Unattended Vista Installation project WildRhino <WildRhino.3ijy85[ at ]no-mx.forums.vistaheads.com> 11/8/2008 10:18:28 AM Hi every-one, This is my first post so apologies if this is not in the correct sub-forum :) We need to run many unattended, concurrent installations of Vista (HP and Ultimate) in both 32 and 64 bit as well as a few XP installs. We think that network installations may be the best for us. Once the installations have finished, we would need certain applications (3rd party) installing and then stress testing apps launched. Is there any-one that could write these routines / set-up this for us and at what sort of cost? We are based in the UK. TIA :) -- WildRhino Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com

Look around there. See all the "guests"? THOSE people don't use that board... their posts are leached from Microsoft servers. They see your stupid "BUMP" message and nothing else.

It is just a web interface that leeches Usenet newsgroup posts. Since the rest of us are using real newsreaders to access Usenet directly, we don't see what you do. We've never been to that "forum" and all we see is an orphaned "BUMP" post. So we have no idea to what you are referring and therefore can't help you. Post back with a full description of your problem, your computer, and what you've already done. The links under "How to Post" below will show you what details to include. And here is standard information about setting up a newsreader (very easy to do). ***** Since you are using the web interface, you may not realize that this is really a newsgroup. You will get far more out of this resource if you learn to use a newsreader. There are many good newsreaders for Windows, but you can use Outlook Express (XP) or Windows Mail (Vista) since you already have it. Here are some links to information about newsgroups: About Usenet: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usenet http://www.faqs.org/faqs/ - Usenet FAQs from the Internet FAQ Archives http://www.usenetmonster.com/infocenter/ http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Usenet - a brief explanation of newsgroups Outlook Express/Windows Mail as Newsreader: http://michaelstevenstech.com/outlookexpressnewreader.htm http://rickrogers.org/setupoe.htm http://vistasupport.mvps.org/accessing_newsgrousp_with-windows_mail.htm How to Post: http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Usenet http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/555375 - How to Ask a Question http://users.tpg.com.au/bzyhjr/liszt.htm - How Not to Get Technical Help on Usenet http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html http://aumha.org/nntp.htm - list of MS newsgroups microsoft.public.test.here - MS group to test if your newsreader is working properly http://www3.telus.net/dandemar/munad.htm - how to munge email address http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossposting - crossposting http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/mul_crss.htm - multiposting Other Newsreaders for Windows: http://www.forteinc.com/main/homepage.php - Forte http://www.mozilla.org - Thunderbird ***** Malke -- MS-MVP Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!
