Cheers mate, DVD arrived today. I checked it out using w98 under a virtual machine this morning before I setup a windows box, and didn't have any troubles at all. I installed windows on my loungeroom machine this afternoon and have been having a ball kicking everyones arses in every game we play. |

No problem my friend, glad it arrived safely
As said in my PM, please let me know if you have any issues / questions and I'll be most happy to help I actually sent a copy to krutknut as well. He had a small issue with the desktop shortcut not being copied across. After working out his PCs details etc. the problem was identified and I sent him out an updated SETUP.EXE The issue was that the relevant shortcut (based on it being run from either a DVD drive or a HDD partition) is supposed to get copied across to "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop"... As krustnut has a Swedish install of Windows XP, the Desktop is actually located "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Skrivbord" |

BTT: The path for the desktop in a German XP is 'C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\All Users\Desktop' (copied the shortcut manually), other than that all seems to look and work fine. Great work

The copying of the desktop shortcut works like this, of course depending on what options you selected for running the files: Code:
IF EXIST %Temp%.\DVD.TXT COPY /V /Y "%CDROMS%:\SNES\DESKTOP\SNES9X\%CDROMS%-SNES Emulator.lnk" "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\SNES Emulator.lnk" > NUL IF EXIST %Temp%.\C_HDD.TXT COPY /V /Y "%CDROMS%:\SNES\DESKTOP\SNES9X\C-SNES Emulator.lnk" "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\SNES Emulator.lnk" > NUL IF EXIST %Temp%.\D_HDD.TXT COPY /V /Y "%CDROMS%:\SNES\DESKTOP\SNES9X\D-SNES Emulator.lnk" "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\SNES Emulator.lnk" > NUL IF EXIST %Temp%.\E_HDD.TXT COPY /V /Y "%CDROMS%:\SNES\DESKTOP\SNES9X\E-SNES Emulator.lnk" "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\SNES Emulator.lnk" > NUL IF EXIST %Temp%.\F_HDD.TXT COPY /V /Y "%CDROMS%:\SNES\DESKTOP\SNES9X\F-SNES Emulator.lnk" "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\SNES Emulator.lnk" > NUL As you can see above the appropriate C-SNES Emulator.lnk --> Y-SNES Emulator.lnk gets copied to the Desktop but renamed to SNES Emulator.lnk... I'll send you an updated SETUP.EXE anyway as it will only take me 2 minutes to update the SETUP.CMD file and then convert it to an .EXE file... Just PM me your e-mail address Last edited by DamienD; 18 April 2007 at 21:02. |

I made a batch file (based on the CD_DVD.cmd one) that gets the desktop path from the registry, so it should work on all language versions.
Code:
@ECHO OFF SETLOCAL SET DESKTOPPATH= SET Temp1=%Temp%.\%~n0%Random%1.reg SET Temp2=%Temp%.\%~n0%Random%2.reg START /WAIT REGEDIT /E %Temp1% "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders" TYPE %Temp1% > %Temp2% TYPE %Temp2% | FIND "Common Desktop" > %Temp1% FOR /F "tokens=2 delims==" %%A IN (%Temp1%) DO CALL :ParseW2K %%A SET DESKTOPPATH > NUL DEL %Temp1% DEL %Temp2% ENDLOCAL & SET DESKTOPPATH=%DESKTOPPATH% GOTO:EOF :ParseW2K IF DEFINED DESKTOPPATH (SET DESKTOPPATH=%DESKTOPPATH%) ELSE (SET DESKTOPPATH=%~f1) GOTO:EOF Code:
"%DESKTOPPATH%\SNES Emulator.lnk" Code:
"C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\SNES Emulator.lnk" |

Guess I should really post this somewhere in the thread so that it saves people time in trying to see what it's all about / additions etc...
Some of it's in the README but some isn't: Quote:
