I guess I wanted to have the OEM in the $OEM$ so I didn't have to copy the OEM folder manually to the root of every computer I wanted to install WinXP onto.  Installing from a USB key is sweet stuff thanx to Driverpacks and RVM.

I'm sorry, I should have mentioned that I was installing from a USB key.  I put the $OEM$ direction I created in the i386, so it copies the OEM directory which is inside the $OEM$\$1\ to the root on the partition I am installing the OS on to.

I never got method 2 to work the way I needed any other way.

Sorry for not being clearer.

I used method 2.  I created a folder called $OEM$ and a folder within that called $1.  I then copied the method 2 OEM into $1 and that was it.

Here's my $.02.

PCI\VEN_105A&DEV_3373&SUBSYS_80F51043&REV_02\3&267A616A&0&40: WinXP Promise SATA378 (tm) IDE Controller

...is my onboard SATA378 chip on my Asus A8V.  I didn't realize till later that the devices on the Promise SATA's weren't working.  To get them to work, I tried many drivers, I had to settle on v1.0.0.27.  The newer drivers on ASUS's website didn't work for me.  The drivers that were even newer from Promise's website didn't work either.  They would both come up with "This Device Cannot Start (Code 10)".  Even a reboot, my devices still didn't come up.  I also was checking in Disk Management.

When I finally settled back to v1.0.0.27, everything worked in Device Manager, but I had to "activate" the drives in Disk Management.

Where did I get the v1.0.0.27 drivers?  Well I don't remember.  I did a backup of my drivers a while back and can not find them on the web anywhere.  I'm thinking I got them from ASUS's website but from a different motherboard that had the same Promise chip.

Here is the readme file that came with the drivers:

I have the files if it comes up.

I have a Creative Audigy 2 ZS Platinum.  I would like to point out that when I used the DriverPack Sound A, sound did not work for me.  In Device Manager, everything looked ok, meaning no !'s anywhere.  I installed the drivers mentioned in the file above manually and sound worked then after.

Here is the specific HWIDs info about my sound hardware:

PCI\VEN_1102&DEV_0004&SUBSYS_20021102&REV_04\3&267A616A&0&70: Creative SB Audigy 2 ZS (WDM)

Sorry, double posted some how.

I have/had the same issue.  I did Control+Shift+ESC to bring up the Task Manager and ended the task named "setup.exe" instead of the finisher.  When you do that, the finisher continues and finishes the rest of the stuff that it does.  Unfortunately I deleted my log file already to show what should have been after your last line, but it may be related with your BSOD and other issues.

I believe that if you got an error launching CLI.exe, it has to do with you not having Microsoft .NET Framework installed.  I'm not positive about that though.  I uninstalled ATI's software (not the drivers) soon after.

Anyway, good luck.
