I have an unattended Win XP USB stick.

I contains XP SP3 and some driverpacks that I installed some time ago.

I now want to update the Mass Storage driverpack.

I have downloaded the latest DP Base 10.06. 

Should I just be able to run DP Base and choose the relevant driverpack (by popping it into the DriverPacks folder) and they will update?

I am asking as it doesnt seem to be working.

Many thanks


Phil

Actually, been having a play and I can add OEMFilesPath line to the WINNT.SIF and hopefully can then use Method 2 all being well.  Cheers.

When I put the $OEM$ folder at the root of the USB drive the install doesn't work, it only works when I put it within i386.

It's not as bad as it looks, I initially only needed the DriverPacks for Mass Storage Drivers, any other drivers I added as needed and inserted the path in winnt.sif

One other query I have it that I have developed a new USB unattended installation using Windows PE.  The folder structure on the USB drive is like this:

boot
EFI
i386
sources

The $OEM$ folder is in i386.

When I use Method1 the drivers path is too long.  If i use Method2 I get an error as it cannot find \OEM\bin\un7zip.exe (called from presetup.cmd).

Presetup.cmd looks for the CD drive, I am using a USB.  Is it possible to get round this?

Cheers

Hi, thanks for the reply.

I ran the driverpacks some years ago now I think, I can't really remember the order I did it in.

Is there a simple solution to my predicament?  Could I, for example, delete the txtsetup.org before I update the driver packs?

thanks

I have used DriverPacks previously to update an Unattended XP SP3 I created, all worked fine.

I have a new laptop that required new Mass Storage Drivers.  So I downloaded the latest DP Base and DP Mass Storage drivers and ran through the install and all seemed fine.

When I came to run the unattended installation, I got a message as follows:


"...following value in .sif file used by Setup is corrupted or missing

Value 0 on the line in section [sourcedisksfiles] with key "SP3.cab"


The txtsetup.sif seems to have had it's mention of SP3.cab removed and replaced with SP2.cab

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers


Phil.
