Regards Barry -----Original Message----- From: Davis, Keith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 22 July 2005 17:26 To: Curr, Barry; [email protected] Subject: RE: [unattended] "Splash Screen" Yes, but todo.pl waits for the batch file to end. Also, do you really want to guess at the install time?

The first part loads the screen for say 8 hours. You would then do the rest of your install script (in the batch file I ping localhost). The final part would be the pskill line. Barry -----Original Message----- From: Davis, Keith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 16 July 2005 06:15 To: Curr, Barry; [email protected] Subject: RE: [unattended] "Splash Screen" Right, except in the case of Unattended, start and stop will have to be two separate scripts in order for todo.pl to run other applications. Hmmm, actually, you probably don't even need a stop, as long as you finish with a reboot (I can't imagine you not.) Thanks, Keith Davis Senior Office Automation Engineer Pegasus Solutions, Inc.

The attached zip consists of: splash.au3 (the autoit3 script) splash.jpg (a sample screen) splash.txt (a batch file demonstrating its use ... renamed to .txt for over zealous mail sweeping servers) You will need to get yourself pskill from here: http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/PsKill.html How to use it: splash.au3 loads the splash screen for a ridiculous amount of time (set it for 8 hours if you like). Install whatever you want Use pskill last to kill the autoit3 exe file. See splash.bat for the example. In the script/batch file it assumes everything is at the root of c: I'm sure theres a better way within autoit to wait but I've used it for all of about an hour :) Plus I like the fact I can leave it up there permamently and use the unattended script to kill the process when I'm ready.
