Sorry.. I manually pointed to r3 surprisingly it work without any modification and returned i it to customer due to time concern.. I will find the drivers and post it here.

Topic: [Prob/REQ] 1814&DEV_0201 - Belkin PCI WLan Card - Strange behaviour? (3 replies, posted in DriverPack WLAN)
Hello All,
HWID - PCI\VEN_1814&DEV_0201&SUBSYS_700A1599&REV_01\4&2E98101C&0&08F0
Driver could not found by search automatically by pnp wizard from cd where driver pack resides. But manually pointing to r3 directory succeeded. (As per detailed supported driver packs page)
But i could not find exact hwid in Rt2500.INF instead i found a variation SUBSYS_700A1799 instead of SUBSYS_700A1599. Any idea why manually pointing works and pnp wizard search did not go thru?
Regards

Sorry for the delay. The download link is not valid.. Can you provide me any alternate link? So can i consider that the classification based on the manufacturer's category and chipset model may not work?

Re: Change in directory structure? (10 replies, posted in DriverPack WLAN)
Hi Jaak,
Sorry.. If i never explain properly. Let's consider below example. If you take Intel Wireless chips, below were the only available chips.
* Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN
* Intel® PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection
* Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection
* Intel® PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection
* Intel® PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Connection
In any brand laptop, the drivers provided by Intel will work. Even if there is a special feature means's it will still require a software to work. So i guess the drivers are specific and it can not be generic. What i intend to emphasize is that we only have 5 folder which will support all Intel adapters.
This is not the case with the rest. For example Atheros sells their wifi processor / chips to Dlink or Linksys and the integrators rebrand it. But the drivers provided by Atheros to both parties are same except different subsystem ids. (Please note i am not taking about merging all drivers in 1 folder, where as i am suggesting as listed in http://www.broadcom.com/support/etherne … rivers.php. the download is classified based on the manufacturer's category and chipset model.
I do agree it will not work for laptop keyboards and touch pads but not for others like sound, wilreless, chipset, graphics & lan
Do you think its possible?
By the way i downloaded a spotlight utility from below link and scan to thru all the inf files.

Dear All,
I think I find a way to accommodate more drivers in a less space. Or any other innovative way you can use this finding.
i have collected all the hardware id's from DP_WLAN_wnt5_x86-32_803 and did a search as mentioned below.
Search String Hardware ID Only - PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_001A
DP_WLAN_wnt5_x86-32_803\D\W\5x\net5211.inf
DP_WLAN_wnt5_x86-32_803\D\W\AtT\net5211.inf
DP_WLAN_wnt5_x86-32_803\D\W\DBB\NetA3AB.inf
DP_WLAN_wnt5_x86-32_803\D\W\DEB\net5211.inf
If we can
Search String Hardware ID Only - PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0013
DP_WLAN_wnt5_x86-32_803\D\W\3d\3C154A72.inf
[C:\DP_WLAN_wnt5_x86-32_803\D\W\5x\net5211.inf]
[C:\DP_WLAN_wnt5_x86-32_803\D\W\AL\CVN3AB.inf]

[C:\DP_WLAN_wnt5_x86-32_803\D\W\DEB\net5211.inf]
and so...on
What i can understand from this is, if you ignore the subsystem ID (subsystem Vendor) it may lead to only few manufacturers not the integrators.The benefit may be we can reorganize the folder Like Atheros,Intel & Broadcom where only real manufacturers will be listed and then add a tag file for each folder of which of the models, oem's are supported by the driver listed.
The second benifit may be space and mobility where a little space can accommodate more drivers.This can be achieved by adding similar hardware id's together with the subsystem id and description like DP_WLAN_wnt5_x86-32_803\D\W\DEB\net5211.inf + DP_WLAN_wnt5_x86-32_803\D\W\AtT\net5211.inf in to single file and folder.
The third benefit may be we can have list of supported drivers and its hardware id's (Pnp id's), so that it can be used to double check when someone post and claims it's not supported by the driver pack which will enable us to add more drivers or supported devices.
[Folder Name]
Provider = D-Link
DriverVer = 05/23/2003,5.140.0523.2003
PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8180&SUBSYS_33021186 = D-Link Air DWL-650 Wireless Cardbus Adapter(rev.M)
PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8180&SUBSYS_33031186 = D-Link Air DWL-520 Wireless PCI Adapter(rev.D)
This is just an idea only. Sorry if i wasted your time.I am just sharing my thoughts and hope if anyone can make use of this in any other way.

Re: Desperately Need All Drivers For Acer Aspire 5100-5023 Laptop, Please! (2 replies, posted in Other)
Sorry mr_smarpants. Hope you don't mind.
CODYQX4,
you are in the wrong place as smart pants say. please try to use driverpacks instead download and install all the driver. it defeat the purpose of driverpacks.net. However you can download the driver from http://www.acer.com.cn/driver/check_who … uct=AS5100
instead of paying to your laptop manufactures, you can donate to some useful stuffs.

Re: Can't find LAN driver (3 replies, posted in DriverPack LAN)
that's a Nvidia GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 mainboard. please download nforce drivers from http://www.nvidia.com/object/nforce_nf4 … 11.09.html which will resolve smbus, lan and others except sound. as for sound it's a ALC888 so please download ftp://202.65.194.211/pc/audio/WDM_R186.exe
Please motivate yourself to use driverpacks in future.
