Could you please elaborate kiwi_2005. 
Thanks, btw Avira is great!  (wonder how long it will last free?  )
Edit: I did look on the web for AIO Creator but find nothing but crap, also looked up nLite, blowed if I can figure what the heck it is, how to use etc, I think a manual install is the way to go! |
Might be easier for you as you probably wont get it right first time, i know i didn't. But if your willing to put in the time its worth it. AIO creator aint easy to get, i got the standard version from a I.T mate.
You can create an AIO manually these tools will do the same as an AIO creator:
Installer2Go v4.2.1 or later [[This tool for creating reliable Windows Installer packages that meet the Windows logo certification guidelines. Installer2Go is script-free and does not require the user to have any programming background, nor does it require the user to learn any application-specific language! It allows you to use a point-and-click interface to create and manage installation projects based on your business needs. Besides that this tool will allow you to create self-extracting executable files for distribution over the Web, Internet, Intranet and e-mail your data files, graphic images or whatever else you want to distribute!]]
CDMENU pro v5 - [creates a CD auto-start menu]
Install creator/Clickteam Install Maker Pro - [select a directory of files to install, customize your install program with a few mouse clicks and build it].
EasyBoot - For multiple OS installs and menus/creates gui layouts and more.
Smart Install. For creating full-scale installation packages. The program works with windows system registry and ini files. It can create shortcuts, display license agreement and information texts, register ActiveX controls, and execute commands.
In the end your have a bootable dvd that starts up with a graphic layout you designed yourself, WinXp/Vista or whatever OS of your choosing as the main installation, in the menus you created your see your software you have added. Just check what you want installed and begin.
