abdou,
you tried the file I emailed and that worked with AHCI enabled in BIOS?
I need the yes or no.

Re: XP on Toshiba Satellite P105-S6227 (7 replies, posted in Hardware)
Hi
we make these packs ready for slipstream.
However, these days, you can use a tool like DPinst.exe or Warmsnow's little program whic uses DPinst.exe and use the DriverPacks "post install" (driver install after setup).
Warmsnow's tool is in software forum.

graphics A,
NV4_go.inf has generic PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0398, so it should pick it up.
Did you use a slipstreamed DVD?
(have also looked at that sound driver and will include it in a testpack.)

Re: problems with latest mass storage driver pack (9 replies, posted in DriverPack Mass Storage)
nforce are difficult to work with. Many of the HWIDs stay same for new chips.
The standard TM worked for most, but last year we had to add more nforce.
So, now I have to figure out what we did, and why we thought it was for the best..

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27D8
The two got me no hits in my worksheet.
so, they was not included then, and I cannot blame muiz for that.

Re: Upgrade van W2K naar XP (7 replies, posted in Dutch)
hoi,
we spenderen sowieso al veel tijd aan DriverPacks, en ik vroeg me af of ik nu echt eerst een 2000 moet installeren an er dan een xp upgrade proberen over gooien.
Ik raadde method 1 aan, en dat zou moeten lukken aangezien setup zelf niks veranderd, maar met methode twee zie ik het niet zomaar gebeuren.
Ik kan er een uur of drie instoppen.. eerst met XP slipped met Method 1. (dat is een keuze die je maakt in DriverPacks BASE.)
drie uur later...
hehe.
setup 2000 stond er op, 2000 liep, en dan de upgrade met Method 1 streamed drivers in het laatje, en upgrade selecteren.
En dat loopt nog. (maar het loopt wel.. )
Als dat beeindigd is, 2000 er weer op, dan booten van die upgrade, en zien wat dat doet.

When I last worked on WLAN, I saw spotlight had failed to create output for ten broadcom drivers..
I suppose Broadcom changed layout of the INF, and the spotlight tool is not updated (and I cannot write VBs) ..
----------
well, erm?
When you add drivers you may find spotlight processed the "to be added" but lists no hardware..
So, the next util is this one, SED.EXE (fairly easy to find)
FAQ about SED. http://www.grymoire.com/Unix/Sed.html
The output is INF filename (with location in path), HWID
The output is therefore two rows, which can be pasted into the sheet.
Use it with this batch.
(the script is based on work by chud. I changed the SED lines quite a bit.)

you probably used same source and restreamed it.
The news page has a release candidate for Base which has better cleanup routines.

Re: [REQ] Onboard LSI MegaRaid SAS R.C., Fujitsu Siemens Primergy Servers (2 replies, posted in DriverPack Mass Storage)
Hi Karo, welcome to DriverPacks.
it looks good, and it works for you so we should include it, and you can probably help us include more like that..
Jeff, it is not the first time I think about splitting the servers out of mass DriverPacks..
When you look up how awful many LSI megasas drivers we do not include, you would see the sense in that, and LSI is not the only one.
On the other hand, having people do it for themselves and then share how they did it appeals to me.
(I wish I would know wether Karo read the the FAQ which we think of as reference txt for mass DriverPacks academy. )
Anyway, it is nice work, not a single duped HWID, and the exceptions work..
Adding many more like it would probably be h*ll for sysprep (megasas.sys in all of them).

Hi abdou,
I'll make us one with intel 7.5 ahci.
Bigbrit reported the current release worked in ICH 7 and ICH8 with AHCI, but when he added a hard drive it also went poof.. and that is not good.
I hope to find out what putting in intel iastor 7.5 will do for the AHCI mode in XP.

Re: Downloaded driver pack file sizes not valid (14 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
Hi
consider this.. IF DriverPacks BASE was to check hash, then users could not edit DriverPacks, and they can.
An online check? Even the update checker is optional. (you don't have to check before stream), and if we were to use the hash of a pack it would have to be online (not hardcoded in DriverPacks BASE which was done very very long ago, which required Base was updated each time a pack was updated..), and all hashes of all older packs would have to be online as well. And then what? Make Base tell user 'this' pack was edited/tampered with?
After that, what's to stop you from inserting a pack in the OEM folder? (which some users do.. because you don't have to stream.. you add a pack in the folder and presto, it will extract along with the other if the naming was done right.)
During streaming I would think 7zip will throw an error when the archive is invalid.
(If you replaced an archive.. it would throw an error during setup too, but I do not know if it would immediatly become apparent it was a bad archive.. files missing, perhaps.. maybe.)
btw, I once looked at a way to include the hash in the 'overview' page.

Re: ATIIDE.sys damaged (6 replies, posted in DriverPack Graphics)
yesterday, after reading this topic, I used base7.05.2 on the latest releases, and integration did not have error.
Before release, I had done that test.
I have again used 7052 streamed sources (with and without QSC.) and both burns had no issue on live installs of XP.

Re: ATIIDE.sys damaged (6 replies, posted in DriverPack Graphics)
quote;
For the avanced user;
Suppose you have already used DPsBase and then edit and repack your modified driverpack.
Well, then you MUST first delete the corresponding QSC subfolder. You can leave the other folders in QSC cache. Under normal circumstances, the released DriverPacks version numbering system will prevent an outdated cache from being used, but it is wise to delete it when test versions/updated testversion were downloaded and when you edit/repack DriverPacks.
Most team members give each interim "nightly" testpack a higher version number, but one has to pay attention.
With DPsBase 7.05.2 and earlier there is a peculiarity we recently discovered. Suppose you are using the very same Mass Storage Pack between slipstreams of the various Windows versions you have stored on Hard disk. You can slipstream all XP versions one after the other, and you will be fine, and the QSC cache saves time. HOWEVER. You should clear the QSC\Mass storage cache folder when you next want to slipstream a different Operating System.
Par Example; when you want to slipstream Windows 2000 after an XP slipstream, you should delete the Mass Storage sub-folders in QSC. That is also the case when you want to Slipstream Windows 2003 after XP (or 2000). This affects all users who turn QSC ON. (For Method one QSC had to be turned ON when you use Base7052 and earlier). This will be fixed in a new release of DPsBase. Tests with the NEW DPsBase betas no longer require that QSC is ON for Method 1, and OverFlow is working on some other nice cool features.
