integration options

[slawekj]

Hi,

i making my next unattended xp installation and i need your help:

1. how set wallpaper?

2. how set another theme with hacked uxtheme?

3. how set vista sounds theme (maybe http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=71604 ) ?

4. when integrates dotnet 1 and 2 (hfslip, nlite, runonce or svcpack)??

thanks a lot

Wallpaper:

Reg file:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
"Wallpaper"="blah:\\blah\\blah\\blah.jpg"

And of course, replace blah with the actual location.

Theme and UXTheme.dll:

Use the uxtheme.dll patch in nLite.

Custom theme: MSFN Unsttended guide

I could explain it a lot quicker here but I can't be bothered.

Vista Sounds:

Make an SFX to xtract the files to %systemroot%\Media overwriting all files.

Make a batch file or something that says something like:

regedit /S %path%\vistasounds.reg

Or you can put it in the $OEM$\$$\system32\Media folder and set the regfile in a batch or something, see above.

Or use the English MSI and put it in your GuiRunOnce or something as x.msi /qn /norestart

.NET Framework:

Use Ryan's switchless installers here. I personally use Runonceex on them.

You can always xtract the sfx if you want the /qn switch instead of /qb. When making the sfx, on 1.1, you set netfx.msi /qn as the command to execute upon extraction, and on 2.0, it must be install.exe /qn

Isn't it fun playing around with text size and formatting options?
