Switches “Setup.exe” Windows 98 Only

• /na – This switch bypasses the program check and can use the following values:
  0: default
  1: No Windows-based program check, but MS-DOS-based program are blocked.
  2: No MS-DOS-based program check, Windows-based programs are blocked.
  3: No Windows-based or MS-DOS-based program check.
• /nd – This switch ignores the presence of a Migration.dll file and is used to force Win 98 to overwrite newer files.
  NOTE: Files that use the “,,,32″ flag in the .inf file still force Windows 98 Setup to keep the newer files.
• /nf – Do not prompt to remove the floppy disk from the drive (for bootable CD-ROMs)
  - Same as if there is a file named BOOTCD in the cabinet folder.
  - Same as if there is a “BootCD=1” line in the Msbatch.inf file.
• /nh – This switch bypasses running the Hwinfo.exe program at 0 percent files and RunOnce.
• /m – This switch bypasses the playing of the Setup sound (.wav) files.
• /nx – Do not check the version of Setupx that is running.
• /ie – This switch bypasses the Windows 98 Startup Disk wizard screens. If this switch is used, the Windows\Command\EBD folder is not created.
• /iv – This switch bypasses displaying the Setup screens during an upgrade within Windows.

Windows 98 and Windows 95

• /c – This switch bypasses running SMARTDrive.
• /l – Use this switch if you have a Logitech mouse and want it enabled during Setup.
• /n – This switch causes Setup to run without a mouse.
• /d – This switch bypasses using your existing Windows configuration (such as your current Win.ini and System.ini files).
• -s – Use this switch to use an alternate Setup.inf file.
• /t:  – This switch lets you specify where Setup copies its temporary files. WARNING: Any existing files in this folder are deleted.
• /is – This switch causes Setup not to run ScanDisk.
• /ig – Allows Setup to run on some older Gateway and Micron computers with an early BIOS.
• /ih – This switch causes Setup to run ScanDisk in the foreground.
• /iq – If you use the /is switch to bypass ScanDisk or ScanDisk fails,
• /im – Causes setup to ignore the conventional memory check.
  Setup checks your drive for cross-linked files. The /iq switch prevents Setup from doing this.
• /it – This switch bypasses checking for the presence of “dirty” or “deadly” terminate-and-stay-resident programs (TSRs) that are known to cause problems with Windows Setup.
• /p – This switch causes Setup to pass string(s) directly to Detection Manager (or Sysdetmg.dll). Setup does not interpret the content of the string. The string can contain one or more detection options.
  The /p switch is not used by itself. For more information on the /p switch, please see the “/p Detection Switch Option String Defined” section below.
