Unattended windows install cd




















Still, in a perfect world we'd all like to have the monitor on so we can see the magic happen - I'm sure there's a way to direct the system to not search for extra drivers. Can anyone shed some more light on this part of Windows setup?

SYS and JO. SYS these files should be in the boot image to give your Boot CD extra spice and to show off to your friends that you can modify all instances of 'Windows' and 'Microsoft' to rather funnier versions. Its annoying that if you forget to delete it before trying to get on the net, a completely unwanted invitation to connect to MSN appears.

Apparently the Batch98 utility was designed to achieve this but it doesn't work even if you just try it without ANY updates at all , and there was also a Dec KB article that showed how to do it, but that doesn't work either.

Actually it may work but the code was posted without any context - its unclear which other settings need to appear in tandem. I've also tried RegShot paraglider version - thanks eidenk but not extensively, to no avail. I was quite overjoyed to find a posting on how to shrink an office installation but the posted suggestions don't seem to work for Office 2K.

Or other suggestions to making the shrink work? All the special icons that appear on the desktop are specified in the registry by a GUID value corresponding to a CLSID key which in turn specifies the icon and the context menu of the icon under one of those keys :. Automatically removing any should just be a matter of adding a convenient registry file to batch setup.

There are 2 programs however in german, but it should be understandable , which can make a custom monitor. If the registry files that are added to batch setup are processed after everything else as it should, the above registry file should automatically remove the MSN icon from the desktop. Otherwise adapt it.

Try it and tell me if it works. Thanks for all the suggestions - I only got it to work after setup finishes. I tried adding it to run after Internet Explorer 6 sp1 finishes which is the last piece of setup before the first boot to the desktop but I'm guessing it gets added back as a configuration process as the first desktop is loading up. So I've added it to the start of media The 1st post has been adjusted. Thanks heaps for those [Enh] settings, Kukris, but it seems ack-hh has taken issue with them.

Could you either post a link to somewhere that explains the settings you've suggested, or could you provide a short explanation of each one? For the same reason I'm ignoring any suggestions regarding custom monitor infs, or solutions for a particular monitor I want it to work for whichever monitor is present , the suggestion for the MaxFileCache is not helpful unless we can somehow determine how much RAM is present.

I searched quite a bit for a solution and it appears that its only easily possible in NT or higher. Someone please tell me I'm wrong. Well, I'd really like to know why for nearly all your points, ack-hh because I'm curious not because I disagree!

The only point I can sort of agree with is the one about MaxFileCache but only because of the point I made above, in that we need to know the amount of RAM before automatically setting it. You'd have to be pushing it to the very limit in some way that I can't even think of to need it. What makes you say what you wrote? And I think everyone would benefit if you elaborated further with reasons for why you said what did.

Don't take this the wrong way, I think all your comments have been very useful so far! And you wrote: 'when would you ever NEED to? I thought the purpose of including it was to improve performance. I've noticed much less swap file activity with it turned on. Also, why is naming the page file 'pagefile. In an ideal world, an assertion would be followed by a reason and even better, an example.

And, lastly, thanks for the post re: shrinking office - it worked perfectly - my office archive file is only 65Mb! Specifies the drive and name for the swap file. If you have a faster drive than your OS is installed you can tell Windows to use another partition.

So you can save space by only having one swap file. If you use the same size of minimum and maximum Windows doesn't have to calculate each time the size of the swap file. Specifies the refresh rate in mili seconds for a Dos-Box not fullscreen. If you have a real slow computer you should use other values or skip it. By default Windows 98 loads some programs in the swap file and not all in RAM. Windows 95 however loads all programs in RAM until it's full. So use this setting only if you have much RAM and a fast hard drive.

There are a lot of options to choose from so if you are unsure use these Check the "use this version on install" and accept the licensing agreement. Once you have finished selecting all the options you want to use, click the "apply" button.

Select the "rebuild one" option. The files will begin to rebuild and it can take between 10 and 15 minutes to complete.
