I just checked the new pack 712.1 and those drivers are in the I1 folder and are an exact match for the files you posted . The were updated by Jaak/mr_smartepants on Oct 5 for pack 7.10 and appear to be the latest drivers where are you seeing the v14.32.0.4885

I wonder if repacking the driver packs with little or no compression would speed things up?

And I wonder where I replied to that question already before (because I know I did!).
Thing is, you have to know what will work faster:
Transferring the uncompressed files (lots of space!) from a relatively slow medium such as CD/DVD saving any uncompressing time or transferring only a fraction of that but having the CPU/RAM do some work decompressing.

In the end, this cannot be answered ultimatively because it depends on your system.
With fast CPU/RAM I doubt you'd gain anything.
Also, I do not know whether DMA already works when the DriverPacks are being extracted (guess no), so the copying process would already be slow on the bus and also take a huge load of CPU.

Not having tested this (search and see the other thread for further inctructions), I'd say compressed drivers is faster unless it's a really old system (even then bus speed and drive speed will also be slower).
