Win98 Cab Files

[Lee]

Have copied Win98 Cab Files to hard disk. Where in the registry do I change
to show this so that I don't have to input CD when windows calls for it?
Thanks in advance.

Change the value of SourcePath under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Setup

When ask for the disk hit browse and point
it to the file.

Lee,

You can also change the Source Path in TweakUI if you have it.

Under the My Computer tab in Special folders change the Installation
Path. The CD should be mounted for this.

TweakUI 1.33:
http://www.microsoft.com/ntworkstation/downloads/powertoys/networking/nttweakui.asp
Right click the INF file and install. Then find it in Control Panel.

I should say the CD MAY need to be inserted for this. Try it
without. first.
