Topic: quick driver DVD (2 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a driver-DVD where I can quickly find an appropiate driver.
I don't want to install DPINST.exe, I just want a DVD with all INF files ready to be used.
I unpacked the driverpacks to my harddisk, but XP won't find any driver when I tell
it to look there.
I unpacked and burned the driverpacks to a DVD, and tried it. Now XP will accept it.
BUT ... it's taking VERY long to find a driver for my multimedia controller.
It goes VERY fast with this release :

Any way to make something similar for you guys ?
thanks for any info !
