Once again, thanks for your patience and time spent on this thread.
After doing some investigation, I found the bug in our procedure.
Some time ago a problem with dpsfnshr.exe, that did not run correctly at the end of the presetup process, appeared.
As a workarround we placed a call to dpsfnshr.exe in RunOnceEx.cmd to overcome the problem.
Now, that dpsfnshr.exe runs as expected, it is called twice and generated these beeps and annoying pop-up windows.
Removing the second call to dpsfnshr.exe solved this issue.
Now our BartPe-, Driverpacks-, Database- and webconfigured unattend-install system does it's job nearly perfect.

Slight out off topic:
Although I did a lot of reading and investigation about unattended installs, I was not able to clear one important point at all.
In which phase of the windows setup process the settings for the default user and/or All users can be modified?

My approach to do it in RunOnceEx.cmd with:
REG ADD %KEY%\003 /V 2 /D "REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\Apps\userset.reg" /f
only affects the Administrator or other autologged-in account after next login.
Where is the right place and time to do this kind of stuff?

Thanks for any hints and have a nice weekend
Guido

Thanks for your explanations regarding dpshnshr.exe and ist's components.
I think our problem is the automatic generated presetup.cmd.
We did some tweaking inside this file generated by an older version of dps_base.exe and used it as a template.
After each new run of dps_base.exe we placed a copy of this "template" into i386 directory, overwriting the actual
generated from dps_base.exe.
Since something inside presetup.cmd must have been changed, I'll have a closer look at the presetup.cmd generated by the new dps_base_8124.exe.

SAD is on my to view list.

Sorry, but I can't find find mute.exe in any location, perhaps this is the problem...
Method 2 was used for integrating DriverPacks into our install-share.
After examening the logfile, I found an actual and an older version of MassStorage detected through
the dps_base script.
Is this a problem and do I have to move the older dps_x_packs to a different location?
Until now I thought dps_base script only uses the newer version of any found DriverPacks.

Here is dps_base.log:

While dpsfnsher runs and kills popup-windows from the driver signing policy each action
is followed by a beep.
In older version(s) of dps_base these windows closed silently.

Anyone an idea what happened and what can be done to fix this behaviour?

Regards

Guido

Is there a problem with latest dps_massStorage 901 and ahci or raid options for Intel ICH10?

Integrating dps_massStorage 901 with latest dps_base and method 2 into WIN-XP-PRO-SP3 Installshare works fine as usual.
Our unattended WIN32 Installationscripts also run fine.
After files have been copied into the systemfolders and the reboot takes place, the system stops with a blue screen.
After some investigating in the registry of the half-installed system we found, neither ahci- nor raiddrivers have been installed.
Service iastor isn't created and in the hive-key containing CriticalDeviceDatabase-entries no pci-ids concerning the ICH10 Controler can be found.
There is no differenz in using either AHCI- or RAID-Mode for the SATA-Ports, same failure.
Only using IDE-Mode works.
Is there anything we can do to fix this?
As a quick workarround we used Acronis True Image with Universalrestore to convert the unattended installed IDE-Systems to RAID or AHCI.
Any help would be appreciated.

First at all thanks to the hard working people from driverpacks.net for their great work.

It looks like there are missing dlls in the lan-driverpack, eg. nicco26.dll for the intel drivers.
I had problems with Intel "I2" and Nvidia "NV3" - "NV7".
After deleting the above folders from the pebuilder-driver folder, the build ran fine.

Version of LAN Driverpack DP_LAN_wnt5_x86-32_805
Version of BartPE: 3.13
