Hi,

look at my script at http://board.MSFN.org/index.php?showtopic=8987 for POWERDVD5.

It isn't really silent, but you install unattended.

Silent with registry patch is too difficult, because of so many entries and modifications to handle CDs.

Sygate...i don't know.

If you ran PowerDVD with the -R switch, the setup.iss file that was created should have the serial number in it.

ECHO.
ECHO Installing Cyberlink PowerDVD 5.0
ECHO Please wait...
start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\PowerDVD5\Setup.exe -s %systemdrive%\install\Applications\PowerDVD5\setup.iss

Here is my setup.iss code:

yep i run the -R switch but in PowerDVD 6 it automatlically reboots so the setup.iss is gone

[Yazoo]

Try putting BootOption=00 at the end of the setup.iss file

[DaveXP]

the vbs script works fine.
