Contrary to what you may think, everyone's opinion is valuable to us.  Half the time, someone just happens on this site by chance, posts a message like "why don't you guys do ABC instead of XYZ?"  And we're left reeling with the revelation "whoa, why didn't I think of that".  I realigned the graphics packs based on what I believed the best layout for the masses.  A lot of the other members of the team agreed, and now we're there.  I can definitely see your point.  And we'll take it under advisement.

You know, you can trim the DriverPacks to get rid of the folders you don't think you'll need (with the exception of dpms, modify that at your peril).  
Just decompress with 7zip, delete folders you don't want, recompress with 7zip.

Thanks for your input.  Although, I don't really understand what you're asking. 
So you liked the old way, where the FireGL and Quadro cards were supported by DriverPack Graphics C.  The problem with that setup, is that both ATI and Nvidia have released unified drivers for those class of cards so that dp would have shrunk in size (cool, I know).  But on the other hand, all the cards supported by the old DriverPack Graphics B have splintered their drivers, so we had to include more folders.  By the time we added all the folders, that dp would have ballooned in size to well over 150 mb compressed.  Too much for my liking.
This is just a re balancing. 
We have considered a DriverPacks D (or archive of 'D'erelict drivers).
We may do that in time.

In the interim, why not move your distro to DVD?  Media is cheap.

That's a good find, and one I need to address.  That HWID is supported in DriverPack Graphics A, not B.  And it's in nv4_go.inf, not the signed drivers.
I've got the Dell drivers and I'll compare them with what I've got.
Thanks for reporting this.

Awesome!  Thank you.

Did you try to integrate DriverPacks into your windows install CD/DVD?  Or did you just try to run them after windows was installed?

The changelogs are part of the nightly builds.  DriverPacks Finisher won't move those.

It's not a bad idea.  But only for the SAD option though.
I use my own autorun.inf, but Mark's right, make it newbie-proof but with the option to back out for pros.

Useful?  h*ll, it was indispensable !!!
I couldn't imagine what it would be like without your awesome tool!  Thank you!

We already use SimpleCDN for the distribution.  This distributed network is supposed to eliminate server sags.
Are you downloading from here: http://driverpacks.net/DriverPacks/overview.php

Try again, they dl'd fine for me.

OK, I'm on it!  8.10.2 coming up!

Well, that doesn't make any sense.  I just got done testing on HD3450 and it was perfect with 8.10.1 (only nvidia tweaks)
Oh, did you also use DriverPack Sound A nightly?  I removed the HDMI driver from DriverPack Graphics A because it conflicted with DriverPack Sound A \R3.
