hi

this topic link you provided is only for slipstreaming Service Packs and Updates into Office 2003, not into xp. and its based on office 2003 nt office 07. anyway please see if you can find a way to slipstream office 07 to xp. i have tried it with a cmd code:

@echo off

title Installing office '07

echo please be patient as this could take every long...

echo.

echo starting installer...

start /wait setup.exe

then i packed it wirar to create a sfx with comments:

Setup=install.cmd

TempMode

Silent=2

Overwrite=1

Title=M$ Office 2007 Enterprise

please check if ive done anything wrong in the comment code

it installs fully silent, but cant run in windows xp, during setup when it comes to "registering components" it starts installing but after 5 secs i get this error "setup components needs to be configured in control panel" and it aborts. please help me as am very close to making it a true addon.

No, it is for both, see the next page:

http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/view/web/49/

and its based on office 2003 nt office 07.

Yes, that is why I asked whether it still works on Office '07 or not, see?

I don't have O2k7, yet, so I don't know.

However, I would think the procedure may be similar, apart from the file names (same switches and all).

the link you provided, and that the info from that web

but how do i execute the batch file were do i go to make it start, or it does it automatically?

Office 2003 Simple Installation

Submitted by Alanoll

Grab your Office 2003 disc and copy the contents of it to: C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\install\Applications\Office2003\

Unattended XPCD

The number of files may vary for different Office 2003 Editions, don't worry if its not the same as in the screenshot above.

Add these lines to your batch file:

ECHO.

ECHO Installing Office 2003

ECHO Please wait...

start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\Office2003\PRO11.msi /QB

This will install the default components for Office 2003; which are Access, Excel, Frontpage, Outlook, Powerpoint, Publisher, Infopath and Word. You may want to do the Advanced version if you want full control over your Office 2003 Installation.

No, you have to call that yourself.

They assume you already have such a batch file with which you install other apps as well.

You can either create a new one and have it called by GUIRunOnce or RunOnceExec (Google that) OR enter the last line into nLite (just as I showed you in the other thread about the reg file, remember?).

OK Here goes:

#1 Make sure you have 07 enterprise office!

#2 Run it with the following switch = setup.exe /admin

#3 Follow all of the instructions paying alot of attention to the "Licensing and User interface" section enter the serial and select Display level = none

#4 save the resulting file as "Your-Name-here.msp" and add that file to the office 07 folder. Don't use spaces in the file name!

#5 Then add this line to the svcpack.ini or guirunonce in the winnt.sif file. "%cdrom%\office07\setup.exe /adminfile Your-Name-here.msp"

#6 add the office07 folder to the root of your disk.

Thats all there is 6 easy steps!!!!

Adding the hotfixes and updates:

#1 Download them all (Der)

#2 Goto Start --> Run and enter "temp"

#3 Leaving your temp folder open run each fix\update one at a time and COPY the .msp file(s) that appear in your temp folder to the "Updates" folder in your Office07 dir

That will autorun the updates during installation!

[shahed]

wow that sounds great, hopefully it should work now. thank you for your help and i will let you know if it works.

[shahed]

hi there i get this error when booting from cd saying error in line 60 invalid winnt.sif code

thats the way i edited my winnt.sif

[svcpack.ini]

"%cdrom%\office07\setup.exe /adminfile Shahed.MSP

[shahed]

kels did u actually try it yourself, to slipstream, and did it install during registering components or at guirunonce

[shahed]

were do i find the svcpack.ini in winnt.sif, can find anything in i386 folder

[Kelsenellenelvian]

svcpack.ini is compressed in the i386 dir. if not you would need to make your own.

I gave you the answer for the winnt.sif part is is guirunonce.

[guirunonce]

"%cdrom%\office07\setup.exe /admin Shahed.MSP"

[shahed]

which method did you try, did it work? because i tried guirunonce but it does not work

[Kelsenellenelvian]

Actually I use WPI to install my apps...

Show me your winnt.sif and folder layout please.

[shahed]

i dont think anyone has managed to slipstream office 2k7 because i read so many forums about office 2k7 but nothing happeinig there as well. i might as well use wpi to install it. hey kels thanks for your help any, and please let me know if you find a way to slipstream silent office to xp (true addon)

thank you, and yes thats how my winnt.sif looks like:

[tomo]

have a completely unattened office2k7 install all i do is add it to the runonce bat

%source%\install\office\setup.exe

i have then edited all the XML files within the setup to make it completly unattended

config.xml example

<Configuration Product="Enterprise">

<!-- <Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEula="yes" /> -->

<!-- <Logging Type="standard" Path="%temp%" Template="Microsoft Office Enterprise Setup(*).txt" /> -->

<!-- <PIDKEY Value="no-your-not-having-my-key" /> -->

<!-- <USERNAME Value="XP Silent Install" /> -->

<!-- <COMPANYNAME Value="XP Silent Install" /> -->

<!-- <INSTALLLOCATION Value="%programfiles%\Microsoft Office" /> -->

<!-- <LIS CACHEACTION="CacheOnly" /> -->

<!-- <SOURCELIST Value="\\server1\share\Office12;\\server2\share\Office12" /> -->

<!-- <DistributionPoint Location="\\server\share\Office12" /> -->

<!-- <OptionState Id="OptionID" State="absent" Children="force" /> -->

<!-- <Setting Id="Reboot" Value="IfNeeded" /> -->

<!-- <Command Path="msiexec.exe" Args="/i \\server\share\my.msi" QuietArg="/q" ChainPosition="after" Execute="install" /> -->

</Configuration>

if you require the installation i will host but obviously not with my product key in it.

ummmmmmmm NO that would be considered WAREZ and is grounds for being banned.

Kelsen, I like you're approach to the Office Install as described in your 6 step process. I'm running into a strange problem: When the guirunonce command "%cdrom%\Office2007\setup.exe /adminfile savecompatible.MSP" runs I get a message claiming that Windows cannot find the exe.

I have the disc in my drive now and I'm staring at the exe in the exact location that I specified ^^^. Setup is indeed there. Any idea why windows can't see this exe?

Thanks in advance!

In my old install a found this line:

REG ADD %KEY%\015 /VE /D "Office 2007 Enterprise" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 1 /D "%Systemdrive%\Data\Office\setup.exe /adminfile silent.msp" /f

I test and it works...

If you run your install from CMD, you must type:

"%cdrom%\Office2007\setup.exe" /adminfile savecompatible.MSP

Thanks for the tip!

Hmm, I updated my winnt.sif exactly as you specified and the issue persists. I would like to try your reg add commands...but where do those lines belong? Please excuse my ignorance :confused02:

In my old install a found this line:

REG ADD %KEY%\015 /VE /D "Office 2007 Enterprise" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 1 /D "%Systemdrive%\Data\Office\setup.exe /adminfile silent.msp" /f

[rubab]

Actually that part was not for WINNT.SIF

I think you were supposed to add it using RunOnceEx

[Raoul]

Kelsen, Thanks for the clear explanation, works perfectly.

Anyone has an idea when SP2 will arrive? In a few days I assume?
