    Using PowerShell to create Web-CD to install applications

    I have never used PowerShell before and need to achieve the following
    objective.
    1 - Install applications on a standalone PC and provide registry updates to
    add an IP address for new print devices being added, and last install drivers
    for these printer devices. The total objective is to put the CD in and allow
    the end user to use a web GUI to point and click through the process to have
    the suite of applications, drivers and registry updates to be installed. Most
    importantly without having Windows PowerShell installed on the PC, the CD
    itself needs to be totally self sustainable.

    Hi,
    It sounds a bit like you are looking for an HTA (HTML Application).
    Check out http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms536496.aspx

    If you want to build a GUI in vbScript consider NSBasic/Desktop at
    http://www.nsbasic.com/desktop/

    I've used NSBasic to build some simple Windows applications that it
    will compile as .exe and It's a nice product with good support.

    Hope this helps,
    Stuart
