vtol Posted July 26, 2003 Share Posted July 26, 2003 Hi @ all,I have been going though the steps described in this excellent and precise guide, however failed to burn the data onto cd as Roxio does not permit $OEM$ as folder name, insteads suggests to flat it to _OEM_, which perhaps would destroy all the efforts. Anyone a clue on this?Cheers,Kai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted July 26, 2003 Share Posted July 26, 2003 Hmmm... I noticed that you can recognize installshiel setup by the text on the start and I tried -R to two of those. Neither one didn't make setup.iss to the C:\WINDOWS. Where's the problem, or how can I recognize those setup types if those aren't installshields even it reads on the start? :/Which 2 applications were they? I will try them out for you.Coming up on the site later:Adobe Reader 6.0ZoneAlarm Free 3.7Norton AV 2003DivX 5.0.5AIM 5.2Sun Java VM 1.4.1Nero 6and maybe WinRAR 3.20 (need to do another test just to be sure about something)No go: Trillian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ogre Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 Just thought i'd add something:While doing all this, I looked into what Services Windows starts automatically. Depending on what you do with your machine (i.e. gaming), you can disable quite a few of these services to free up system resources. I takes some time to figure out what services you may want to disable, but once you know what you want to turn off, you can creat a second .reg file (I called mine KillServices.reg). Simply locate the services in Regedit by using the find command (they are located in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\), disable the service, and copy the registry key to a text file.My file looks like this:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00;Disable Messenger Service (to block spam.

some Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 Which 2 applications were they? I will try them out for you.Uhm, I figured out the problem You needed to extract those packages first and then run the setup.exe with -R flag. Sorry for bothering such a easy thing but that just didn't come to my mind. This idea just came to my head suddenly and now those setups worked fine.You need to install mouseware by this way.

some Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 Does unattended install create your account ready for computer also? Or do you have to create it afterwards?If install creates the account you can add your quicklaunch shortcuts also If it's possible with the account issue?Does anyone know silent installation for powerstrip? It ain't installshield and /S flag doesn't help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 You can create an account at the Welcome to Windows XP screen (this is in-between WinXP setup and the batch). Then it will log you in with the username created and run the batch.To enable Welcome to Windows XP, this value should be used in [unattended]: UnattendSwitch="no"If you use Yes, then it will skip that part and use the default Admin account instead.I know the in-between bit is a bit of a stop gap and defeats the whole point of it being unattended, but I'm still looking into ways of getting it to create my own user account and run the batch once its logged in.
