Re: [Solved] DP Base 8.05 works / 8.12.x "no files to extract" error (47 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
ha ha ha did you look at the changelog...
it is several pages...
thousands of lines of were changed in the code. (needle in a haystack)
I still don't know if your DVD is a SATA device...
here is what intrigues me now that we know it is un7zip complaining.
un7zip is in the same location as the packs... it can find the program but not the packs... hmmm...
let's take a look at presetup.cmd if there is a problem that is DriverPacks related it would have to be in that file.
presetup.cmd is the file that runs during WinPE (the portion of setup you are having trouble with)
and it calls un7zip during WinPE and is the only part of DriverPacks that is active during WinPE phase of the install

Re: fake setup call himself instead original "setup.exe" - Setup Abort (43 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
Yeah that is exactly what i was thinking...
his presetup.cmd file is two years old...
he downloaded a very old torrent, and does not have a legit copy of the OS...
at least he had the good sense not to admit it ![]()
an therefore it is an unsupported issue. this is reinforced by the fact he has no clue about DriverPacks.

When you used DriverPacks BASE to install the DriverPacks into your source files, a log was created in the same folder as DriverPacks BASE...
I wish to see it. You can search your hdd for the file name. ![]()

Re: [Solved] DP Base 8.05 works / 8.12.x "no files to extract" error (47 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
I never got the answer to the questions,
- "Is your ODD SATA or IDE" (ODD, Optical Disk Drive - Yours is a DVD I believe in this case...)
- nor "do you have any card readers installed" - although the hwids do tell the tale on this one...
![]()
- You have YET to tell us how far into the install you get.
We don't even know which stage you are failing at...
Textmode, WinPE, Gui.
Or how far into that portion of setup the error occurs.
Or if the window has a title.
You most certainly did not provide all of the information you possibly can.
You didn't even post all the requested info...
we can not continue without you providing the info we specifically request...
IE the ball is Still in your court, not ours.
We are thinking about you and won't leave you stranded...
We want you to win! and we want to know why it failed for you!
i have a thought.... put the SATA 1 HDD and SATA 2 HDD on different controllers and let me know...
are you certain that that "there is nothing to extract" is the EXACT wording of the message and no other clues are offered.

Re: [SLV] Mobile Intel® 4 Series Express Chipset Family (13 replies, posted in DriverPack Chipset)
OK the info is correct in the changelog for mass storage
- [I4] Matrix Storage 09/12/2008,8.6.0.1007
in the D\M\I4 folder
I wrote a tool recently to dump the info directly out of the packs and into the php format we need to update the page.
(writeing a thousand lines of php by hand from info in the 166 folders / inf files is a little tedious. that is how Wim used to do it - that guy can type up a storm
)
it appears the tool i wrote has skipped a few infs / folders in mass storage...
I will check that out right away thanks for posting

This issue was fixed years ago... and this thread is over two years old.

Re: fake setup call himself instead original "setup.exe" - Setup Abort (43 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
Here is an easier version of the instructions...
Use a repair disk that Does Not have DriverPacks added and you will not have this issue.
DriverPacks does not currently support attended installations (like a repair)
- If you can follow instructions like the ones posted above, it is possable.
- (it is still not supported... but it will work)
Hint:
There is only one way that you can do a repair with an unmodified DriverPacks slipstreamed disc...
IF the only pack you selected for your slipstream was the Mass Storage Textmode checkbox. ![]()

We won't have to stop making packs...
They will stop releasing updated drivers, and there just won't be anything to do...
Vista DriverPacks exist here in this forum already
(thanks to Muiz and Shahed - well done guys!)
x64 support is still under consideration but it is definitely not a priority.

Re: - files left in C: drive (8 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
I use the MassStorage v9.01.R3 because it has the VirtualBox Bug Fix.
And MassStorage v8.05 i can't use because on same new PC's & Laptop's i get a Blue Screen because the drivers are to old
I use only the MassStorage & LAN & WLAN Driver Packs the other drivers i can than be download directly from the Internet.
I would love to see more final version of this 3 Driver Packs in my option this 3 are the most important Packs.But don't get me wrong i now that making this Packs is time intensive work i only suggesting it would be a good idee to make this 3 Packs the TOP priority Packs
Outbreaker the response below is not aimed directly at you.
- You are a good friend of DriverPacks.
- You have stated clearly that you DO appreciate the amount of work involved!
It is aimed at the masses, because we get this type of question a lot!
Thank you for your personal contributions to DriverPacks, and your assistance to the team!
They are the top priority...
Sorry for this rant outbreaker.
Everybody wants to bitch that the packs don't get updated but NO ONE volunteers to update them.
You guys need to thank God that mr_smartepants and JakeLD update them at all.
Seldom are people nice or appreciative and everyone wants to tell us how they think it should be done.
It is REALLY ANNOYING when we get a post 5 minutes after a major driver (like nvidia) is updated.
We already know... It is what we do. furthermore this type of a post implies,
"Why the heck have you slackers not gotten this in a pack yet! You had better get to work on it now!" .
The most annoying part is nobody wants to step up and help do the work.
(I am always tempted to ask "Well why haven't YOU added it yet!")
Just once i would like to see a post like:
I added this driver to DriverPack name in my local copy and it works, this is what I did...
(actually, I have seen that once or twice
)
If we had a few posts like that or a few more people willing to do some work it would not take months to do.
you would think that with a million downloads a month that we could find more than two people who are willing to help adding drivers...
If we had as many people adding drivers as we had asking why they are not updated we could release all the packs weekly.
If you are not part of the solution then you are part of the problem.
To conclude: (regarding how long it takes to release).
- If you have not volunteered to be on the team then sit down and shut up.
PS Outbreaker you have been added to the testing team too, for showing some respect. ![]()
thank you! ![]()

Re: - files left in C: drive (8 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
You are using Nightly packs... this is normal and expected.
There will be some stray files when using any nightlies.
Test packs are not for production machines...
Since they are for testing only it does not matter.
In Fact it should be a reminder to you to double check everything worked...
@outbreaker
this is NOT a bug... IT IS BY DESIGN.
It tells us when non testing team members have been using the nightlies for purposes other than testing.
(Donors like dnoiz are automatically on the testing team)
In other words your report has told me you are using files you have not been authorized to access.
and you don't have access to the thread that discusses the details about the test pack(s).
(when you are sneaking cookies out of the jar don't complain about the flavor
)
IE you can't use the word BUG related to test files if your not on the testing team,
Since you don't have access to the details associated with the nightly packs.
![]()
At the same time I do greatly appreciate you taking the time to report your results!
although you did not mention whether or not it worked ![]()
Do Not Use nightlies for anything except testing...

Is the ODD sata or ide?
do you have any card readers installed?
It might be a good time to show us the HWIDS, at least from the mass controlers if not all.
PS it is OK to get frustrated... just don't shoot the messenger... ![]()
I will also admit it if there is a flaw in the program or packs
.
I will also add code to save someone else from your issue, if it is possable
