Looks good! We'll see how it tests out. Welcome to the forum!

Or you could use AutoIT like so...

Local $t, $p
Do
   $p = Ping("pbmain1","3000") ; or IP address
   $t = $t + 1
Until $p > 0 or $t = 10 ; So do this until it connects or wait 30 seconds of timeouts

Oooooooh ok, I just wanted to make sure we had all options covered wink Thanks Jeff.

Also, a Method 3 for extracting the 7z files to the hard drive. Instead of uncompressing setuporg.exe and editing setup.exe to start %systemdrive%\presetup.cmd use the Winnt.sif to run it at T-39. As shown below

[GuiUnattended]
  DetachedProgram="%systemdrive%\presetup.cmd" ; T-39 stage pre-driver installation
  ;Arguments="/s"

That's what I'd do. Sweet and simple smile

True, but if you're planning to use GUIRunOnce you're going to use the Winnt.sif anyways.

Do you know how the method 2 is called during the GUI setup?

I've been testing and noticed that in the Winnt.sif it's viable to use the section SetupParams instead of GUIRunOnce or RunOnceEx. This also allows you to have DPsFnshr.exe to complete before the first login.

Using the i386\winnt.sif

[SetupParams]
   UserExecute="%SystemDrive%\DPsFnshr.exe" ; Post Driver installation

Instead of

[GUIRunOnce]
   command9="%SystemDrive%\DPsFnshr.exe"

I've only been able to test in a VMware environment. But it runs, my logs show that it run properly too. So the more people to test the better.

Also, how does method 2 execute for slipstreaming? Where does it run from? I haven't been able to find it anywhere.

Galapo, is there a command line for OfflineSysprep? I would find that highly invaluable to for deployments.

What exactly are you having issues with Johansen? And don't worry about the language barrier. Many of our users are not native English speakers.

Wow, a quick google search certainly brings up some, eh hem, interesting information. Flickr, Youtube, twitter to name a few.

He's also tried to plead with the guys over at Donationcoder.com, those poor people. I like how he's cut and pasted his thread from there into here (or vice versa). It seems as though he takes heresay for truth, Vista was not developed by "notorious" homeland spies. However, in order for some government agencies to use certain software the companies that develop the software must disclose the code to the government agency for review. Their more worried about their own asses then trying to get yours.

It's sad that he has a channel on Youtube posting video's of "truth" when he's so easily gullible to the lies on the internet.

Certainly those searching for truth and YHWH wouldn't do anything illegal, right Newsandhistory? Like hackintoshes and warez.

However, some forums say he was born Jan 1 1989. So he's possibly also a liar on the techsupportforum.com

"I'm missing an ethernet-controller for my Dell Inspiron 531S. Would any of you please tell me where to find a XP(64-bit)-compatible ethernet-controller driver?

The Dell site is not showing any available drivers for the 64-bit version of XP.

Like I mentioned before: The official Dell website to find the Ethernet controller to get my Dell 531S (with XP x64) to connect to the internet.

Would any of you know where to find the correct 64-bit XP-compatible drivers for Dell 531S. The Dell website is not showing anything, but 32-bit components for Dell 531S."

Well one things for sure he's got Windows XP 64bit and a Dell Inspiron 531s lol. And you'll probably stop getting all those popups on your damn machine when you stop going to warez sites.

So far a google search brings up page 7 for "newandhistory" and 2nd hit on "Dell 531S 64 bit drivers"

I'm building a pack CD soon myself to test for you guys but I'll be using ESXi (should use the same reference drivers for both BUSlogic and LSIlogic).

Just pause, and breath NewsandHistory. It's going to be all right. If Dell doesn't even support your OS, why do you think that we would?

Besides, the very page to download Driverpacks shows that we have only 10 driverpacks for x86-32bit OS. If we had 64bit driver we'd share them. It's not like we're hiding them somewhere unknown.

Vmware uses AMD PCNet network driver or Intel e100/e1000, usually no sound, BX440 motherboard chipset. All of these built into the windows driver set.

If you could post your hwids that would be great!

Oh don't forget to clear the MountedDevices list under HKLM\System\MountedDevices - These will be rebuilt on the next boot!

Sure can!

Just about to release a new version. And I'm wondering if you'd all like the ability to filter search the Manufacturer, Model or other columns. So you can put in something like Nvidia|Ati and it'll search the Manufacturer title for nvidia and ati.

How do you guys like the ability to set your file locations? and the new progress bar?

If you post the HWIDs of the cards you are looking for it's much easier to find out.

Most likely when they are this irate they are usually posting on other forums.

Seriously? I didn't attack "your" countries. The 'forum' possibly attacked your contradictions and illegality. Get over it. Sometimes you're just wrong.

I would love to test it and see the code behind it.

Ahh... well in that case do you need the most recent FindHWIDS code in order to get the most hwids from the INF files? Or who's writing the test code? I'd be happy to put something together as a proof of concept.

I got you and you got me, definitely. I'm just thinking that it's possible to create a db/ini/xml where each HWID lives and thus extract just those folders for the drivers before you continue windows setup.
