Major - you are on the testing team, are you not?  then it seems silly for me to have to ask you for your HWID's doesnt it?

We dont need or use descriptions of devices. we need (all of) your HWID's. Use the below link to obtain them.


save_hwids.exe

Create a new post in the correct forum (Chipset, Mass Storage, LAN, or whatever is appropriate for the request) with the title starting our as [REQ] - request for new driver to be added.

And a link to the driver that is the correct one for your platform.

PS the HWID you refer to seems to be for your 1394 adapter. (try the 1394 adapter drivers from the Manufaturer)

my suggestion would be replace the file (NTFS.sys) that is being reported as damaged with a known good version (possably from a working installation) and try again.

(PS Nlite may be modifying this file so don't run nlite after you replace it)

problem solved posting patch now

I'll get right on it.
it shouldn't be tough!

that will help except he has no video then...

mass needs added minimum and lan will remain as a problem till i get a little farther on the support of that

Jtdoom found an error in one of the PHP files on the server this problem should be gone now!

you answered your own question yes you did! DevPath.exe C:\

The 7.05.2 release fixes an error when slipstreaming a disk platform using Method One
a path issue / bug was reported in the following thread
http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic. … 036#p11036

The 7.05.1 Release fixes an undeclared variable error / bug that occured when useing method 1.
Reported by users  mario_buc  and  Xusen.

The 7.05 Release adds a function to create a redistributable Plugin for bartPE and addresses some Profile issues that occured when switching from one platform to another (IE Disk to BartPE or Multi to Disk ect...). We have also updated Thai language support - Thanks to SoKoOLz.

New in this release:

- Thai language support  (SoKoOLz).
- Some additional language updates
- BartPE redistributable plugin Creator  (OverFlow)
- Cleaned up some GUI page profile issues
- Open sourceing of the ability of advanced team members to release DriverPacks and Base. (Bâshrat the Sneaky)

This is my first attempt at a release so if I missed something Please point it out (nicely wink ).

Changes to all Platforms
=====================
Resolved a pre-existing condition (traced  back to at least version 6086)
This condition would present the wrong page profiles if someone clicked the next button when an invalid folder was selected.
IE if a valid "Disk" location was set and the user swiched to bartpe and then clicked next, all the packs would be selectable, and they are not supported and won't work... yet!  Also if "Multi" was selected and then the user switched back to disk strange things would display. (Cleaned up some gui profile issues.)


Changes to BartPE
=====================
The Base should should now create a "vanilla" plugin if textmode is unchecked and the base is run from outside the BartPE folder structure. This would be helpful as it would create a stand alone plugin with generic settings that could be dropped into any BartPE plugin folder and then be configureable from the PEBuilder plugin configuration screen. Remember in order to create the initial plugin it is better not to have the base program in the bartpe folder (but probably will work fine if this was done)

A "vanilla" plugin can be dropped into the \bartpeprogram\plugin folder of ubcd4win or any other bartpe build.
(so it creates a  \[bartpeprogram]\plugin\Driverpacks.net folder) and then it would be configureable from the plugin page in pebuilder by pressing <Config>.

The Base should create a fully configured and funtional BartPE Textmode plugin if the Textmode box is checked. (default setting)

===========================

As always, there are many people who contribute their time and resources to this project, all of whom make this possable.
Just because their names did not appear in this list (and I am sorry if I missed you) doesn't mean their efforts are not appreciated. This is a team effort and all of the team members deserve a HUGE    Thank You   !

The driver packs team, lead by Muiz, has been tirelessly adding new drivers.
The language team has been adding corrections and new languages.
THe UBCD4win Team has been an indispensable asset to my success with BartPE.

I'm not thinking that you did  disagree - i think you agreed :-P

Bâshrat the Sneaky reference to the branch was an offer to let you add your functionality to the base itself.

by making a separate branch it would allow for simultanious development without preventing releases from happening if one or the other team was not ready.

if you wish to provide your stand-alone application that simply uses the packs themselves looks like you have full support of Bâshrat the Sneaky and the team.

PS. You might have sold BartPE short. It certainly can be fully customized and automated.
UBCD4Win is an excellent example of that.

You can count on me.  I'll help anyway can.

I want to do vista but I think it's still a little to raw to invest a great deal of time on.
I have been waiting for SP1 before taking the plunge.

you forgot to mention that the surface of cheap cdrw and dvdrw can delaminate as a result of the type and quality of the varnish that is used on the upper surface.

I'm glad you guys had so much fun with this thread.

@helmi  - I deliberately did not get technical on this subject, but i'm glad you did =P

there are some security mesures in place please try with IE and without download assistance programs.

Quite simple to do
Just create a CD useing method 1

PS its over 300 meg useing method 2 and around 500 useing method 1 with all packs selected.

PPS You can put the cab compressed drivers that are in the $OEM$ folder after method 1 on a CD by themselves for what you want, furthermore, fully extracting the drivers from the 7zip archives will result in over 1 gig of drivers.

nope.. that link is not accessable to me either.

The folder OEM is deliberately named - It implies that it is to be copied to the windows installation drive.

The same as the $OEM$ folder windows uses, however, we extract the archives from the OEM folder, not copy it, so it is similar yet quite different.  The name OEM is therefore very descriptive and obviously deliberate to an experienced tech.

the mass storage archive also exists in OEM because the text mode versions of drivers are often very limited and are designed to be used only for partitioning and copying (as the name implies during text mode portion of set up only) and are usually not the full drivers that are actually used when plug and play loads for the windows OS.

The mass storage drivers in the OEM folder are the complete driver installations that windows requires to operate at full efficiency.

The only stupid question is the one never asked!

rewriteables use a more malleable metalic surface and it is suseptable to deforming or not holding the imprint as well or for as long.

This characteristic must exist in order to make it eraseable.
It also makes it harder to get a good write and less likely to hold for long periods.

the surface tends to flatten itself over time especialy if not kept cool.

so it looks like you guys might be right Vista users have tripled since january!

of course 3 x .6 is still less than 2%   which means about as many people are useing Vista as are still useing Windows 98

and one site reported 62,000,000 million users for XP  - 2,000,000 million for 98  and  46  (4 dozen)  for Vista.
(heck even win 95 still had 26,000 thousand users (although it puzzels me they even got on the net smile ))
I'm still with hilander we can wait till sp1 is out for Vista (after they are are done being sued by Lucent and the DRM gets flushed down the toilet.) and they have to totaly rewrite the core / kernel and have a 600 meg patch. 

ROFL

I would like to point out here I have hated the initial release of every windows operating system that ever came out
and yes I mean starting with windows  (before it even had a version) nov of 1983 - tried it - hated it - used dos 2 instead

(I long for the simplicity of dos 3.3)

the rewritable media are not as reliable as WORM media. That is not unusual.

Never put backups or info you wish to store for long periods on rewritable.

@ muiz - i guess its done then - lol

- thanks Bâshrat the Sneaky i guess i missed the tongue in his post

I think te answer is obvious.

with a new install everything is created specificaly to the platform you installed on.

when you use an image the creation process is already done, and won't be done again.

perhaps RIS is your answer?

when I use ghost images I create a ghost image for each platform.

After we get the 64 bit drivers for XP and 2003
which we havent even started yet - my guess is 2008
or if hilander is right and vista flops like ME did then never
