nforce2 unattended via RunOnceEx - no integrate

**phaolo** · March 25, 2007

Hello,

I'd like to make a default Winlite iso with only hotfixes integrated.

Other things, like drivers, are going to be unstalled with RunOnceEx method (so they can be easily changed for different computers)

I managed to install nforce2 drivers silently via CAB, but I cannot avoid a reboot..do you know what can I do to stop that?

cab commands:

setup.exe /s /f1"c:\setup.iss" *

/norestart don't seem to work

Thanks

* better use absolute paths. see below

Nforce2 driver setup doesn't work on VMware! (also nvidia forcewares)

It crashes also with a non-silent install

I had to try them on my machine and hopefully nothing bad happened.. but I still cannot avoid reboot

Also BootOption=0 inside setup.iss doesn't work

These are the commands for the cab (self extracts to "%systemroot%\temp):

setup.exe /s /SMS /f1"%systemroot%\temp\setup.iss" /O REBOOT=ReallySuppress /QB

Can anyone help me?

Woops! I lost this post and I've created a double..

Sorry..

Doh..I discovered why drivers setups crash on vmware..

I thought the program could detect real hardware like mobo, sound card and graphic cards..but it can't!

How the hell can I try the drivers before the real installation then..

Gosh.. just read the >>> First Read This <<< sticky..

I need autoit scripts made by someone then..

The reboot is involved by IDE drivers , try silent install without IDE package ...

But..can I avoid to install them? I mean..aren't those files needed?

Standard IDE driver from Microsoft are stable.

IDE SW from nVidia are for perfomance, but in fact there isn't too much difference ...
