    Hope this is not too simple but ask more if needed...

    I use usb drive for installation so first find \sources dir on your win7 installation dvd/usb set, create folder $OEM$ in sources directory, after that create $$, Setup and Scripts directories. Now you should have \sources\$OEM$\$$\Setup\Scripts\ directory.

    Create \sources\$OEM$\$$\Setup\Scripts\SetupComplete.cmd (you can use notepad). This is the file that win7 installation launches at the end of the system installation, here is example of my SetupComplete.cmd:

    c:\windows\setup\scripts\dotNetFx40_Full_x86_x64.exe /passive

    It will simply run .exe file in passive mode. Just make sure you have \sources\$OEM$\$$\Setup\Scripts\dotNetFx40_Full_x86_x64.exe because all files in \sources\$OEM$\$$\Setup\Scripts\ will be copied to systemdrive\windows\setup\scripts\ which usually is c:\windows\setup\scripts\.

    hi rotta thank you for your reply but i'm little confused :confused:. in your examlple

    will it work to write
    dotNetFx40_Full_x86_x64.exe /passive
    on the SetupComplete.cmd because the dotNetFx40_Full_x86_x64.exe and SetupComplete.cmd is on the same folder

    and to install a s/w do i have have to put the dvd's path ie \sources\$OEM$\$$\Setup\Scripts\
    on the SetupComplete.cmd:
    or the after installation windows path ie c:\windows\setup\scripts\
    and can we use %WINDIR%\Setup\Scripts\ instead of c:\windows\setup\scripts\


    ps. sorry for my english its not my native language    :D
