Search options (Page 44 of 213)

OT post moved to "other" forum... the discussion is NOT DriverPacks related.

I like that last solution a lot...

DIR %%i: && IF EXIST "%%i:%TAGFILE%"

I'll get that out to the testing team in my next nightly

Moved to Feature Requests forum

um...   yeah...

That's a feature....

That is my story... and I am sticking to it .

Bug report is a wonderful idea!

I always take a serious beating on this pesky autoit GUI... oh well, live and learn.

A similar solution was posted here several years ago...
it was the first suggestion offered, reverse the drive search order...

It's not that common of a problem, and the various workarounds are easy enough...
It never really became a priority

this probably should have been posted in feature requests, not in feedback and support.

I'll take a look at the options presented and see what think is the best option and we will do some testing... Interested in helping us test?

DriverPacks depends on ALL of the included drivers being present... We don't add the included drivers to the packs. (why would we? they are already there ).

Also when testing don't screw with the files and services.... Prove the sh*t works first . KISS method.

Once you know it works then redo it and hack away at will... then if it fails you know where it went wrong .

I always use RVM Integrater for SP and patches (OnePiece's are quite nice)
I select my XP source and let RVMI make the copy for me.
the only thing i do with nlite is automate my install...
truthfully i do also use it to disable the language bar and put a My computer shortcut on the desktop.
I NEVER remove anything with nLite... it Always leads to issues... Always

remember onec you add the DriverPacks you will not be able to make any changes to your source.
(make a copy of your source prior to adding DriverPacks... add DriverPacks to the copy )

I know many of the guys personally... Galapo, Jclaz, Hilander999 and cdob are the best of the best and are still active... I can even contact them by telephone if neccesary... read what is there see how far you get if you have questions post them there... if you get no response let me know and i will see if i can get get one of the boys to answer you... Again what you want is not simple, it involves adding pages and pages of registry entries to your PE disc. It's not just a matter of adding the device driver... you must first add support for the HDAudio bus itself. I am fairly proficient with PE I coded the mass storage and LAN and WLAN plugins (with the help of the UBCD4Win team) but this is way over my head... the best i can do is make sure you get a response if that becomes an issue. Hilander is a good friend of mine and he started working on teh sound support for UBCD4Win this winter he had about two months in it and was in the neighborhood of 10 thousand lines of code / registry entries. Since your are not trying to support all sound cards but just need one you might only have to code a thousand lines to get what you want...

For me it would be easier to find a way to make and extra 40 bucks... 
But if you have 20 ~ 50 free hours to burn I am sure it can be done.
(yes it is really going to be that much work)

If you had an old soundblaster PCI card we could get you up and running in a couple of hours. HDA is a whole different story and a real PITA to make work, even in windows let alone in a Preinstallation Environment. remember in PE we do not have PnP... Text mode drivers only (16 bit drivers) that is why i said even if you do get it working the performance will be about 30% of what it would be in windows. So even if you do acomplish your goal you will most likely have lame / weak video and sound. IE if you would get 30 frames per second in windows you might only get 12 FPS in PE and choppy sound that would not be synced to the video. IF you were successful...

BartPE is NOT a windows replacement it was never meant to be... It is an installation and recovery tool.

You can update the included DriverPacks and BASE versions... Please update BASE first

Speaking of lots of posts on stuff... there are Hundreds of posts that say BartPE is not compatible with SP3... BartPE was last updated to use SP2... and you will get the best results using that version . PEBuilder has a static list of files it uses... that list is version dependent... That is also why slipstreaming drivers into your source will blow up your PE install. IE your txtsetup.sif gets copied but not the files that were added to the source. So you end up with references to files that are never copied to your PE disc. (your txtsetup is effectively corrupted) Again since PEBuilder is not reading and copying files based on entries in your txtsetup.sif, but rather copying from a static (internal) list of files that means that any updates will add files to your source and those files will never be copied by PEBuilder to your PE disc... leaving it corrupted, with references to files that do not exist.

If you read my notes on DISM in the site docs it clearly (or so i thought) explains how to add entire folder structures to an image...

ask if you have questons...

i don't use that tool so i can't tell you how it works

thanks for the follow up...

Can we please have the HWIDs too?

I understand much better now... Nothing to be ashamed of... the economy is not much better here...

I think your best bet to get the sound working is going to be at the 911 CD forum...
most of the real PE guru's hang out over there. I am only an apprentice PE guru .

did you check the serial number on the HDD with the manufacturer to see if it was still in warranty?

you can get a HDD for like 40 dollars... http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory … rder=PRICE
