This is a silent installer for ADS 2004A.

Put both CDs into one folder on your server.

Note: the installer doesn't work when it is started as a SYSTEM user (which means, the installer only works if it is run as an Administrator). Unfortunately, there is more badly packaged software like that.


 <package 
   id="ADS2004A" 
   name="Advanced Design System 2004A" 
   revision="1" 
   reboot="false" 
   priority="5">
 
   <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Advanced Design System  2004A" />
 
   <install cmd='%SOFTWARE%\ADS\2004A\setup.exe /s /sms /f1"%SOFTWARE%\ADS\2004A\silent\complete.iss" /v"/qn"' />
 
 </package>

You may exchange complete.iss with typical.iss.
To customize the response file, refer to Silent Installations.
