Thanks for answer. I would be nice if you could set it up to auto activate them unattended or at least to give you an option to select which system you installing on and have it auto activate that one. That is beyond me for now. I still haven't been able to get my auto-activation to even work yet for just one install

Or is there any specific reason why you'd want to do any of the above after integrating the drivers?
I am building a manual unattended that is a evolving work in process. I asked because I had earlier success with the driverpacks but the last two times I tried the lastest packs my unattended disk failed. I may or may not have now found out why.
I did, before I got around to using nLite which greatly speeds up the process.
If you need further info on that (you can also do the drivers manually but it's a real PITA), check out http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/
A really great guide and comes in three "difficulty" levels
Yes I have used that guide and done the drives manually.
One way off topic question. Can you set up an unattended disk to work on 3 different home computers that each have their own different product keys or do you have to put in the product keys on each install making it not a true unattended install?

Again, once you intergrate drivers with the DriverPacks BASE you can no longer do anything to your source? (e.g. edit text, add or remove programs, add remove hotfixes etc). Does that mess something up?
Another question..Does anyone make their own unattended source disk manually without using others program/tools? I just ask because I am trying to learn this and feel the only way to get a true understanding of what you are doing is do it yourself hands on.

Are you saying that once you intergrate drivers with the DriverPacks BASE you can no longer do anything to your source? (e.g. edit text, add or remove programs, add remove hotfixes etc)

Re: [SOLVED] CLI.exe error (8 replies, posted in DriverPack Graphics)
So really that means that ATI Catalyst Control Center needs .NET Framework installed and that is root of problem. In my researching, today, it seems a lot of people can't stand the newer ATI Catalyst Control Center for various reasons. If I didn't want to use the newer ATI Cataylist Control Center and just use older one would I still have to install .NET Framework? How do I make sure only the older Cataylist Control Center (drivers?) get installed? Thanks for the help.

Re: [SOLVED] CLI.exe error (8 replies, posted in DriverPack Graphics)
I wasn't sure I should post in forum because I am not really up to speed on all this. Unless .NET FrameWork is installed on it's own without me having somehow adding it then it's not installed. All I have done is slipstream sp2 and all hotfixes into windows xp pro. Which worked great then I did another dvd with all your drivers (and hotfixes and sp2). I installed all of them following your directions. When it started I think what was step 3 of process the first line in cmd window said something about a file not found. But process never stopped or asked me to do anything (in regards to the message). I did a google search to find out that CLI.EXE (sorry that A mistake in my last post it wasn't CLI.NET, I fixed it) had to do with ATI. My graphics card is a ATI 9600 PRO 128mb AGP based on Radeon. Sorry I am at work if my info wasn't detailed enough. The only editing I did of any of the files was to put hotfixes in as far as your drives I just followed directions. If I need to install framework can you give me link to directions to adding it? (-; In meantime I will try to find how or if it was installed by a search (I am not at my computer so I can't check for it being installed at this time)

Forgive me I am new at this and its my first attempt. I downloaded and installed every driver pact onto unattended XP cd and did a reinstall. I get a message after startup that CLI.EXE can not start and will shutdown. I searched forum and couldn't find anything.
