Ok I was wondering if there are any switchs/commands I need to make this silently install on my Unattened XP Install DVD?



I got this so far:

Echo Installing Propeller Tool Software v0.98.1
Echo Please wait...
start /wait msiexec /I %systemdrive%\install\Applications\Propeller\Propeller_0_98_1.msi /SILENT

    El Paisa:

    The Captain is referring to installing the Propeller IDE without any dialog boxes prompting him for as to where to install the software on the computer or what options he wants to install with the IDE (help files for example).

    The Captain:

    To perform a silent install, pass the /S /v/qn switches to the executable installer file (Example, Prompt:> "Name of Setup File" /S /v/qn). The way I found this out was by opening a command prompt, and typing the name of executable installer file followed by a space and then the switch /? (Example, Prompt:>"Name of Setup File" /?). A dialog box will appear listing the various switches you can use to install software that uses Install Shield.

    Hope this helps,
