Would anyone like a script that....

[DaveXP]

Hey Guys i am bored so i thought i might create a script that copied your windows xp disk to your HDD,then slipstream SP1 or SP2 to your XPCD and add all your files and did all setup information for you and all you need to do is edit the winnt.sif when its done to add your cd-key etc... and put all needed files in a folder called xpsetup (e.g. DirectX9b, WMP9, MM2 etc...)

to save time for you people.

Wow finally someone has answered my prayers, i love it when someone else does the work cant wait 4 u to finish, BTW what apps will u be doing?

Does Anyone know a 'working' link to a list of all the fixes in order after winXP SP1a

Also can someone help me with the Intel App Accel and Intel Chipset Drivers in and unattended install along with the Nvidia drivers

Thanks

[DaveXP]

i got some of it working but one thing i am not sure on is how to tell it to copy from the CDROM drive as many people have different drive letters?

[TechZ]

the best thing would be if we could install it from teh hdd with all the apps also on teh hdd and of course be able to choose the partition

[DaveXP]

you mean create a folder somethere (anydrive) place the script in that folder then copy your xpcd to the folder called xpsetup and then in the same folder crate folders called DirectX9b MSN6 etc and then it would make the unattended CD and also make it bootable and ready to burn cd

IF EXIST J:\I386\WINNT.exe SET CDROM=J:
IF EXIST K:\I386\WINNT.exe SET CDROM=K:

if %CDROM%==A GOTO :CD_ERR
ECHO YOUR CD-ROM DRIVE IS %CDROM% 
XCOPY %CDROM% D:\tmp /Q /E /H

ECHO PERFORMING THE REST OF THE SCRIPT

:END
::	<---TAKE THE PAUSE OUT ONCE YOU HAVE ESTABLISHED THE CODE WORKS
