I tried this Driverupdater thing and followed instructions to the letter. I am running XP x86 and this thing simply does not work during unattend install. Why?

Re: [Solved] DP Base 8.05 works / 8.12.x "no files to extract" error (47 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
I just got done testing it again using the DP Base 8.12.3 default presetup.cmd and it worked. All this time it must have been the E:\OEM folder with no driverpacks causing this issue. I believe the problem has been solved. And yes it was an user error. By the way I did build this system myself, an excellent educated guess on your part. Thanks again for your time, effort and for tolerating my frustration.

Re: [Solved] DP Base 8.05 works / 8.12.x "no files to extract" error (47 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
As I said I deleted the E:\OEM folder and it did not contain any driverpacks. As you asked did I test it after I deleted that folder and the answer is yes I just did. I'll be damned! It Worked! Do you suppose this mystery has been solved? FYI: The following is the code I used when testing.
FOR %%i IN (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y) DO IF EXIST "%%i:%TAGFILE%" (SET CDDRIVE=%%i:

I have C:\, D:\, and E:\ drives. I did find it on E:\ drive and I deleted it. And yes I will subscribe to this topic. I do appreciate you taking the time and effort to aid me in solving this issue. I have to admit I was somewhat rude and crude in the beginning when I first posted this topic due to frustration. This has been a learning experience for me and I appreciate that.

I tried it again after I made the changed the line
Start /wait /realtime /separate "" "%CDDRIVE%\OEM\bin\un7zip.exe %CDDRIVE%\OEM\DP*.7z %SystemDrive%\
to
%CDDRIVE%\OEM\bin\un7zip.exe %CDDRIVE%\OEM\DP*.7z %SystemDrive%\
Did not work.
I did try another test by changing this line
FOR %%i IN (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y) DO IF EXIST "%%i:%TAGFILE%" SET CDDRIVE=%%i:& GOTO DPsFound
:DPsFound
to
FOR %%i IN (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y) DO IF EXIST "%%i:%TAGFILE%" SET CDDRIVE=%%i:
and this worked. It seems to me no matter how you write this command as long as the
GOTO DPsFound
:DPsFound
is included it either misleads or confuses un7zip or something. As for speed it seems to me that that would come from un7zip as it is updated and improved.

Did not work.... That is it did not work until I disconnected my slave drive. In other words with just one hard drive connected to my PC DP Base v8.12.3 worked. Normally I have a master and a slave drive. They are SATA I and SATA II. SATA II being the master and SATA I being the slave. I did go into my CMOS and reset my CMOS settings to default, then set my boot device priority to ROM, HD, Floppy drive. USB not being used as a boot device. This was done when this problem arose. I hope this info helps.

No it did not report
"\OEM\" folder not found. all drive letters were searched
No it was not jumpered as master and is at the end of the cable and is alone. Changed jumper to master. Made changes to presetup.cmd. Tested and did not work.
However, after reading your suggestions it prompted me to try a test of my own as follows:
v8.05 Default presetup.cmd
REM +==================================================================+
REM | Finding CD/DVD driveletter. |
REM |--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
SET TAGFILE=\OEM
FOR %%i IN (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y) DO IF EXIST "%%i:%TAGFILE%" SET CDDRIVE=%%i:
V8.12.3 Default presetup.cmd
REM +==================================================================+
REM | Finding CD/DVD driveletter. |
REM |--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
SET TAGFILE=\OEM
FOR %%i IN (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y) DO IF EXIST "%%i:%TAGFILE%" SET CDDRIVE=%%i:& GOTO DPsFound
:DPsFound
The rest of the configuration commands is the same in both presetup.cmd files.
I copied the v8.05 Default presetup.cmd file into my I386 directory and replaced the presetup.cmd created by v8.12.3, burnt DVD tested it and it worked.
Apparently the :& GOTO DPsFound
:DPsFound
isn't needed or is it?

It is IDE and it hooks to my MB via Ribbon cable.

Re: [Solved] DP Base 8.05 works / 8.12.x "no files to extract" error (47 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
I have been contemplating my problem by looking at what worked and what didn't work. What worked was installation on a WD 20 GIG EIDE drive. What didn't work was installation on a two part partitioned (C:\ & D:\) WD 500 GIG SATA I drive. Both installations was done on the same PC in question. Why would DP Base 8.12.2 XP setup installation work on an EIDE drive and not a SATA I drive on the same PC? The question is; "To be or not to be." Another question is; "Hardware or software issue?" Can't imagine that being a hardware or PC configuration problem, however I can imagine it being a software configuration problem, simply because DP Base 8.05 works with no problem and DP Base 8.12.2 does not work. I if understand DP setup, the driverpacks are integrated to a folder called OEM in the CDSETUP folder, therefore when it is burnt to a CD or DVD the OEM folder containing the Driverpacks is located in the CD/DVD root. Why would DP Base 8.12.2 see the files in the OEM folder within an ISO setup using VMWare and not on DVD? The next question is what is written differently in DPBase 8.12.2 than 8.05? Might be worth a look.

Re: [Solved] DP Base 8.05 works / 8.12.x "no files to extract" error (47 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
The exact error is "no files to extract". The window title is un7zip. When I boot up I hit any key to install from CD it then does XP's thing, I choose the drive and then it inspects the drive configuration and commences to copy files needed for setup. When it finishes that it then reboots and starts with the default Windows Xp boot screen, then goes to the Driverpack extraction process and then that is when I get the error "no files to extract", window title un7zip. It does not extract anything as it cannot find anything. I tried changing controllers and same thing. Yes it is DVD. I had a thought, is it possible for me to allow you to access my PC remotely via internet? If possible you may be able to gather some needed info.

Were you trying those SATA drives in RAID, AHCI, or IDE (compatibility) mode?
RAID has been disabled in my CMOS
When my machine boots up it says searching for IDE drives.....
So it must be

I find it strange that DP Base 8.05 works just fine and 8.12.2 doesn't. Makes one take a hard long look at both hardware and software doesn't it?

Re: [Solved] DP Base 8.05 works / 8.12.x "no files to extract" error (47 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
I just ran another test using a 20gig EID WD hard drive connected to the PC I am having trouble using the DPBase 8.12.2 on and I'll be damned if it didn't work. Do you suppose it does not like my WD SATA hard drives? Why would it work on an EID and not a SATA hard drive? This was tested using an install disk using a Retail version of Windows XP Professional with SP3. I integrated all of the 10 driverpacks using 8.12.2 DP Base and absolutely nothing else. No MS updates, no addon packs, no modded files, not nothing just driverpacks. Did not use RVM integrator or nLite or anything, just DP Base 8.12.2. So any ideas?
Note: One thing I never mentioned is the fact that I have two hard drives in my PC. The main one is a WD SATA II 500 gig with 3 partitions C, D, & E. The second one, the slave , is a WD SATA I 500 GIG, just one partition, F.

Re: [Solved] DP Base 8.05 works / 8.12.x "no files to extract" error (47 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
There is sufficient space on the system drive. As I quoted to the 'newbie' , tested it on C:\ drive in which case I get the same damn old error "NO FILES TO EXTRACT". FYI I just installed VISTA Ultimate on the same exact C:\ drive. Successfully I might add. As far as I get into the install is up to the driver pack extraction process which occurs after XP finishes copying setup files and reboots to begin install. As the DVD I used for testing only driverpacks integrated with DPBase 8.12.2 I did not integrate anything with nLite or RVM integrator. No modded files no themes no nothing except DRIVER PACKS! I will test this on an entirely different machine.

You could also have a Boot virus that mix the Driver letters up. Test it on a Virtual Machine and install Windows XP on a D:\ partition.
I don't believe I have a boot virus and I did test it on a virtual machine from a DVD and it does not work. However when I test it on a virtual machine from an ISO file it works.
As for the service pack it is SP3 which was integrated by Microsoft.
I tested this again on drive C:\ from a DVD and still get "NO FILES TO EXTRACT"

As I said I would run a few more tests. I created an install disk using a Retail version of Windows XP Professional with SP3. I integrated all of the 10 driverpacks using 8.12.2 DP Base and absolutely nothing else. No MS updates, no addon packs, no modded files, not nothing just driverpacks. I tested it in VMWare after I burnt it on a DVD, worked fine there. I then rebooted my machine and attempted to install it to my D: drive, as my HD has been partitioned; C:\ and D:\ drives. DP Base 8.12.2 DID NOT work there! I keep getting the error "there is nothing to extract". I noticed in VMWare it uses a virtual C:\ drive as default and therefore copies the packs to C:\ before extracting. My point is that it does not do it to any other drive such as D:\ drive. I truly think there is a problem with DPBase 8.12.2 Please don't tell me that people have been using this DPBase for months with no reported issues.

Topic: [Solved] DP Base 8.05 works / 8.12.x "no files to extract" error (47 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
Original Title: DP Base 8.12.1 and 8.12.2
I integrated the updated driver packs following nlite session. I used DP Base 8.12.2 to integrate drivepacks and then burned my windows xp pro setup to an .ISO file using NERO then tested it using VMWare and it worked fine. I then burned the ISO to a DVD and I when I attempt to do an install to a clean hard drive I get the error, "there is nothing to extract" each and everytime. Evidently this DP Base needs fixed or I am doing something wrong. I Integrated the packs using method two, RunOnceEx.
Here is my log:
