@OverFlow

To clarify: can you compare again http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic. … 151#p32151

Setupreg.hiv does match textmode only.

First reboot does require addional settings.

This works here: a edited setupreg.hiv and txtsetup.sif

I built it and have it included in the head revision (my local). I am working on the CDOB PnP fix and hope to get that out soon. Would be nice to get some feedback on the alpha on the team forum... I can only assume no news is good news .

The filepath problem only affects the current builds of DriverPacks BASE. SAD and SAD2 utilities are unaffected.
Jeff's right, once we get the new devpath built it will solve all our problems.

Sounds like you are heading in the right direction now...

Welcome to DriverPacks.net

PS if you have slipstreamed DriverPacks into your install you already have SAD in your hands. Just run "DP_Install_Tool.cmd" from the OEM folder . SAD is automatically included so you can update any NT5 platforms ( 2k, XP or 2k3) just by inserting the install disc and running the script. You can even put SAD on a thumb drive if you please .

PSS SAD stands for "Stand Alone Drivers" and uses Microsoft's DPINST.exe as its engine.

I'll just make a small pack for usb barcode scanners, usb cardswipes, etc, that would be plugged in later. And those use simple drivers.
And then I'll play around with SAD.

Re: Unknown devices

null@example.com (OverFlow) — Fri, 24 Jun 2011 22:31:59 +0000

Agreed run SAD at time of deployment

the only exception to this might be the monitor pack... HID would be pushing your luck.

If you still have users adding an external modem (say for use as a fax) then perhaps the 3rd party DriverPack for modems.... not many people use modems anymore.... can't imagine you really might need to do this

Truely there is no good reason to use KTD... SAD is 1000 times better. The only reason KTD still exists is for nostalga, it was an original feature of BASE and over the years we have come to realize it sucks... Some things sound really good in theory, but don't work in the real world. I have left it there purely for sentimental reasons .

It will work for VERY BASIC drivers (like a monitor driver)
It will absolutely fail at advanced drivers like Graphics and Sound (that require coinstallers).
If you need the chipset pack ... then you have installed a new motherboard right? then you absolutely need SAD.

KTD is dead, Long live SAD!

KTD wastes HDD space and causes other problems during setup. Your best bet is to install the Third Party DriverPacks post-setup using our SAD utility here:

Re: Unknown devices

null@example.com (tool_311) — Thu, 23 Jun 2011 21:35:55 +0000

You are correct. It's a bit much as is.
I think I'm just going to use KTD on a few 3rd party ones, since those devices aren't plugged in during setup.

Re: Unknown devices

null@example.com (OverFlow) — Thu, 23 Jun 2011 20:36:13 +0000

Is there any particular reason you used them all?
For example you would have to have a VERY exceptional reason to include DriverPack LAN-RIS 1011
Why have you chosen to do KTD? I can't think of a single good reason to select KTD...

Re: Unknown devices

null@example.com (tool_311) — Thu, 23 Jun 2011 19:31:59 +0000

Hmm, that's probably the reason then. I used, like, all the packs.

And didn't find a dpinst.log

I'll try taking out some drivers.

There's no way for us to tell what happened unless you post your logs.
There is a known bug in XP where if you have too many DriverPacks, the filepath length exceeds the limit and no drivers are installed.
This is in our FAQ: http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic.php?id=4446
Please read the "read before you post" linked in my signature then post all the required log files.
