Hello,

I've got a multi-disk installation that is exhibiting strange behavior in maintenance mode. The first CD completes and the installation prompts for the second CD. The installation finishes and if the user select 'Yes' reboot the machine I get a dialog box titled 'Windows - Wrong Volume' with the message 'The wrong volume is in the drive. Please insert volume <first CD> into drive D:.'. I don't have any ideas as to what is causing this. Any ideas or thoughts?

Thanks,
Tom

Most likely because it wants the first CD since that's where the setup was originally ran from. I'd suggest manually switching CDs prior to the reboot, and if that does the trick, adding such a prompt to your InstallScript.

Hello,

I think the below will work, however I have an autorun.inf file on the first CD that causes the the install to kick off. Is there any way to suppress the autorun programatically?

Thanks,
Tom

There's nothing below. Did you mean the above?

It is possible to disable the autorun functionality, but unfortunately, I don't know the exact registry entry hack.

To try and figure it out though, I would apply TweakUI and use RegMon to try and capture the registry modifcation as I toggle the autorun data CD setting.
