I'm wondering if there are any programs that will not load calling from winnt.sif file. I have all my programs loading from there through a install cmd file. One program, my Nostromo software Nostromo drivers will not load, but if I run the same command once windows xp is fully loaded, it will install fine. Here is my command.
start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Nostromo\setup.exe /S /v/qn


I've looked around, couldn't find an answer if some programs will not load up this way. Thanks for any info.

probably because not enough windows has loaded for it to install properly...depends on when your running your batch...at guirunonce, detached?

yea I run it from my winnt.sif using the guirunonce method. Is there a method of installing it at a later state of windows being loaded? Thanks for any info.

Try this:

start /wait "%systemdrive%\install\Nostromo\setup.exe /S /v/qn"


EDIT: 900 posts! :w00t:

I never use quotes in my command for any installation. They all work fine except this one. I made an installation package using Installrite and it seems to work fine installing this way.
