The following drivers packs no longer exist:

DriverPack Modem: 9.01.28
DriverPack Virtual (aka VMware): 8.09.25

Thanks a lot for posting such a one.

Thanks for replying ... Yeah I used to be so since a long while but you know life gets more and more busy.

I will do my best to help any one needs my help, as bashrate the sneaky is a very helpful guy.

Hello

I've been browsing the 3rd party drivers forum today and I've realized several releases for the same thing like modems, blue tooth ...etc

Please I'd like to suggest organizing these backs to avoid conflicts smile

Ok
Thanks
I will take my chances, but perhaps you may mentioned something like that to them as well, as you were the best prove that they are a good hosting big_smile.

Hello

Does there is any benefits when I host with them being a member here like a coupon or something a like?

Hello

I've been visiting and downloading DriverPacks since a long time.

Really impressed with the speed and quality of the website traffic.

Was wondering who is your hosting provider?

Thanks

It has been a while since last time I've been here
Every thing is new and much better
Also the website for download divers is much organized
Well done guys
Thanks for helping us

Problem solved
I was using an old version for the driver packs
when I updated the driver packs nothing happened, every thing slipstreamed correctly
I've realized that the sturucture is different some how, especially the file .DS_Store it was not exist in the driver pack I was using so I think the new driver base must be used with the latest updated driverpacks
Thanks a lot
LESSON LEARNED

Thanks a lot
sorry for rush and hurry up things
I do appreciate your help

Any reply please!?

Even with the new version of the driver base I'm still recieving the dame error
I've reinstalled the windows, put every thing in the root for drive c:
but still recieve the same error
any help with that issue
Thanks

Well,
I've put the DPs_BASE_6082 folder on the root (C:)
also the XPCD source on the (C:)
but I recieved the same error
Can you help me with that
I really wish to remove the D folder from system drive after windows finisg installing
so if I failed to use the new driver base
any way to do it manually with a apatch or something
I've tried the patch posted here by other members but did not worked for me
so any one here can help with the current situation or with an explained clear way to remove the D folder
I'm using WPI to install every thing
Thanks
Mohamed

I really was waitig for the new release to delete the D folder from the system root

Symantec antivirus also reported that it is a virus
I uninstalled the SAV then reinstall it after finishing every thing
Thanks

During using the DriverPacks BASE, I did disabled KTD
What am I suppose to choose now:
- Enable the quick stream cach
OR
- Disable the quick stream cach

I do not want to keep any thing
Thanks

So you should not use KTD, choose the first option and you'll should be satisfied.

I've choosed disable KTD setting
but when I finished installing the driver pack I've found the c: in the vmware like this:

so what is wrong
also I would like to tell that all applications I installed with WPI did installed sucessfully
also regarding the answer file, after I slipstramed the driver packs, I've found that it did created an answer file contains two entries:

     MsDosInitiated = "0"
     OemPreinstall=Yes

run the fnsh_log.cmd from WPI.

Where is that file?
And where it is located?
I've opened the OEM folder in the CD Root but did not find it at all

well, here underbelow are the

driver packs I will use:
------------------------------
DP_Chipset_wnt5_x86-32_605.7z,
DP_Graphics_A_wnt5_x86-32_606.7z
DP_LAN_wnt5_x86-32_6051.7z
DP_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32_6031.7z
DP_Sound_A_wnt5_x86-32_6061.7z

3rd party DriverPacks:
----------------------------
DP_Printers_wnt5_x86-32_V603.7z
DP_TV_wnt5_x86-32_v1.8.1.7z
DP_VMware_wnt5_x86-32_V1.1.7z

I prepared the WPI folder and put both WPI folder and $OEM$ folder on the cd root (c:\UAXP)
Then I run the DPs_BASE.exe and go through normal steps till it done and slipstreamed every thing in the cd source (C:\UAXP)
then I opened the WINNT.SIF which exist in C:\UAXP\I386 and realized that it created the following entries:
[GUIRunOnce]
     command9="%SystemDrive%\fnsh_log.cmd"
so I added it to my answer file which contains every thing else then I replaced the one created by DriverPacks DPs_BASE.exe with the one I use which contains all my data for setup and I made sure that the new answer file contains the entry created by DPs_BASE.exe which is
[GUIRunOnce]
     command9="%SystemDrive%\fnsh_log.cmd"
so now when I run the .iso file on VMWARE, I did not find the driverpacks installed
so what could be wrong
also I want to know does there is any way to call Driver Packs from WPI
Thanks

Any ANswer !?

I think nLite is the cause,
because I used Ryan integrator and it works
thanks
