Lost Soul Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 (edited) it looks to me like an address issue, your calling in example to this locationcmd1[pn]=['%cdrom%\\Programs\\Alcohol_120%_1.9.5.3105_Retail.exe'];from that understanding, it means that in your cd structure the folder called "programs" would need to be in the root of your cd and if the program cant find the correct address to the installations then it cant install them, therefor nothing will install.can you post your cd structure ? because it seems to me, thats the issue Edited March 19, 2007 by Lost Soul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelsenellenelvian Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 I need to see your installation log!Also the only language WPI has problems with is 2-byte Chinese OS... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolver Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 (edited) it just "start WPI\wpi.hta"....Try this:In the $OEM$ directory on my CD, I have cmdlines.txtIn there, I have added: RunWPI.cmdSo my cmdlines.txt looks like this:[Commands]"rundll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection nLite.inf,U""REGEDIT /S regTweaks.reg"Royale.exeRunWPI.cmd(The first line was added by nLite, the second line was my own addition with registrytweaks. Don't copy these, just add RunWPI.cmd to your cmdlines.txt.)RunWPI.cmd is also on my $OEM$ - directoryIt doesn't only start WPI, it also recognizes the right CD and creates the %wpipath%-variable with this code:for /f "delims=: tokens=1" %%i in ("%~dp0") do set drive=%%i:FOR %%i IN (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%i:\XP_InstallDVD.txt SET CDROM=%%i:set wpipath=%cdrom%\wpiSET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceExREG ADD %KEY%\999 /V 1 /D "%wpipath%\WPI.hta" /fOn the root of my CD, I also have a blank textfile, named XP_InstallDVD.txt,used by RunWPI.cmd to recognize my XPinstall-DVD (I have 2 DVD-drives)You only start with WPI\wpi.htaMaybe that's why it won't work...
