Re: FAQ section update - Ultimate Newbie FAQ for 2008 - Hi! (5 replies, posted in Site & Forum Issues And Feedback)
AutoImage is written by a good friend of the DriverPacks RogueSpear (collaborative) and as such is the best choice in my opinion.
ther most popular lineup here is
Ryan VM - windows updates hotfixes and service packs
nLite - automate install, remove un-needed stuff, tweak windows settings (IE add "my computer" shortcut to destop)
DriverPacks - You are Here ---> X
WPI - Windows Post Installer - for application installation after windows setup (IE acrobat reader, flash player, Office, ECT...)
coming from a Linux background you are already able to think "outside the box" so you should have very few problems getting your head around this task.
Please just ask if you need anything
PS autoImage will not only give you a single interface for teh above apps but will also add RIS support to/for them

Helmi (and most of the team) is much better at writing than i am. Thanks Helmi.
I am a programmer/tech, not a politician/diplomat...
The diplomacy skill set is however "work in progress".
(is it too late to delete or re-word that last sentence? )
-----------
i would expect to find that each of those folders contains a driver for a different series of Canon printer... (IR, GP, LBP, FAX)
that may, or may not, be the case -
it is also possible that the driver you have is an upgrade/replacement for one of the existing folders - (a unified driver)
Have a great day and thanks for your continued support.

Re: Critical Error Failed to Cab Compress. Mass Storage Driver Pack. (18 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
I tried to duplicate this error and was not able to do so...
i first thought this may be a permissions issue with vista but helmi was useing XP...
then i thought it might be german source but englebert is obviously useing english US
the common denominator is not apparent to me ATM... still thinking about it though...
all three of us used QSC ON (Please try with qsc off, although this is unlikely to be the problem)
all three of us did not use a clean source (it looked like the $OEM$ folder existed in all three cases)
the mass storage INI is valid... no extra spaces or apparent typos. the smmpi file itself is valid.
I expected to find an extra space for the "TAG" entry in the mass storage INI... but no...
hmmmm...

Re: NVIDIA Geforce 8400M GS not properly recognized (16 replies, posted in DriverPack Graphics)
use the hwid's tool in my signature -
the format should be pci\ven not acpi/wec it may be that is is a subcomponent of the main hardware and installing that driver will fix both devices.

Re: [REL] [x86, 32 bit] ALL DriverPack's Repacked (246 replies, posted in 3rd Party DriverPacks)
Third party DriverPacks are edited and maintained by our users... that would be you...
the instructions on how to do that are stickied in this forum.
This pack has not been updated in two years if you don't do it - it probably won't get done at all.
I personally don't buy or recommend to my customers anything but HP printers so i have no interest in this pack at all.
If you would like it updated... feel free to add your driver and test it... then submit it here in a new thread
In order to do this you must have the printer to test the driver on... so far you are the ONLY one we know of who does have it.
Therefore you are the only one who can test it to see if it works.
if you were thinking of responding that you don't have the time why would you assume that we would. (we have lives too)

LOL... too funny - you mean you never read "read before you post" in my signature? ROFL
usually you can just Google them. you only need the first two parts ususally.
PCI\VEN_10b7&DEV_9200&SUBSYS_100010B7 =
Google VEN_10b7&DEV_9200 result = DeviceDesc= "3Com EtherLink 10/100 PCI"
Google PCI\VEN_10b7&DEV_9200&SUBSYS_100010B7 result = DeviceDesc= "3Com EtherLink PCI TPC NIC (3C900B-TPC)"
VEN = Vendor ID 10b7 = 3COM
DEV = Device model 9200 = Etherlink 10/100
SUBSYS = Remanufacurer or subtype / variation

each driver contains a changelog which is likely to be current
There should also be a post in the 3rd party DriverPack forum for each pack available although it looks like that pack is so old its post got retired...

Re: Dell D610/Mobility X300 Problems (33 replies, posted in Universal Imaging)
you could slipsrteam in the newer file to your source - or even "replace" the included driver
to do so you would only need to make a few changes (maybe none if your real lucky)
use makecab to compress them and place them in the I386 folder
verify that all the references in txtsetup and dosnet are updated (if needed) and add the files to the "force copy" section.
since this is syprep it may not work unless all the files have the same names as the originals. but worth a shot i figure...
let us know... thanks for your feedback
PS you might even get away with just overwriteing the one file

Re: NVIDIA Geforce 8400M GS not properly recognized (16 replies, posted in DriverPack Graphics)
you can (from device manager) view their hwids
right click, select properties - select the details tab - then Hardware ID's from the drop down menu...
Hardware is always matched to drivers by their HWIDS (that is the reason they exist)
(and is why we always have to hound people to include them with thier posts)

Re: Dell D610/Mobility X300 Problems (33 replies, posted in Universal Imaging)
Thanks for the log and your Input...
I am not sure what is next... thinking out loud here
does the dell driver have a setup.exe?
if so then we can use the finisher to call teh setup on first boot... that might work nicely
