May 29, 200620 yr Does anyone know how to make Office 2007 Beta 2 work in an unattended install? I know it's easy in Beta1TR, but B2 seems to need Windows Installer 3.1 installed to install, ive tried silent Install of WI, then silent install of O2k7, but that doesn't work, after reboot it does though, so Im guessing that's the problem?
May 29, 200620 yr for windows installer just use this switches /Q /O /Zfor office, have you read the topic that someone posted with instructions to edit an xml file? search for it.
May 29, 200620 yr Author "ive tried silent Install of WI, then silent install of O2k7, but that doesn't work, after reboot it does though".Yes, I know, I've done both, but it O2k7B2 needs Windows Installer 3.1 installed, Windows installer 3.1 needs the pc restarted before using...
May 29, 200620 yr Have you tried method mentioned by prathapmlUsing this method you can make an ans file and install office silently
May 29, 200620 yr Author Yeah, but when i set it to a basic display without Windows Installer 3.1 installed it demands I install WI3.1 before it, then it says an answerfile could not be found or no patches were included in it, or something like that once I make it silently install WI3.1 before Office 2007B2.I've tried both of prathapml's methods, I really don't think there's a problem with how I am doing the Office 2007 install, can someone explain how it would be possible to install Windows Installer 3.1 then Office 2007 BETA 2, prefferably with experience?
May 29, 200620 yr use this switches /Q /O /Z for windows installer 3.1 and install it from svcpack.infthis is how i install it everytime.
