Software Deployment

When silent installs fails, it normally means that there is a Custom Action in the User Interface sequence which hasn't been copied into the Execute sequence. Because the UI sequence isn't run when installing silently, the CA doesn't get run.

I think the best way will be to capture it???

I talked to the HP g guys and they said it won't work as a limited user unless I install the patch they gave it to me. and that works fine for me..
The only thing is . should I capture all including the patch or how???

I captured it and it seems like so many error and warning I have to fix...any alternate way please...??

Hi,
are we talking about the driver package (1.6 MB) or the the hole software all the HP crap inside (167MB ??!!) ?
The driver package is a done with dpinst and a plain setup stub, which can easily unpacked with tools like 7zip.
This should be installable from deployment solution, out of the box. If not, look up the dpinst docu at:

If you really need some apps from the full package, unpack it with 7zip and just install the needed SW. All those SW comes as separate MSI packages.

Whole HP crap..

Ok, which apps from the hole package do your customers really need?
Extract them, and install them one by one with your deployment solution.
And use the drivers only package for the drivers.
Good luck.
