first you should see a popup when the packs extract

then
dpinst.exe runs and it logs to the screen (in the blue window several thousand lines and takes a few minutes) .
it will list stuff like:

INFO:   RETURN: DriverPackagePreinstallW  (0xE000020B)
INFO:   Preinstalling 'e:\\d\c\i\xp\e727505.inf' ...
INFO:   ENTER:  DriverPackagePreinstallW
INFO:   Looking for Model Section [INTEL_SYS]...
INFO:   No matching devices found in INF "e:\\d\c\i\xp\e727505.inf"

if you see lines like the above scrolling by it is working !

if the dpinst file wasn't found it would have paused and put a message up like          DPINST.exe doesn't exist
since it did not pause and give an error i can only assume it worked correctly

jeff

the finisher deletes the files and creates a runonce entry to delete itself after you reboot - that is normal.

dpinst should have run just before the finisher did... there whould have been a window visible while it ran for a few moments...

i added two debug lines to the cmd file to help you... please use the code below in your DP_Install_Tool.cmd for a test run

DP_Install_Tool.cmd code
