GUIDPROC.EXE is the graphical front-end for the install process.

  • It uses a wizard-like layout.
  • Common keyboard commands:
    • Ctrl + / Ctrl - (enlarge/reduce text size)
    • Shift F3 (open a command prompt window)
    • F5 (view detected hardware – after detection runs)
    • > / < (next/previous page)
    • Ctrl Alt F11 (switch user interface mode: full-screen vs window)
  • Every page you see is partially defined by a Guided Procedure Script (GPS) file.
  • GPS files define the text displayed on the page; they also help determine how the user's selections are dealt with.
  • All the GPS files for a specific language are kept in a single subdirectory, which is set at runtime. This makes support for multiple languages very easy.
  • It also allows a great deal of customization, without having to modify the program itself.
