64 BIT 32 BIT AND OS if statements

[lolcatz]

Im trying to find out how to detect the operating system and bit version then run a program based of that

For example

If Windows 7/8 32 bit then run _______

If windows 7/8 64 but then run _________

If windows vista/xp 32 bit run __________

If windows vista/xp 64 bit run __________

Welcome to AutoIt and the forum!

Please have a look at the @OSArch and @OSVersion macros.

[lolcatz]

Thank You! You lead me in the right direction. I will research it my self but further help is still be appreciated. If someone can write a sample script, that would be awesome.

If @OSVersion = "WIN_7" and @OSArch = "X86" Then ; Windows 7 32 bit

Give it a try first, then if you get stuck show what you've done and we will help.

I been trying to make an auto installer for windows Microsoft enstinals and i need it to read what bit version then install the file based on that.

Since i can not include another exetuable i need it check my flash drive and find the file there.

But the flash drives can change letters on different computers so i need to scan all of them.

when I run it I get a ugi telling me that there is no drive there and should continue or cancel after i click continue 5 times then It runs the program

Is there any way to go around this problem?

Create a function which you pass the filename. The function loops through all the available drives (DriveGetDrive) and uses FileExist to check if the file exists. If it does, run it.

K I will look into that u guys are AMAZING! I cant thank you enough best,nice,helpful community ever!

Im having trouble with the code this is the best i got

Local $aArray = DriveGetDrive("REMOVABLE")
$name = "SLIENTmse 32 bit_silent.exe"


For $i = 1 To $aArray[0]
If FileExists(StringUpper($aArray[$i]) &$name)
Then Run(StringUpper($aArray[$i]) &$name)
EndIf
Next

I been trying to make something like this. I want to auto detect which OS it runs on then auto format its hard drive. and then auto re install the operation system. Im done with making silent applications like coddecs flashplayer and ect, But now i have to program to auto detect which programs to install. I want it to be completely automatically.

your welcome to harvest the code to help you out. Are you planning to use a boot CD to do this? I'm asking for you say you want to re-install the OS. Also - Is this going to be a go to tool for all PCs you service?

[lolcatz]

its not going to be on from a boot cd its going to be off a USB drive. I already know how to make it so it can auto format and auto re install the OS, Then as soon it starts up it self install unattended applications. Yes im going to use it on the computer i service. All that i want to do is plug in my usb come back 2 hrs latter and the computer should be good as new. Im also gana release it to the public when im done with it.

I got it to work now but i still get error msgs that no dirve exist

$var = DriveGetDrive( "REMOVABLE" )
If NOT @error Then

For $i = 1 to $var[0]

$drive = $var[$i]
If FileExists (StringUpper ($drive)&"SLIENTmse 32 bit_silent.exe")Then
Run(StringUpper ($drive)&"SLIENTmse 32 bit_silent.exe")

EndIf


Next
EndIf;

If the script is on the same drive as the software to be installed, use relative path names instead of using the drive letter. For example, your software is in "E:Software installssoftware to install". Instead of trying to find out which drive letter it is running from you can use "Software installssoftware to install" as long as the script is running from the same drive and you set the working directory to that drive as well.

I tried this it dint work for me

If @OSArch ="X86" Then
Run("SLIENTnotepad.txt")
ElseIf @OSArch ="X64" Then
Run("SLIENTnotepad.txt")
EndIf

im not auto it proficient but im gana recommend it to everyone in all my programming class its so easy to learn and can do some amazing stuff

[BrewManNH]

That doesn't work because a text file isn't runnable, use ShellExecute instead of Run and let us know how it goes.

[lolcatz]

That worked Perfectly Thanks

Here is the package that auto installs Microsoft security essentials. You cant run it from the desktop tho it has to be extracted directly into one of your drives with no subfolders

http://www.mediafire.com/?1r0r9mpbbm9290t

when im done with the whole Auto format hard drive and auto install os and applications i will release it here first!

Does that package (above) include MSE? I'm sure that is against Microsoft's terms and conditions.
