ShellExecute without wait?

Hi, trying to start an exe with parameters, and making a count while it's executing, like this:

Opt("TrayIconDebug", 1)
Opt("TrayAutoPause", 0)
Opt("TrayOnEventMode", 1)

SplashImageOn("Intel", "img\intel.jpg", -1, -1, -1, -1, 1)
Sleep(1000)
SplashOff()

ProgressOn("Progress...", "Working", "0 percent")
;ProgressSet(0, "0 %", "Working")
If FileExists("MEI_Intel_XP32_Vista_Win7_6001179\setup.exe") Then
ShellExecute("MEI_Intel_XP32_Vista_Win7_6001179\SETUP.EXE", "-s")
Count()
Else
MsgBox(64, "FileExists Function", "Intel MEI .exe not found!", 0)
Exit
EndIf

Func Count()
For $i = 0 To 100 Step +1
ProgressSet($i, $i & '%', "Working")
If ProcessWaitClose("SETUP.EXE") = 1 Then
ProgressSet(100, "100 %", "Done!")
Sleep(500)
ProgressOff()
Exit
EndIf
Sleep(1000)
Next
ProgressOff()
EndFunc ;==>Count

Problem is, it runs until it's finished, and im not using SEWait... :S How can i do this, using parameters, and making the count at the same time? Was thinking about some variables, just a loop, and cheking for some variable to become 1 or something like that, think it could work, but im more interested in why the script doens't just continue...

PS: I know i don't need to have the count part as a function, considering the script runs normally.

You're using ProcessWaitClose in your count function, that's going to pause the script until the process closes. What I think you're looking for would be ProcessExists, this way if the process is still running do something.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.
