last thing to complete my unattend, please help!

Hey guys. I've nearly got my disc fully automated, but there's one thing that still prompts for user input: the MDAC Security hotfix (Q823718_MDAC_SecurityPatch.exe)

this is how it looks in my main_batch file:

ECHO Installing MDAC Security Hotfix
ECHO Please Wait...
start /wait %systemdrive%\install\hotfixes2\Q823718_MDAC_SecurityPatch.exe /Q:A /R:N

any suggestions to prevent it from prompting before installing and also asking if i want to restart?

thanks

Lee

ECHO.

Hi,

Instead of applying that hotfix you can install MDAC 2.8 with the following syntax :

MDAC_TYP.EXE /q:a /c:"dasetup.exe /q /n"

thanking you very much!
