Judas989 Posted September 25, 2003 Posted September 25, 2003 Hey everyone, my first time creating an unattended installation and everything has gone fairly painlessly until now. I load my .ISO in Virtual PC and I get the error (after I boot from CD)"Line 29 of the INF file \i386\winnt.sif is invalid. Setup cannot continue. Press any key to restart."I've checked the code over in the .sif file and I can't find anything that would be causing this error, besides a few misspellings which I corrected.Here's my code.;SetupMgrTag[Data]Autopartition=0MsDosInitiated="0"UnattendedInstall="Yes"[unattended]UnattendMode=FullUnattendedOemSkipEulA=YesOemPreinstall=YesTargetPath=\WINDOWSRepartition=NoUnattendswitch="Yes"WaitForReboot="No"OemPnPDriversPath=Drivers\Nvidia\;Drivers\creative\Drivers\WIN2K_XP\;Drivers\soyo\audio\;drivers\soyo\raid\;Drivers\soyo\nic\WINXP\;Drivers\soyo\agp\R112_Logo\AGP\WINXP\;drivers\soyo\agp\R112_Logo\USB\Win2K_XP\;drivers\logitech\keyboard\Win2K_XP\;drivers\logitech\mouse\Win2K_XP\DriverSigningPolicy=IgnoreAutoActivate=No[GuiUnattended]OEMSkipRegional=TimeZone=35OemSkipWelcome=1ProfilesDir="%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\"[userData]FullName=Judas ReinhardtOrgName=MJ12ComputerName=DATAWRAITH[Display]BitsPerPel=32XResolution=1280YResolution=1024Vrefresh=85[TapiLocation]CountryCode=1Dialing=Tone[RegionalSettings]LanguageGroup=1Language=00000809[identification]JoinWorkgroup=WORKGROUP[Networking]InstallDefaultComponents=No[NetAdapters] Adapter1=params.Adapter1[params.Adapter1] INFID=*[NetClients] MS_MSClient=params.MS_MSClient[NetServices] MS_SERVER=params.MS_SERVER[NetProtocols] MS_TCPIP=params.MS_TCPIP MS_NWIPX=params.MS_NWIPX[params.MS_TCPIP] DNS=Yes UseDomainNameDevolution=No EnableLMHosts=Yes AdapterSections=params.MS_TCPIP.Adapter1[params.MS_TCPIP.Adapter1] SpecificTo=Adapter1 DHCP=Yes WINS=No NetBIOSOptions=0[params.MS_NWIPX] VirtualNetworkNumber=00000000 AdapterSections=params.MS_NWIPX.Adapter1[params.MS_NWIPX.Adapter1] SpecificTo=Adapter1 PktType=0xFF NetworkNumber=00000000[Components]msmsgs=offmsnexplr=offmedia_clips=offmedia_utopia=offAccessopt=offAutoUpdate=offtemplates=offfax=offClipbook=offhypertrm=offrec=offpinball=offfreecell=offminesweeper=offsolitaire=offspider=offhearts=offzonegames=off[shell]DefaultThemesOff=Yes[GUIRunOnce]%systemdrive%\install\main_batch.cmd%systemdrive%\install\hotfixes.cmd%systemdrive%\install\applications.cmdAny and all oppinions will be greatly appreciated.
b0r3d Posted September 25, 2003 Posted September 25, 2003 Just from briefly looking over it, i noticed that you dont have a value for OEMSkipRegional
Judas989 Posted September 25, 2003 Author Posted September 25, 2003 I will try that right now, Bor3d, and get back to you ASAP. Thanks for the quick input!
Judas989 Posted September 25, 2003 Author Posted September 25, 2003 =( Nope, still gives me the same error.
b0r3d Posted September 25, 2003 Posted September 25, 2003 Try adding quotes around your Full name and orginisation name.
Judas989 Posted September 25, 2003 Author Posted September 25, 2003 Sweeeeeet. It seems to work now. Thanks very much for your help, b0r3d.
Judas989 Posted September 25, 2003 Author Posted September 25, 2003 Ok, now it installs fine but it doesn't copy over my batch files nor my reg file. Hmm... man I'm tired, I'll work more on this later today.
Paul 365 Posted September 25, 2003 Posted September 25, 2003 Your missing the command=0=[GuiRunOnce] Command0="%systemdrive%\install\main_batch.cmd"I have never used more than one command here so i am only guessing that the the next lines should be command1 and command2.
Judas989 Posted September 26, 2003 Author Posted September 26, 2003 Yeah, it works now, forgot I had to have the batch files in the install dir.Again, thanks for everyone's help.
Judas989 Posted September 26, 2003 Author Posted September 26, 2003 Wait, ok, now I have another very tiny problem. I reg-hacked (using someone elses) my system and I have it tweaked the way I want it except for one thing: every shortcut is displayed as "*.lnk" and it's really annoying. I much rather just see the shortcut overlay (which I do).Anyone know which reg setting this is so I can delete it? I would post my reg file but it's hella-long (20kb, to be exact). Is this to big? LOLEDIT: I also have a problem with my desktop being stuck in the "Center" position and it's grayed out so I cannot change it. Again, I have no idea which reg setting this is. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.EDIT: Ok, ok, last thing, promise. I'm trying to find a reg hack that disables all Windows system sounds.
