please could anyone help me


how to customize/edit winddows 98 Setup BootScreen OR
Windows Post-Install Wizard (WPI) just like in XP
Tihiy
1) Create(or edit) logo.sys in the root directory which exactly is BMP file 320x400x256 colors.
2) Edit .infs (advanced) + you can add 1stboot.bmp to setup directory as setup background.

sorry for asking the question in a wrong way

Well , i didn't mean so ,

all i meant or i asked for , is could i make an unattended cd for win98 just like in xp

(WPI ) , and if i can even edit the billboards on it , and stuff like that ??????????
Tihiy
Something wrong again?..
You can do unattended 9x CD: google "MSBATCH.inf"
You can edit billboards: extract win95.ini from precopy2.cab and edit it,
but it will be shown during install, *not* in WPI, there is no WPI in w9x.

thanx alot tihiy for your help

...
ok
there is something also needed,

suppose , as an example , i want to add a new component to be installed in the windows setup and to be selected from the windows setup menu ..

as an example from the windows 98 setup : i want to add "accessibility" to my windows , i just click on it in the setup menu , then it adds automatically with it's needed files to my windows 98

just like that but i wanted to add more programs , like norton , nero , somestuff like that , how... ????????????????

I understand. But it's very advanced and nobody currently researching it in Win9x/Me, because win9x/me are old.
You can try 98Lite to add more removable components to Windows and you can try to add post-installation commands to msbatch.inf, but if you want to create removable component you must learn hard how to edit .inf files.

ok
so
could anyone please help me in understanding the msbatch.inf codes

and i want to locate the inf files that is used in the setup process interface
??????????????
