svcPack.IN_

null@example.com (ikbeneenlul) — Fri, 17 May 2013 23:37:19 +0000

I need to integrate qChain.EXE into svcpack.IN_.

; QChain.exe gives system administrators the ability to safely chain hotfixes together.
; Hotfix chaining involves installing multiple hotfixes without rebooting between each installation.
; Without this tool, the only supported method is to reboot after each hotfix installation.
;
; The QChain.exe tool has the following benefits:
;    It increases uptime for servers because computers are not being rebooted between each hotfix installation.
;    It allows faster installations of multiple hotfixes on a single computer.
;    It is a solution that works on both Windows 2000 and Windows NT 4.0.
;
; Chaining Hotfix Installations Without QChain.exe Is Not Safe

There are 3 hotfixes in the 'bin\wnt5_x86-32' folder;
KB883667.7z, KB888111.7z, KB921401.7z

If I expand svcPack.IN_ I see

[Version]
Signature="$Windows NT$"

[SetupData]
CatalogSubDir="i386\hotfixes"

[ProductCatalogsToInstall]

[SetupHotfixesToRun]

I was suprised to see they weren't mentioned here. Also the folder i386\hotfixes doesn't exist.

I did locate newdev_SP1.dll which is inside KB883667.7z inside the I386 folder, but couldn't find it's accompanying KB883667.CAT file.

But then how were they integrated ? Were they slipstreamed ? Can a hotfix be slipstreamed ?

And won't that be a problem as my memory is hazy, but if I remember well Microsoft said qChain.EXE had to be applied before any other hotfixes.

Thanks

devPath.EXE problem

null@example.com (ikbeneenlul) — Sat, 11 May 2013 19:03:56 +0000

WinXPProSP1, no visual output when devPath.EXE runs yet disk activity.

After 1st user login DevicePath contains:

%SystemRoot%\Inf;C:\WINDOWS\system32\1025;C:\WINDOWS\system32\1028;C:\WINDOWS\system32\1031;C:\WINDOWS\system32\1033;C:\WINDOWS\system32\1037.........

When devicePath is run ( after install )

like this devPath.EXE "C:\D" currentDir is enumerated !
like this devPath.EXE C:\D seems to work ( but still not in preSetup ).

Replaced devPath.EXE in preSetup.CMD with:

@echo off &title %~n0 &color 0B &setlocal enableExtensions enableDelayedExpansion

...

set "devicePath=%%systemRoot%%\Inf" &for /d /r "%systemDrive%\D\" %%? in (

"*"

) do set "devicePath=!devicePath!;%%~?" &(echo(%%~?)
::
if "!devicePath:~8097,1!" neq "" (
::
echo.DevicePath maximumlength exceeded.
goto :error ()
)
set "devicePath=!devicePath:~0,8097!"
reg.EXE add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion" /t REG_EXPAND_SZ /v "DevicePath" /d "!devicePath!" /f ||goto :error ()

Any ideas ?
Thanks,

DPBase Update Checker issue

null@example.com (mikedcc) — Tue, 05 Feb 2013 17:56:34 +0000

When trying to update the DPBase via the update checker, I receive the error message that the driver pack is unavailable. It does this on all the driver packs. This occurs when running the program as administrator and running in XP SP3 compatibility mode. Any Suggestions?

Will DP BASE ever go open source?

I'd like to help (I have some VB experience) if I can.

How to modify batches to work from different folders?

null@example.com (johnye_pt) — Mon, 03 Dec 2012 13:59:44 +0000

Hi. I'm building a CD that contains CD\WXPP (normal XP), CD\WXPN (nLited XP) and CD\WXPS (nLited XP + DriverPack Mass Storage 11.11). For that to work I copied the I386 folder from each CD folder to the root, renamed each one to the same names above (WXPP, WXPN, WXPS), patched SETUPLDR.BIN, TXTSETUP.SIF and boot file accordingly and used cdshell as boot loader.

They all install fine in Virtual PC except for WXPS because the drivers/files/folders are not where the batches expect them to be. If I make an ISO of the WXPS folder (all files/folders in root as expected) it installs fine, because I can see the progress bar at the beginning of the GUI mode and at first boot.

I already know that CD\WXPS\I386\presetup.cmd and CD\WXPS\OEM\DP_Install_Tool.cmd must be edited, but I don't know if there is any other file I should edit. So far I made the following changes to the 2 batches, but with no success (no progress bars during installation).

CD\WXPS\I386\presetup.cmd and WXPS\presetup.cmd, added 1 line after the SET command:

SET TAGFILE=\OEM
FOR %%i IN (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y) DO IF EXIST "%%i:\CD\WXPS\OEM SET CDDRIVE=%%i:\CD\WXPS & GOTO DPsFound
FOR %%i IN (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y) DO IF EXIST "%%i:%TAGFILE%" SET CDDRIVE=%%i:& GOTO DPsFound
:DPsFound

CD\WXPS\OEM\DP_Install_Tool.cmd and WXPS\OEM\DP_Install_Tool.cmd, added 1 line before the last IF:

FOR %%i IN (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y) DO (
 IF Exist "%%i:\OEM\bin\un7zip.exe" SET "DPLoc=%%i:\OEM" & Set "M=2"
 IF Exist "%%i:\$OEM$\$1\D\"   SET "DPLoc=%%i:\$OEM$\$1" & Set "M=1" & %%i
 IF Exist "%%i:\CD\WXPS\OEM\bin\un7zip.exe" SET "DPLoc=%%i:\CD\WXPS\OEM" & Set "M=2"
 IF "%M%">="1" GoTo Found)

Any help would be very appreciated

Can DP BASE do this?

null@example.com (Damnation) — Sat, 17 Nov 2012 17:08:51 +0000

Regarding the Kernel Mode Driver Framework SYS files,

wdfldr.sys
wdf01000.sys

can I get DP BASE to compress and add these to I386 folder without it adding any entries into txtsetup.sif?

KTD DevicePath

null@example.com (wimb) — Thu, 08 Nov 2012 09:24:40 +0000

In MassStorage DriverPack a lot of folders have been merged in v 11.09 and newer to reduce the overall filepath length.

However, when using the KTD option then the DevicePath is NOT reduced.
See key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
%KTD%\M\AD occurs 20 times and %KTD%\M\L occurs 29 times and %KTD%\M\H occurs 30 times

Is it possible to improve setting the DevicePath for the KTD option
such that each folder occurs only once so that indeed the DevicePath length will be reduced ?

Thanks

DP Finisher getting stuck

null@example.com (mcollis) — Fri, 02 Nov 2012 11:56:26 +0000

I've slipstreamed all of the driver packs available onto a windows xp disc and have discovered that when using method 2, the driver packs finisher is finishing but not sending the teminated signal to the OS to allow it to continue to start on the first run.
Checking the log it is completing all ok just not closing the final part.

Are there any suggestions?

how can i ?

Multiple drivers (sys files) under one HRWID

null@example.com (alecuba16) — Sat, 22 Sep 2012 20:48:33 +0000

Hello!!

I have a motherboard that is strange it has Nforce 630A but it's incompatible with currently driver in driverspack masstorage 12.06, this has included Nforce 630 drivers, not 630A.

The id that i need have two drivers is :

SCSI\NVIDIA__Raid_Disk________="nvrd327r"
SCSI\__NVIDIA_______Raid_Disk="nvrd327r"
SCSI\NVIDIA__Raid_Disk_20_____="nvrd327r"
SCSI\__NVIDIA____Raid_Disk_20="nvrd327r"
*NVRAIDBUS="nvrd327r"
*NVRAID20="nvrd327r"

I need one for all the rest of Nforce's with nvrd327r and for my nforce 630A one custom nvrd327rcustom.

How i can do that?

Many thanks!

BASE1006 Mass+Chip1206, nLite w/NOdrivers: 0x7B Dell Inspiron1525 Sata

null@example.com (OldB) — Tue, 14 Aug 2012 13:56:46 +0000

I suspect that I have made a "schoolboy error" as it was my first attempt - apologies to the veterans - I assume that is a complementary phrase in your respective nationalities.

Started with XP SP3, nLite'd with XAble's July MS fixes but *no* drivers as per (many) directives...

I then used DPs_BASE1006 w/Mass+Chip1206 - log inc..

I *then* used the tool at http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/120444- … -with-gui/ to transfer the folder onto a bootable USB memory stick.

When I use the stick in a Dell Inspiron 1525 set to IDE-mode then it all works but when I try it with the BIOS set to Sata-mode the install fails as it tries to do the "final" boot.
The success with IDE-mode makes me *think* that I have got most of the basics right but obviously not.
The symptom of the failure is BSoD 0x7B after mup.sys and the HDD drivers listed before were iastor3 and atapide? The iastor3.sys is certain - I didn't make a note of the ide one. You suggest the following is attached ini + log :

What follows is DPsFnshr:

[HELP] Questions about DriverPacks failed install

null@example.com (youmadhuh) — Sun, 29 Jul 2012 21:08:01 +0000

Yeah sorry that the topic subject isn't really specifying, but.. I'll try to make it up with detailed post. So.. here's what I did:

First of all I copied all the files from my WinXP CD to my computer. The plan was to make an automated installation of WinXP which I would then put on an USB stick (since one of my computers - HP mini computer - doesn't have a DVD-ROM). So what I did was downloading the Service Pack 3 and critical updates, so I could add them to nLite. And then I adjusted all the settings in nLite. Then I got the *.iso file, and from there I copied all the files to a folder. Then I googled for a DriverPacks software tutorial, and found this:
http://www.raymond.cc/blog/how-to-make- … indows-xp/
Then I used this tutorial to make my OS fit for USB stick:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=janEB_wbiBM

So I went to installing, and it went fine. But, I had to wait awful long time, since when the WinXP files copying was finished, it was clear that it had started copying the DriverPacks files (I'm not sure how it would be best to describe - it's the blue screen when installing, and the files which were being copied were shown on the right side, down of the screen). And after that was finished, it continued with the installation where I had to insert the CD key and so on - but since everything was automated by nLite, there was nothing I had to do. And then it was finished. So I thought that my OS is ready to go - since I thought that the DriverPacks software already installed my drivers and there was nothing I had to do. But came out that there was 0 drivers installed. And that was umm.. strange.

I know you probably want which version I am using, what are the specs of my HP PC, what driverpacks did I download, and so on. So there we go:
- I'm using DriverPacks BASE 10.06.
- I'll copy the specs from EVEREST:

Motherboard:
CPU Type: DualCore Intel Pentium E2160, 1800 MHz (9 x 200)
Motherboard Name: Hewlett-Packard HP Compaq dc7800 Ultra-slim Desktop
Motherboard Chipset: Intel Bearlake Q35

Display:
Video Adapter: Intel(R) Q35 Express Chipset Family  (384 MB)
Video Adapter: Intel(R) Q35 Express Chipset Family  (384 MB)
3D Accelerator: Intel GMA 3100

Multimedia:
Audio Adapter: Analog Devices AD1884 @ Intel 82801IB ICH9 - High Definition Audio Controller [A-2]

If you need more details on my computer's specs, let me know!

- I downloaded the following driverpacks:
http://driverpacks.net/driverpacks/wind … cs-b/12.06 - since it has 12 Intel graphics drivers
http://driverpacks.net/driverpacks/wind … cs-c/12.06 - this one has 5 Intel graphics drivers
http://driverpacks.net/driverpacks/wind … pset/12.06 - this one has 120 Intel chipset drivers
http://driverpacks.net/driverpacks/wind … nd-a/11.11 - this one has 1 unidentified driver, thought it might be Intel's
http://driverpacks.net/driverpacks/wind … nd-b/11.11 - and just in case I added this one too, in hope that maybe there would be a driver that would suit with my audio card
So that's five packs - the whole XP installation grew to 1,79 GB, as my USB stick shows - so that's probably the reason why it copied the files for so long.
As you saw I downloaded the driverpacks based on what was my part: for example, I have Intel Bearlake Q35 chipset, so I downloaded chipset pack that included Intel's drivers. I'm not sure if I made everything correctly, or if I've understood the aim of this program correctly. So is this program meant for installing drivers automatically, and I really had to download all the driverpacks, which suited for me, and DriverPacks software will see itself, which drivers are actually needed from the Intel's 120 chipset drivers?
So.. as I mentioned before, there were no drivers installed - I didn't see nothing installed in program files. Is there something that I have to do myself, so it would install drivers automatically?
If there was something that I actually did wrong, let me know. If the solution is simple, then I could just format my drive and install Windows again, since it doesn't take very long, and I've got other stuff to do too, while it's installing.
But if the solution isn't simple, then I could just start installing drivers manually - BUT, as I can see under 'My Computer', my C drive shows that 2,65 GB out of 74,5 GB is used - BUT, under C drive, there are three folders: Documents and Settings (~10 MB), Program Files (~70 MB) and WINDOWS (~1 GB). So that's 1,65 GB lost somewhere. I guess that DriverPacks copied the driver packs on to the hard drive, but where are they located? That's like 1,5 GB lost somewhere.
This topic says that I should include some files:

Prompt for manual installation of driver

null@example.com (xp_user) — Wed, 04 Jul 2012 12:08:00 +0000

I don't know if this is a bug or it is normal but i am receiving a prompt to install manually a driver during the installation of windows xp from USB drive.

I am using DriverPacks Base to integrate the mass storage driver pack in my Windows xp source files because otherwise the setup doesn't recognize my internal drives.
I then create a installation USB using the program WinSetupFromUSB and then i try to install windows xp SP3 on laptop Toshiba Satellite. When it reach the stage for start installing devices i receive this message:

"The file 'iaStor.sys' on Intel Matrix Storage Manager Driver is needed"

and i have to manually search for the driver on the usb drive.

It is not a big problem but isn't suppose the setup to install this driver automatically?

Where driver packs are decompressed during installation?

null@example.com (xp_user) — Wed, 04 Jul 2012 07:24:38 +0000

Hello,

I want to ask in which directory the driver packs are decompressed during the installation of windows xp from USB drive? Can i set a directory where driver packs to be decompressed when integrating them in the source with DriverPacks Base?

Thanks!

My PC's driver included or not.

null@example.com (fahadnq) — Sun, 03 Jun 2012 07:01:13 +0000

How Can I check that this driver pack include my PC's specific driver or not.
