Hi, swbchen
thanks for doing all testing routines and for all your feedbacks.

I don't think you need other lang other than English by "fully UA install" ???!!! IS right??!!!

If you can do Trad. Chinese translation file, we can test at lest MUI compatibility smile And also we can give chance to users to use application in their native language.

Thanks and regards

@ swbchen
download version 3.5.3.2 without autostart from here

I am doing all things you required and I will give you the results asap.

Can you give me the not-auto-install version either 3320 or 3532 ?
I will try to find out whether the drivers are installed using these new versions without auto-install procedure as 2063 or 2300 , the old versions. Of course , I will do it for both Trad. Chinese and English Xp.

Currently I am running Trad. Chinese XP.

I'll prepare non auto-install version for you this evening.

where is the directory of the extracted drivers  ??? I can't find it in the dp_wsed.ini.

is here
$OEM$\$$\dp_wsed\D\DPINST.exe
?????
if so, nothing changed, No drivers are installed as before.

OK. Let's locate bug. Download this archive.Extract it to any location (pls do not use blanks in path).Then extract drivers do the D folder inside extracted folder & run DPINST.exe. Then open setupapi.log file to see results.

Also i need info:
1.If this error occurring while starting from CD\DVD or from HDD?
2.Are you using XP Eng or XP Trad. Chinese?

by the way ,
1. while set
    AutoDPInstall=no
    it still undergos auto-intalling.
2. It shows HWID-s install.  How to unpack DP by method 2  ??

1. While using unattended install - AutoDPInstall parameter ignored by utility
2. 2 method is default method. You need to do nothing to use it.

Thanks for feedback

Hi ! WsnoW:

nothing changed ! No drivers are installed while putting DPINST.exe in DP_wsed directory:

$OEM$\$$\dp_wsed\DPINST.exe

Then.

put DPINST.exe into the extracted driver directory and run it from there.

Hi ! WsnoW:

With your new version 3532, I get the same result that no required drivers are installed as 3230 ???!!!!
What's problem ??

If you need Trad. Chinese Lang.,  perhap I may help you.
Thank you.

Hi, swbchen.
I've receive your setupapi.log, but can't read it.

1.Put DPINST.exe to dp_wsed directory (app's temporary working folder )
2. Run DPINST.exe from there & see what is going on?


Troubleshooting Device Installation with the SetupAPI Log File - more information for setupapi.log.
Hope together we will resolve this issue.

Of course you can prepare Trad. Chinese language file.It will be very much appreciated

@swbchen - hope this version will rersolve your issue

Hi ! WsnoW:

Thank your new version . I try several sets of DP including yours. The UA install works fine. But no drivers are installed.( Porocess shows drivers being installed). With older version ( 2300, 2063 ) all required drivers are definitely installed.

What's the problem ???

what is in the Setupapi.log file? Or what is in utility's log wriiten?

Hi ! WsnoW :

It works (fully UA install except auto-close at the end) perfectly with /unth. It also works nice even with card-readers. Any way to auto-close  the install_window when it finished ?? 
Thanks !

Understand smile
I'll add auto-close  the install_window when it finished in next release.

Thanks for pushing me

Oh !!!  Oh !!!

I think I get the answer !!!!
Thanks a lot, Waiting for my good news !  Wsnow.

And what was the problem?


It seems sticky for a long time ( more 10 min., quiet strange, abnormal )???

Hey WarmSnow!,

The problem is detailed at the end of this topic... http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic.php?id=3075

the short story is that the machine is assigning the removable media drives (card readers) ahead of the systemdrive ( system drive = h: ) so when the script attemts to read the empty card slots it hangs indefinately

Hi, OverFlow

thanks for explanation. but i've never meet this kind of problem.

Hi, swbchen
sorry for late answer. Pls try to run underwritten CMD file from CD/DVD and don't forget for cd.txt. I've check it on my desktop (2 internal drives + 1 internal drive + 2 DVD roms + 1 card reader). And the drive letter assigning without any errors

@ECHO OFF
CLS
TITLE .:: TEST CD/DVD drive letter determining ::.

SET Out=%TEMP%\cd.txt
IF EXIST %Out% DEL /Q %Out%

SET TAGFILE=cd.txt
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 CDrom=%%i:

ECHO ============================= >> %Out%
ECHO cd.txt file found on  %CDrom% drive >> %Out%
ECHO ==============================>> %Out%

:: Show results with notepad
START %WinDir%\Notepad.exe %Out%

:: Clear variable
SET Out=

:: Exit
EXIT /B

Hope this will help you smile

Hi ! WsnoW:
a) I put your folder in $oem$\$1\. So dp_packs are installed from HDD. All applcations  are installed from DVD. Drive Letters are changed wihle running RunOnceEx.cmd after reboot. Assigning a drive letter for these 2 cases remains the same.
b)When the drive Dp folder kept in DVD-root. It fails to install the applications from DVD. when assigning a drive letter remains the (a).
They must be something different for (a) and (b) when Card-readers and multiple-partitions in multiple-hdds present???
How to do that for case (b) ??!!

Ok.
If we are talking about my application then. While starting application first determines drive letter and then drive type. After it choose algorithm to start application (CD/DVD,Fixed Drive,Network Drive, Flash Card etc.)

If we are talking generally - how to install applications from CD/DVD unattendenly then my steps are this.
I'm putting marker file to the root of CD/DVD for example marker.file.
Then in the RunOnceEx.cmd add installation line, for example

REG ADD %KEY%\%i% /VE /D "Recovery Console in Windows XP boot" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\%i% /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Console.cmd" /f
SET /A i+=1

And last option is to put Console.cmd file to the \$OEM$\$1\Install\Console.cmd folder. The content of Console.cmd file is like follows

cmdow @ /HID
@echo off

SET TAGFILE=marker.file
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:

%CDDRIVE%\i386\winnt32.exe /dudisable /cmdcons /unattend

Hope this will help you

Hi ! WsnoW:

I think you solve the GUI problem for PC with mnay HDD's(many partitions in each HDD), 2 Card-reads and floppy.

How do you do that while installing applications from DVD from RunOnceEc.cmd especially when card-readers present??

Thank you !

Hi, swbchen
you meant how do I find and assigh drive letter to install from? Or what? Pls clarify.

this will include the unpack_dp method 2 (sticky with method 2, work only for me)??

Yes.

Except the command line with the required parameter, can I just change the any line in the *.ini  file to do the same thing ???

No. Right now it is the only way.

Hi all.
Exuse me for a long absence.

@ swbchen

for auto - install you can use command line parameters


DPInstaller_WSED.exe  /untd - will unpack all packages then install.
Also you can use DPInstaller_WSED.exe  /unth - this parameter will start Unattended installation of DP by HWIDs
