Hi,
I downloaded the 2008 files and was getting my automated installscripts, files, etc all ready to go so we can be prepared when thefull release comes out.
When I use the new 'Installation Manger', manually run the MSI,manually run swsetup it works fine. It fails when I usemy .ini file and the swsetup.exe. It fails when I use the MSIwith the appropriate switches.

Is my only option to now, use the XML and run this below line thatcame out of the HTM file? sldIM.exe"" /adminclient/new /source ""C:\PATH\AdminDirector.xml
So tell me where I'm going wrong, or have I found a bug? Iappreciate any input. Thanks Joey

I cannot figure out what makes the Ageia stuff install,
I'vecracked open the MSI and tried the various other features that
areshown, such as Intel_Modules,Intel_Modules_Ageia with no luck.
The administrative guides still show my methods as
acceptable.
Here is my ini file and the respective switches on the
MSIfile.

What I did is create a batch file that runs the following xcopy command BEFORE running the SolidWorks installation;
@xcopy "{ADMIN_IMAGE_PATH}\SolidWorks\PFolder\AGEIA Technologies" "C:\Program Files\AGEIA Technologies\" /s /i /q
For some unknown reason, the command line install doesn't seem to grab these files no matter what you do, but if you copy them manually ahead of time, the installation seems to work fine.
Thank you for contacting SolidWorks Technical Support.
During the installation from the admin image the AGEIA PhysX engine needs to be added to the ADDLOCAL list of parameters. Use the appropriate command from the following list:
32 on 64 = Intel_Modules_AgeiaX64
32 on 32 = Intel_Modules_AgeiaX86
64 on 64 = Nothing required
This parameter should be added in the ADDLOCAL (ADDLOCAL=Intel_Modules_AgeiaX86) section of the installation. I have notified documentation that this parameter is not listed in the installation guide and we will work on getting that information included.
