or you can use this command

mui.msi /qb

[what3v3r]

MUISETUP.exe /i xxxx /d yyyy /r /s

xxxx = language id to be installed
yyyy = language id, of the default language you want to set.

/r /s = are used for silent installation.

executing

muisetup.exe /?

reveals even more useful options

erhm guys ? can i have a bit more help please ?

i pasted the following line into WPI to install MUI

%CDROM%\Retestrak\MUI\MUISETUP.exe /i 0401 040d 0411 0412 0404 0804 0407 041D 0410 0413 040c 0c0a 0416 /d 040d /r /s

but it doesnt install any of the language packs ?

do i need to add something extra ? did i forget something ?

[what3v3r]

the command string looks ok.
maybe double check the language ids, and the path?

[Retestrak]

well i created an answerfile etc but when i run winnt32.exe it gives an error

thats where i'm stuck e.g need help

here is my second line in wpi :

%CDROM%\I386\winnt32.exe /unattend:"%CDROM%\Retestrak\Z\mui.txt" /s:"%CDROM%\Retestrak\MUI\MUISETUP.exe"

and this is the error i get :



i have no clue on what to do next ! i really need help from a pro here ...

[Retestrak]

ok i tried again ...

this the last thing i tried :

this is my answerfile e.g mui.txt

[Unattended]
OemPreinstall=Yes
OemFilesPath=".\Retestrak\MUI" <----is this correct ???
OemSkipEula=YES

[RegionalSettings]
LanguageGroup=1,2,5,6
Language=0409

i put these 2 lines in WPI

%CDROM%\Retestrak\MUI\MUISETUP.exe -i 0406 0413 040b 040c 0407 0410 0816 0419 0c0a 041D 041f -d 0409 -r -s

%CDROM%\I386\winnt32.exe /unattend:"%CDROM%\Retestrak\Z\mui.txt" /copysource:"lang" /s:"%CDROM%\Retestrak\MUI\"

and i still get the same error as in above post

i install it from cmdlines, but the same should work for wpi

muisetup.exe /i 0419 /d 0419 /l /f /r /s

Hey let me ask you guys, did any of this work, this is my next step of install the mui for XP OS. If you guys can give me a little detail that would be great. I have another topic posted also for the MUI on Office 2k3, so if any of you guys have any usefull information that might help me please see my post. http://www.msfn.org/...showtopic=55910

Thanks guys,

Just wanted to share with you guys, that I was able to get both OS and Office Multilanguage installed by using Microsoft Office 2k3 Resource Kit's Custom Installation Wizard. Worked flawlessly with my ua dvd.

[what3v3r]

it works the way, mickmack said.
just put this command in wpi:

%CDROM%\Retestrak\MUI\MUISETUP.exe /i 0406 0413 040b 040c 0407 0410 0816 0419 0c0a 041D 041f /d 0409 /r /s

thats the way it has to work. there shouldnt be any additional steps required. you shouldnt have to use an answer file.

maybe you should try it with one language first. you could install an english windows in vmware, and run a command like this from a dos-prompt

MUISETUP.exe /i 0406 /d 0406 /r /s
