce] part in my winnt file and put the WPI folder in C:\XPCD\$oem%\$1\Install. When i tryed it in VM it still ran the normal runonceex look it didnt load into wpi.

C:\XPCD\$oem%\$1\Install

That don't look right!

Post your winnt and I will take a look at it. Have you made a working unattended install win cd?

You you want the files to install from you cd or your hard drive? do you want wpi to run from your cd or your hard drive?

ok you file is fine. what is the layout of your folders?

from win cd root to wpi folder?

[hakeem5454]

what do you mean?

my wpi folder is in(C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\Install\WPI)

and my software is located in (C:\XPCD\Software)

do i have to modify any other file like cmdlines.txt or something?

Try this:

Move wpi from:

(C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\Install\WPI)

Move wpi to:

(C:\XPCD\WPI) - Let it run from the cd.

now make a copy of (wpi.cmd) and put it into:

(C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\Install)

Open the WPI.CMD for edit:

Find this line:

REM Determine the WPI startup path.
REM if wpi should run off the cd the replace %~dp0 with %cdrom%.

Make the next line after that read:

set WPIPATH=%CDROM%\wpi\

Save and close.

Now open up (winnt.sif)

Find this line:

[GuiRunOnce]
    %systemdrive%\install\wpi\wpi.cmd

change it to read:

[GuiRunOnce]
    %systemdrive%\install\wpi.cmd

Save, close, test

Let me know it that helps.
