Hi
if you really want them, use 7zip and unpack the driver pack files you find oem folder, and then put the D folder where you want it in $oem$.
I doubt that the packed files do any good when you put them in there...

unpacking during presetup saves space, and copying the unpacked files actually takes longer than unpacking them.

why does it have to extracted to the harddrive?
isn't it that it has been integrated into the i386 dir?
can it get deleted automatically when the first logon?

I guess I wanted to have the OEM in the $OEM$ so I didn't have to copy the OEM folder manually to the root of every computer I wanted to install WinXP onto. Installing from a USB key is sweet stuff thanx to Driverpacks and RVM.

The OEM directory should be at the root of your disk. The $OEM$ directory is used for other unattended stuff. Method 2 uses an OEM dir at the ROOT of your disk.

I'm sorry, I should have mentioned that I was installing from a USB key. I put the $OEM$ direction I created in the i386, so it copies the OEM directory which is inside the $OEM$\$1\ to the root on the partition I am installing the OS on to.

I never got method 2 to work the way I needed any other way.

Sorry for not being clearer.

I used method 2. I created a folder called $OEM$ and a folder within that called $1. I then copied the method 2 OEM into $1 and that was it.

i am confused
why you copied the method 2 OEM into $1 ?
isn't the integration work finished after there's a OEM in the root of the xpcd?
what else should i do when there's a OEM folder in the root of the xpcd?
thank you
