please read the sticky... http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic.php?id=1139

TIA

there is a much more complicated way i could explain to you to do it manually
that would take pages of instructions

the above is straight forward and a 123 process (as it was designed to be)
Try the easy way first.

perhaps copy the current folder so you can compare them after.
if you really want the nuts and bolts of it - I will - be careful what you wish for

PS if you are looking for a simple plugin to learn the ropes with... This ain't it.

EP- yes my IM is in my profile... just be sure to tell me who it is so i dont decline you

the .sys file is renamed to the tag name
and the inf is not needed or used sisnce th inf info has been populated into the source files (txtsetup)

ther is a limit to the number of drivers that canbe added to an OS
2k has the smallest amount and 2k3 the most and xp is in the middle
we have not yet topped out for xp or 2k3 we hit the ceiling for 2k years ago and that is why so many are disabled for 2k if we dont it will BSOD...
IE to add a driver to 2k an existing driver must be disabled...

This is all thorughly documented in several places on the site.

again this file can not be maintained by a program there are too many quirks...
it takes me anywhere from weeks to months to train a noob on the mass storage pack...
ask the team...   You would have begun to beat your head against the wall just as Jaak did when he first started doing the mass storage pack. It's insane really. Things that should work fine just don't...
(search for Silly Cone hill or 3112 or silicon hill or 3124 and get a glimpse of insanity)
I am offering to keep you from pulling your hair out... all you have to do is accept

again the more we talk the more it seems you have laid the groundwork and in so doing motivated me...
it is simple matter for me to do this with the support of a team... and i know there is a handful of you guys
Skinlayers, detard, JakeLD, yourself, galepo and dome others that will fill in the gaps in my experience and provide test results...

your tool has inspired me, and i have cleared the "back burner" stuff i was working on...
you have made life easier for the team and myself
you have contributed to the greater good of the comunity

So allow me to help you now lets add the sysprep platform to base
with your existing dedication and a few testers we can make this happen,
and we can make sure it gets done in a world class fashion

and i dont even feel like i have to ask you if your on board - i because i jsut know you are

PS no... XP is always nt 5.1 (or build 2600)

PSS it may help if you add me to your IM, so we can expidite the exchange of info that is inevitable.
we can then summarize our findings in the forum for more consise reading by a user.

no i dont think it will ever be possable to have the mas storage ini generated by a program...
at least the result would not be as good as if it were done by hand...
IE we would get 20 posts a day about 000007b BSOD after first reboot...

there are too many things that only experience can provide the solution for...
(because they don't make sense or are inconsistent)
this is the key to what makes DriverPacks unique. anybody can put some drivers in a zipfile

and is why i belive the mass INI should be the source for your sysprep output...
this is in effect the same as stealing the bartpe code...
which is a path for me to explore for createing the sysprep output.
a slight mod to the bartpe code might not be that tough of a row to hoe...
perhaps most of the bartpe code is already appropriate for provideing the output

Was a log produced at %SystemRoot%\dpinst.log ?

there was an issue... i fixed it last year

I created a workaround useing a command line switch, but in the process of createing the workaround i fixed the problem and the command line switch was not neccessary, however it is still available.

http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic.php?id=2332

new command line switch by request  /proxy

Usage /proxy:"LocalProxy:Port"[,"Username","Password"]
examples
DPs_BASE.exe /proxy:"192.168.1.1:8080"
DPs_BASE.exe /proxy:"LocalProxy:8080","administrator","password"

SweeT.........     yay! [insert fireworks]

you know how important it is to have in place
I think it is an awsome thing - The one who helps the many - i tip my hat sir

Thanks for being on the team...

You're correct
The registry entry doesnt have this limit, and that is how we implement the search path with M2.

however i still think that a shorter path is more effecient / faster, even if more than 4096 is allowed...

RATS... A BUG REPORT... ARRRGH...

I have failed :sad: {sniff sniff} 

     Good Catch Ricktendo64... you are the DriverPacks hero of the day! [trumpets blare]

and it Looks like RC1 will not be a final

the code to be traslated is in the code box above.

Very well done helmi
- I am so used to your world class perfomance, I fear that I may forget to appreciate you in a post.

Agreed... no need to reinvent the wheel...

the mass storage ini is pre tweaked to provide the most comprehensive support available today...

Thanks to our dedicated team who have worked for untold hours massageing it towards perfection.

you may also not that several of the txt mode drivers have 'tag' entries. we use those tags to rename certain drivers taht would ordinarily be over written by a same name file...
