macroy Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Hi.Have tried to find faq, how to do, forums...about Installing media player 10 with the svcpack.inf file. But all that I have tried have failed so far.Have anyone succesfully installed the MP10 with a unattended ris installation. And if so how did you do... plz help starting to getting very frustrated about this.... The standard syntax seems to be like this:MP10Setup.exe /q:A /c:setup_wm.exe /Q /R:N /DisallowSystemRestoreMP10Setup.exe /Q:A /R:N /C:"setup_wm.exe /DisallowSystemRestore /Q:A /R:N"MP10Setup.exe /q:A /c:"setup_wm.exe /Q /R:N /DisallowSystemRestore"etc.....but all stop with the dialog window that complains about System Restore....

Gee Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 I spent a good few days and many CDs trying to get it to work. In the end, I just installed it and the updates to Media Player in RunOnceEx.It was the only way around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macroy Posted June 28, 2006 Author Share Posted June 28, 2006 Can you show me how you wrote in RunOnceEx to get the installation to work.Where do you write this RuneOnce... is it the same as [GuiRunOnce] in the sif file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the two updates will work also.Are the outside set of quotes really needed? Edited June 30, 2006 by Gee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oioldman Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Are the outside set of quotes really needed?i believe so, because it works with them. try without and see what happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macroy Posted June 30, 2006 Author Share Posted June 30, 2006 It didn't worked for me without the ouside quotes. Tnx Gee for the RunOnceEx.cmd info also. May need it to install the NET Framework 2.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gee Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 Well, I don't know how you guys managed to get it to work. I tried with the quotes and still no go.I cannot install it at T13 or T12 (using cmdlines.txt), I can only managed to get it to work after a reboot using RunOnceEx.So, I am back where I started. Ah, well, I am glad it worked for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same results. The version that Microsoft currently posted on their site is slightly bigger.The .Net 2.0 is interesting. I am going to give it a try and see how it works. However, I am going to use a switchless version that has all the extra languages removed. The redistribute from Microsoft is 24 Megs, remove all the languages and recompress with 7zip, you can save 8 Megs (33%). Big difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
