			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>if you want all your files in $OEM$ you will have to switch to method one. </p><p>Method one is considered obsolete. it has a path limitation of 4096 characters which we exceeded long ago.<br />it also cab compresses the files which takes up a larger amount of disk space (7zip=300meg - cab=500meg) <br />it takes a few hours to extract and them cab them the first time (with QSC=ON you will not have to cab them a second time).<br />This also causes windows setup to copy the drivers during textmode and is quite a bit slower than copying them during winpe.<br />&nbsp; &nbsp;but... this <em>would</em> put all your files in the $OEM$ folder.</p><p>with method two the drivers are put in OEM because we don&#039;t want them copied during textmode, so they are not in $OEM$.</p><p>I would respectfully suggest you not fool with it and just accept the new OEM folder we create... its the best solution and has been in use for years and tested by thousands of users - (if it ain&#039;t broke don&#039;t fix it).</p><p>if you remove the entries from winnt.sif then the install may hang asking about unsigned drivers...<br />if you are not doing an unattended install this is probably not a big deal since ther are only a handfull of drivers that we know of that need these entries - and even that handful will only gripe if the hardware is actualy present in the system.<br />(since it&#039;s an &#039;attended&#039; install you are expecting it to stop for user input anyway what is one more dialog box when your doing a repair?...)<br />these entries can not be created by any other method. (they aren&#039;t registry entries, they are windows setup parameters /&nbsp; switches)</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Hi,after integrated driver with DriverPacks, there is a folder named OEM, I wonder what&#039;s the function of this folder, and how can I move all the files under the OEM folder to the $OEM$ folder? I want to merge the two folders. </p><p>Do I need to change some other settings after moved?</p><p>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />and the winnt.sif file</p><p>If I need to enable the repair function, have to remove the [Unattended] option, </p><p>[Unattended]<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; NonDriverSigningPolicy=Ignore</p><p>this two options will be gone, so is there any bad effect if remove these two options?</p><p>if do need these two, how to convert the two into reg or some other method and add it into system when installed.</p><p>Thanks!!!</p>]]></content>
