Thanks Jaak for your input. I can confirm LAN pack 805E has solved the problem we were having with the BSOD. Sorry for the delay in getting it tested and getting back to you with the result. Sorry this post now appears on all three related threads.

Kind regards, rmgalley.

Thanks for making available DP_LAN_wnt5_x86-32_805E.7z. It looks OK when expanded but I'll test it on a real installation tomorrow.

For your information here is the content of my HWIDS file, although I guess it is not needed now. As far as I can tell a DPsFnshr.log was not generated in the failed installation.

Next time use code tags !

Thanks for your quick response.

I have now prepared and tested an installation with DP_LAN_wnt5_x86-32_7062.7z from last year and can confirm this appears to work flawlessly.  Version 1.0.3.5025 of NVENETFD.sys is installed.

I'll look forward to a new testpack and give it a workout when available. Can it be assumed that all component parts of 6.86 will be updated? It was only the nVidia Networking Function Driver that was throwing up errors but is there a possibility of other files being with the wrong versions?

Could I take the opportunity of thanking the team for all the hard work they do on our behalf. This is infrequently used software in my case but I have found it and nLite to be invaluable.

I too am having BSOD crashes when installing DriverPacks on XP Pro SP3. Before coming to this forum, as a first visitor, I did some investigation of my own.

The problem is identified as NVENETFD.sys which normally installs as NVEFDXP.sys in C:\WINDOWS\System32\Drivers.

I am using an MSI MS-7125 board with NVIDIA nForce4 chipset. According to the nVidia website the latest drivers for nForce4/500 series are contained in their package v6.86. The version of NVENETFD.sys in this package is v1.0.3.5025 and my previous installation works OK with this.

I created an image of the failed installation, recovered the previous installation and mounted the failed one to discover which version was now being installed. The version of NVENETFD.sys installed by DP_LAN_wnt5_x86-32_8051.7z was found to be v1.0.1.6015. While other versions are available v1.0.3.5025 is not. The new version offered (DP_LAN_wnt5_x86-32_805D.7z) contains only the same version as the previous one.

I had a look at DP_LAN_wnt5_x86-32_7062.7z from last year and found the needed version in the D\L\NV\45_rest folder. I suspect the lack of the supposed correct version has something to do with the problem.

As the LAN pack from last year, for my purposes, is completely up-to-date I will now create another XP installation CD with this included instead of the most recent version and report back.
