if the proxy switch is not specified it still imports them from IE and will log an error on failure, same as before.
however the command line will override imported settings.

apparently the people who need this proxy support are not useing a standard CERN proxy, for example ISA Server .
due to limitations in Autoit this may (still) not work for them IE Only CERN proxy servers are supported by Autoit
so the problem may be with Autoit and not with a failure to import the settings

@chiners_68 could you post your log file so we can see if the space did interfere?

me too...

well if we can belive what we see. The "CAUSE" (or the why if you will) is listed by MS above.

I am almost done putting it back in. (the hard part was finding the old 7zip file (thanks Jaak))

apparently we used to slipstream kb883667 and then stopped installing it - but never stopped uninstalling it...

i am considering installing it again...

another discovery apparently support for kb883667 is already written into base however for some strange reason it was added around base ver 6.06 and dropped around version 6.08 i don't know why...

so i will re-enable support for kb883667 in RC3 - please let me know if it is also needed for xpsp3

Release Candidate for DriverPacks Base is available

Are you Tech enough?

Added XP SP3 (RC1) support.

Fixed the code that caused the nested folder error in method one when QSC was off  (the \D\D\ problem)

Corrected the M1 bug that added the $OEM$ folders and finisher files when only mass storage textmode was selected. If only textmode is selected then these files and folders are not needed.

Corrected the M1 bug that did not copy the INI files for the packs to the \$OEM$\$1 with the finisher files.

Corrected - needs an extra " added at the end of the line for BusExtenders.Load line in mass storage module for BartPE

Added support for HJW update packs (similar to RyanVM update packs)

Added a fix for the Setupold.exe problem
when an XP repair-setup was run on a machine originaly loaded with Driverpacks M2 drivers then setup would fail with the error cannot create setupold.

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"


A new method for Chipset? stay tuned to see.

please test everything!!!!

I feel confident it is solid - but I can only do so much testing on my own. 
Please read the topic, because it has some info about why there are changes.

For those of you willing to test,
this is the link to DPs_BASE_801RC2

I did a little digging regarding kb883667

Description;     Windows XP Setup program may stop responding during video driver installation
When an OEM performs a factory installation of an OEM version of Microsoft Windows XP, or when you use a Sysprep image to install Windows XP, the Setup program may stop responding during the video driver installation process.
CAUSE
This problem occurs because of a problem with the Video.inf file. If a driver is signed, but the driver does not include an .inf file that describes child devices, such as monitors, the installation may stop responding.

OK
Makes sense... now, my discovery
The English version of this hotfix has the file attributes (or later) that are listed in the following table.
   Date         Time   Version            Size    File name    Service pack level
   ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
   12-Aug-2004  17:57  5.1.2600.1582     237,568  Newdev.dll   SP1QFE       
   12-Aug-2004  17:50  5.1.2600.2505     247,808  Newdev.dll   SP2QFE     

XP sp2  Reports 5.1.2600.2853
XP sp3  Reports 5.1.2600.3244

can we test this with xpsp3 using the rc version of base?
edit....
newer release candidate out http://dev.driverpacks.thesneaky.com/dr … 801RC2.exe
/edit...

if the updated Newdev.dll from sp3 fixes it i won't bother adding the hotfix.

ps the hotfix consists of;
replaceing the i386/newdev.dl_ with the hotfix version
and if we were living right createing the registry entrys @
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\HotFix\KB883667

This may also help with laptop installs...

Awsome
Thanks for the feedback! and files! I'll take a look at it...

read the tutorial in my signature

and checkout roguespears autoimage http://www.doitrightconsulting.net/foru … ic.php?t=3

it will use ryanvm and DriverPacks to create a ris install combine that with nlite and WPI and your done

i did not get to those zips fast enough any chance i can get a copy we may be able to use them, much as we do the HDA hotfix

ICH8M-E PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2828 does not seem to be covered by /I2

although i think there is a similar HWID in / I3 IAAHCI.inf
; ICH8M
%PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2829&CC_0106.DeviceDesc% = iaStor_mobl_Inst, PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2829&CC_0106

can we see your DPs_BASE.log and DPs_BASE.ini from the same directory as DPs_BASE.exe

a nulled driver is not copied to the 1386 folder and not added to txtsetup
but should still be available during pnp setup - the ini entries should only apply for mass storage text mode and the finisher for all others

si~

please read the read before you post below

that was much more clear! yes now i understand what you are asking

as far as i know there is no way to make an incd bootable, and even if you could it would quickly become fragmented.

i didnt say updateing an iso was lame i said incd was lame.
