danielvh Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 (edited) OK: Fixed all my problems (thanks to all those that have helped) except for Windows Defender.Basically it says that I need to activate windows before installing it and I don't want to preactivate the cd, so was wondering if anyone had a workaround?ThanksDaniel Edited August 27, 2006 by danielvh
MAVERICKS CHOICE Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 Try these but I don't know your time code for Perth.[TapiLocation] CountryCode=61 Dialing=Tone[RegionalSettings] LanguageGroup=1 SystemLocale=00000c09 UserLocale=00000c09 InputLocale=0c09:00000409Your better off using the tool that comes with your xp disc that helps you automate the winnt.sif & use that as your base.CheersMC.
danielvh Posted August 27, 2006 Author Posted August 27, 2006 OK, fixed all the problems except for:1) I can't get Windows Defender to install without auto-activating first which I do not want to do. Is this impossible?2) A screen comes up at the beginning of install asking me to click next to continue install despite me choosing fullunattended in winnt.3) I need the timezone code for GMT+8 (perth)Can anyone help me?ThanksDaniel
danielvh Posted August 27, 2006 Author Posted August 27, 2006 OK, fixed problem #2 from above.Just 1 and 3 left. Basically how do I install windows defender without preactivating (if it is at all possible) and what is the timezone code for GMT+8 (perth). Could someone just have a quick look in the ref file of microsoft developer tools for me.ThanksDaniel
danielvh Posted August 27, 2006 Author Posted August 27, 2006 Tiemzone for Perth = TimeZone=225Awesome! Thanks mate.Just the Windows Defender problem to go.
RogueSpear Posted August 27, 2006 Posted August 27, 2006 You need to modify the .msi file and remove a few custom actions. Once you're in there looking at it, they should be obvious. But even after you do that it still won't install from svcpack.inf. When Microsoft first but out Beta 2, I was able to hack it enough so that it would install from svcpack. Then they released a refresh build of Beta 2 and I was unable to get it to install from svcpack.
mc134 Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 (edited) Download Windows DefenderDownload Orca.msi (Search Google)[ORCA is part of Windows Server 2003 SP1 Platform SDK]Create a Administrative installation by running msiexec /A "c:\temp\WindowsDefender.msi" then it will ask where to put the files, I use c:\temp\DefenderNow open new WindowsDefender.msi (ex. c:\temp\Defender\WindowsDefender.msi) in ORCA editorYou have to delete several entries:CustomAction - CHECK_WGACustomAction - OtherWGAErrorCustomAction - OpenURLCustomAction - LAUNCH_MY_PROGRAM_PLEASEInstallExecuteSequence - CHECK_WGAInstallExecuteSequence - OtherWGAErrorInstallExecuteSequence - LAUNCH_MY_PROGRAM_PLEASEand you MUST set this:Property - LAUNCHPROGRAM = 0Property - AgreeToLicense = YesNow you should be able to install Defender unattended without errors.
