Re: problem with iastor.sys (8 replies, posted in DriverPack Mass Storage)
well first off try Googleing irql_not_less_or_equal iastor.sys
Second it may be that the reference driver will not work on that particuar laptop, try the one from the OEM (Acer).
It could also be something besides the iastor driver... something that is crashing that driver...
Apparently lots of dell owners are having that issue too... first time it has been reported here...

Re: Installation Process for all-in-one Windows ISO with SAD stored on HDD (5 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
it seems like you have a handle on the basics....
let's explore a little deeper...
during windows setup M1...
M1 has a path limit of 4096 (way light of what DriverPacks needs)
M1 uses the suggested MS path method - in winnt.sif
M1 extracts the 7zip archives and cab compresses the drivers.
Since windows natively supports cabbed drivers...
Simply haveing them on the CD/DVD (ODD) enables the manual option of "Search removable media" ![]()
with SAD M1...
Most of the time Search removable media will be all you need,
search the ODD once and be done.
During windows setup or SAD with M2...
M2 uses the registry entry for the devicepath, allowing for a great deal more entries than M1 / winnt.sif
7zip gives better compression than Cabbing - but must be extracted before use ![]()
M2 will allow for all connected hardware to be detected and drivers installed properly during setup.
With SAD M2
drivers are extracted to the HDD first then runs DPInst.exe then runs the finisher.
If you had either a M1 OR M2 disc with you i would simply run DP_Inst_tool
Since doing that will update all the drivers, not just the missing ones ![]()
and if there are any known issues with the drivers then the finisher will address them ![]()
KTD does not call the finisher so some drivers may not install properly (video and audio mostly)

Re: Installation Process for all-in-one Windows ISO with SAD stored on HDD (5 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
np
1 use dpbase slipstream mass storage and all main packs with M2 no KTD
2 create a SAD M1 folder copy to HDD after install, run devpath to set the KTD path...
this is pretty well outlined and asked and answered in the other thread...
Cant make it any easier than that
I would like to State again KTD Most of the time is a waste of disk space,
because If you are installing hardware you are going to be at the machine anyway...
It is always desirable to check for a better driver at the time of the hardware install.

Re: Syntax error in txtsetup.sif - fails to upgrade windows (5 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
A better method for you would be to use SAD after the upgrade
...
Don't use a DriverPacks modified source for repair / upgrade.
If i am remembering correctly upgrade uses winnt32.exe which is not supported currently by DriverPacks...

Re: Syntax error in txtsetup.sif - fails to upgrade windows (5 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
Useing 'custom' instead of guirunonce is better for attended installs ![]()
- You will need to call the finisher manually / yourself with the 'custom' method
your info does not make sense... I refuse to belive your DVD is your C: drive... ???

"2. receive an error "INF file c:\XPSP3\i386\TXTSETUP.sif contains a syntax error."
It looks as though you called the setup from your HDD not the DVD...
I am 99% sure that is why you failed ![]()
Run it from an ODD (Optical Disc Drive, CD/DVD) and report back

We don't include vista drivers

The reason it takes longer is all of the included mass storage drivers will be loaded into RAM...
Whether they are needed or not... this is by MS design.
It is better to wait a minute and know your HDD will be found,
than to have to keep editing and reburning new PE Disks all the time ![]()
Remember BartPE is a recovery tool not an OS replacement...
the most important component of a recovery tool is the one that ensures that the HDD's are found ![]()

Re: Syntax error in txtsetup.sif - fails to upgrade windows (5 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
I am not surprized you did not find any documentation on this since
DriverPacks does not support attended installations... (Like a repair or upgrade install)
Other people ARE doing this though... it should work
- But it is not supported by DriverPacks.

Re: New feature in Windows 7 (35 replies, posted in Windows 7 Discussion)
Agreed
it is more of an extension of 'run program in compatibility mode'
- the "VM" would actually be running real-time as a component of Win7. Not in a window as a separate shell.
It's Brilliant really... If it works then any corporate objections to upgrading cease to be an issue.
XP could successfully be phased out.

Re: 7z vulnerabilty (10 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
I got called on the carpet for my closing statement above in a Very Nice and Well Worded e-mail...
I received a link to here http://www.ee.oulu.fi/research/ouspg/pr … 0/archive/
Apparently this was all started by a a college research paper that displays the POTENTIAL to exploit many archive programs like 7zip and many others.
i wish to publicly apologize, and withdraw the word 'rumor'. Since it is actually based on a published Thesis paper at a University.
that just leaves us with unsubstantiated
LOL (Show me a link to a SARC report or similar)
Don't ever hesitate to post a 'heads up' to a problem we may have - or potentialy could have.
We do want to know!
At this time there is just nothing for us to worry about since no known exploits actually exist in the wild ![]()
Once an exploit was exposed we could then evaluate any potential exposure from a bootable ROM (DVD) (probably NIL)
(it is usually at this point one of my fellow team members will shoot me down LOL)
I admire your persistence and professionalism Xabib... I hope we see more of you in the future~
Have a great day and please accept our warm welcome.

Re: 7z vulnerabilty (10 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
no offence taken... and many of our users are not native to English, I am used to that ![]()
the thing is we don't have any bugs...
Because of our unique usage of the 7zip application we are not exposed now,
nor would we be exposed in the future to any potential exploit of 7zip
- especially an unreported, unspecified or more likely a non existent one...
There is no benefit for us to update 7zip, and updating could cause issues with our apps.
Un7zip our custom app, is not distributed by 7zip.
and therefore is not nor would it be affected by your indicated reports...
(Un7zip is not a 7zip application - it is our own custom app)
Un7zip is extensively tested and known for a fact to be faster with the currently used 7zip dll...
I will not give that up without a valid reason.
No valid reason has been presented yet.
Since no info about the alleged exploit is available
it is most likely that it will not even affect our custom Un7zip app.
Upgrading will definitely increase the already lengthy extraction times during the DriverPacks installation.
We are glad you brought it to our attention!
But I see absolutely no reason to change anything...
At least not at this time... and certainly not based on unsubstantiated rumor.
