Help on Audio Drivers wise script

Hi Folks,

  I need help on wise script. The main purpose of the script is to find out the device model number and then install audio drivers accordingly .
Per example: 
  If  Model number = HP Folios 9480m 
                       then 
                         Execute " audiodriver 1 setup.exe" -s -f1"setup1.iss" 
                       else if model number = HP Folios 9470m
                         then 
                           Execute "audiodriver2 setup.exe" -s -f1"setup1.iss"
                        End
                  End

I dont know how to get the device information. Please help me on this script.

Fyi:
I am using Wise package studio 8.0 to package the application.I have 2 audio drivers for two different laptop models

Thanks,
Sri.

Wisescript does not lend itself to retrieving model information unless you have previously anticipated such a requirement and have coded the model information as a registry value as part of the operating system build process.
Typically, you can get the detailed model information using WMI, and you can call the WMI code from wisescript and have it write the information to a temporary file which the subsequent Wisescript code can then read and call other programs appropriately.
Let me know if you can't figure this out.
Comments:
  • I am trying to use WMI to determine if a package can be run on a computer. I'm not sure how to start with this. I know that i will need the WMI to set a variable and from that i can have wisescript run or not run.

    This is the WMI that i have started.

    strComputer = "."

    Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

    Set colComputerSystem = objWMIService.ExecQuery ("Select * from Win32_computersystem")

    Set colBIOS = objWMIService.ExecQuery ("Select * from Win32_BIOS")

    For each objComputerSystem in colComputerSystem

    GetComputerManufacturer = objComputerSystem.Manufacturer

    GetComputerModel = objComputerSystem.Model

    Next

    Wscript.echo "The system you are on is a " & GetComputerManufacturer & " " & GetComputerModel

    how would i get this to output to a variable? - srisidhu558 9 years ago
    • The simplest way is to write the information to a file or registry key and read using Wisescript. However, depending on what you want to do overall, writing the whole code in vbscript would be a lot easier. I'll try to find some code for you as I think there is another method that may help you. - EdT 9 years ago
      • Thanks so much your valuable time EdT. I have tried couple of way(i.e created bat file and executed through wise script, create variables, functions and all ... ) to import above code, but no evil. I will be waiting for your code. - srisidhu558 9 years ago

OK, here is a script I wrote a few years ago to detect a range of Lenovo machines.  There is probably more information being gathered than you need for your specific requirement so you can cut out anything you don't need. This code ended up part of a build process and determined the right drivers to install for each model - not just audio drivers.
Hope this helps.

As you can see, there is no wisescript in the code above, but there is an option to save to a file. You could change the code to save to a fixed filename in a fixed location and then parse the file with wisescript if the need to use wisescript is unavoidable for some reason.
Comments:
  • I have simplified your code as per my requirement. Here is my vbscript below.


    strComputer = "."
    Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
    & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

    Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_ComputerSystemProduct")

    For each objitem in colItems
    wscript.echo objitem.Name
    Next

    I could able to run this script and got result as model number. but I couldn't able to get the output to redirect to wise script.Can you please me this ? - srisidhu558 9 years ago
    • Can I recommend you read through my past postings here as the answer is already there. - EdT 9 years ago
