so you added it the "old way", i don't recommend that you add the DriverPack MassStorage BartPE plugin and the old way at the same time. One or the other is safer unless you know for a fact your HWID is not duplicated.

I don't have DriverpacksPacks.net enabled and the iastor drivers are the only ones inside the SCSIAdapter folder, so, on my case there shouldn't be any problem.

Anyway, I think you are right. A plugin is much better. I even tried to do one, but I failed several times because of using the wrong drivers. Anyway, now that it works, I will try the plugin again.

I was forced to move on with newer versions of PE because of UEFI bios but a good UBCD4Win ISO is still worth it's weight in gold.

I am further impressed by the detailing of what worked for you. Your experience may help others.

Yes, that's why I'm posting here. I spent a lot of time looking in google for possible solutions. I tried several things and nothing worked, except by including the drivers from Fernando. The lesson here: Windows XP is discontinued, so intel won't release newer driver for this system; that's why a third party driver must be searched to support the new hardware. I guess creating a VistaPE or WindowsPE CD would be also a solution; they use either Vista or Windows 7 instead of Windows XP.

I used it for building a BartPE CD; however, it isn't a plugin. I just created a folder called: "iastor" under:
<PE_Builder_ROOT>\drivers\SCSIAdapter

then, I copied the driver files there. So, A the end everything looked like:
<PE_Builder_ROOT>\drivers\SCSIAdapter\iastor\iaahci.cat
<PE_Builder_ROOT>\drivers\SCSIAdapter\iastor\iaAHCI.inf
<PE_Builder_ROOT>\drivers\SCSIAdapter\iastor\iastor.cat
<PE_Builder_ROOT>\drivers\SCSIAdapter\iastor\iaStor.inf
<PE_Builder_ROOT>\drivers\SCSIAdapter\iastor\iaStor.sys
<PE_Builder_ROOT>\drivers\SCSIAdapter\iastor\TXTSETUP.OEM

Afterwards, I rebuild the iso image and the drivers were automatically included; no need of activating them under the plugins.

It's awesome that this fixed your issue and is why we don't close old topics.

I am duly impressed that you used search !

did you use this driver for windows install or for BartPE Plugin?

Thanks for helping us to help you

if we google  PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_8C03&CC_0106

We find stuff, like links to MSFN.ORG. ( We like MSFN )

Looks like DriverPack MassStorage version 12.x may work???
Fernando also has a custom driver that may work.
Jeff

Dear Jeff
Thanks a lot for the pointer to the drivers from Fernando. The Lenovo ThinkPad E540 I'm installing has the Storage controller you mention: PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_8C03&CC_0106

I tried a lot of things before getting with your post. Finally what worked for me was downloading the universal driver from fernando:
Universal 32bit Intel RST AHCI & RAID driver v11.2.0.1006 mod by Fernando

and copying it to: "drivers\SCSIAdapter\iastor". I didn't have to modify anything.

For the interested, I downloaded it from here:
http://www.smartredirect.de/redir/click … -k-CD.html

Mirror:
http://www.smartredirect.de/redir/click … -k-CD.html

It seems that the version 11.2.0.1006 is the last version for XP.

Best regards
Josef

Indeed.  That was a cool exploration of limits though!

any driver greater than the official RST 11.2 has yielded me "file corrupted" fatal stops in pre-partitioning textmode yet i have not tried every revision nor any of the 13.x branch.  Every one of the executables have been STORPORT based, and therefore should not work on anything less than Server 2003.

This offers another option. Exploring the limits

2003 Storport 5.2.3790.4163 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943295 works at XP SP3 files.
Copy and paste the file storport.sys to BartPE XP system32\drivers

BartPE loads the driver iaStorA.sys Version: 3.8.0.1111
And displays the hard disk connected to PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2929&CC_0106
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail … rodId=3449
This driver refers to Windows 2003.

Contrary Version: 12.9.0.1001
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail … ldID=23496
This driver refers to Windows Server 2008 and up.
BartPE complains iaStorA.sys as corrupt.
It's not compatible to 2003 storport.sys or another reason.

I don't like to go this way. As long as there are XP compatible drivers, use XP drivers.
If there are 2003 drivers only, this could work in future.

if it's in the pack then we DON'T want it in the "drivers" folder.

There were 3 drivers and several HWID's missing, including an oldie for one HWID (PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1209   ; 82551ER & 82559ER D101ER (Basic) labeled as "Intel(R) 8255xER PCI Adapter").  The collection is in ..\I\e

Am not certain how best for teamsoutheast to proceed.  Should the driver be removed from x:\PEBuilder\drivers\Net\-HereIsGood- first?

Do disable USB 3.0 or somehow select "legacy" (or the like) in BIOS/uEFI, it is not supported on NT5 (xp).  Avoid using those ports, too.
(edit May10:)  You might not need avoid using those ports.

Windows XP SP3 (incl. TabletPC & MCE - except Embedded) Extended Support by MS ended April 2014 (network connection ill-advised).

Without having visited that MSFN link you supplied yet, any driver greater than the official RST 11.2 has yielded me "file corrupted" fatal stops in pre-partitioning textmode yet i have not tried every revision nor any of the 13.x branch.  Every one of the executables have been STORPORT based, and therefore should not work on anything less than Server 2003.  For Server2003, an integrated WindowsUpdate or two may enable function yet i am skeptical.  It never hurts to ask though.

Actually, that should have already been included there.  DP_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32_1404011 has the proper differentiation in the .Ini to support XP & 2003.

Also, according to ChiefZeke, those 18.3 drivers were trouble-matic.   See http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic.php?id=6675

I thank you, all of you!

if you drop it into the x:\PEBuilder\drivers\Net\-HereIsGood-
and rebuild

cdob will correct me if that won't work .

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_153A&SUBSYS_220E17AA&REV_04\3&21436425&0&C8: Intel(R) Ethernet Connection I217-LM

Operating Systems: Windows XP Embedded
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail … ldID=22928

Yeah cdob and I both warned you that newer chipsets will be tough to support on NT5.

The link i presented above demonstrates how a user can force a driver to install for XP. that doesn't mean it will work, but it might. the example was for mass storage but the mechanics are the same. let us know.

The pertinent information was provided above. By you.   (the HWID's)

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_153A&SUBSYS_220E17AA&REV_04\3&21436425&0&C8: Intel(R) Ethernet Connection I217-LM

seems to be it, even Intel does not support NT5 platforms (officially)
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Search … on+I217-LM

it's possible a driver could be shoe-horned in place for PE LOL.

google the HWID or description for more info "PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_153A"

Thanks. I'm currently googling the HWID above trying to find the XP network drivers. If any mods/developers manages to find them please can you integrate them into your DP LAN Pack.
