ok...now i see. Thanks for the "red and from wood" explanation, lol. The included drivers in OS are not included in driverpacks. Yes, that makes perfectly sense . Really none of them? I know at least realtek network card drivers are both included with OS and driverpacks. That´s why i wondered earlier...

yeah, i c. But...i know now that it´s not reccomended, but why should i keep the old and outdated drivers taking up space on my CD or should i in any case use DVD for install if i want every single driverpack to be present on the disc. I wanna fit as much updated drivers on CD as possible, because there are still computers available that do not have DVD reader. I guess support for certain type of hardware is something else than the some kind of driver(s) itself.

dont know why, but when i slipstream SAD to the same disc with OS, the needed drivers will not be installed. Is it ment to be so?

geez...i dont even remember the brand of the printer any more. Any good driver cleaner would be handy.

OK! I know now...it´s Canon Bubblejet BJC-240. Tried to clean spooler...It was there and i deleted it, also all drivers from spooler. Also made sure there are no driver related files in windows/system32 or windows/system32/drivers a.s.o. Must i really do clean install or is there a way to control the startup of the found new hardware wizard (almost seems like some sort of corrupted windows core file).

ok, a similar problem with this one. If it doesnt fit here, i´ll do a separate topic. Tried to install a printer to a PC and it didnt work, i removed the faulty printer, but the found new hardware wizard still keeps poping up every reboot. Dont know why it still finds the non-existent printer, but it is really annoying. Could this be related to corrupted system file or some kind of faulty registry entry or smth?

very cool. Thank you! I have just one question. How old must a driver be to be added into Graphics C? I would suggest, that if a driver isnt updated any more at all for a long time or is put to legacy status, than its old card or not? Then it would make things easier to maintain only the drivers, that are updated continually. And of course...stability and quality before currency {applause}. Then user can be sure he/she has the best drivers for its card.

em..yeah. I may be dumb, but why is it necessary to update drivers to newer versions, which seems to be crap. If the older driver version is OK and newer version fails, then why bother making "bread of s***". If nvidia makes bad drivers, thats their problem (or not?)

yeah, i know, what you mean. And thats not piracy if you have installed software with legit key, IMHO.

OK, i understand. But how do you load a specific program from the ghost image, i wonder? I never knew about the registry size, so thats a good point. So...no registry cleaner is able to delete the obsolete entries? I asked about the program, that is able to identify missing or corrupt installation files and you didnt answer me... Guess you dont know such program also. Oh never mind...i´ll try it your way then...

Yeah, thats right. Who uses a floppy nowadays any more. I havent seen any laptop with a floppy drive in it all my life. PC´s have it also less and less. Now there are USB sticks, smart card readers, etc. Maybe it is possible to do the boot manager thing on CD/DVD, but i cant tell of course, is it possible or not....

ok, didnt find anything special about it. So my question is...is there any way to make such xp cd with which i am able to repair existing OS. I have configured everyhing as i want, but some important system files seem to be corrupted. Cant figure out what is exactly wrong, so i want to repair the OS, but dont want to loose all the most recent and best found drivers.

i think the base needs also win51 and win51ip files to identify the os version.
