Topic: Help| WPI & DriversPack Conflict

Hi,
Can anyone help me out with this conflict?

the WPI is designed to load before windows logging on, and the DrivesPack design to install them-self at the same time..

can anyone help me out with this one?

There is an option called: "RunOnceEx - Custom ID", (default is: 937) any I.D will be O.K?



thanks!!!

Re: Help| WPI & DriversPack Conflict

Well, you should chose an ID that differs from the one used by WPI (or any other ROE application), obviously wink

Also, chosing a number < than WPI will make it run before, > will make it run after (I presume, never done that myself, yet, LOL).

I use DriverPacks with runonceex with WPI and have zero problems.  You WILL have a problem if you select DriverPacks to run at GUIrunonce because both guirunonce and runonceex execute at the same time (weird I know).

The DriverPacks runonceex defaults are fine with WPI, I do it all the time.

Re: Help| WPI & DriversPack Conflict

so your saying that I need to leave it just the way it is & it will be O.K?

You know, by-the-way, that your saying in one hand that both GUIrunoce & RunOceEx, conflicts with the WPI.. and the other hand, your saying that I should leave it to default.. zero problems...

The only tiny thing that your forgetting about is, that the default of DrivePacks is RUNONCEEX.... funny huuu?...

Err, have you actually tried it already?

Ususally, the problem solution works that way, you try something, it doesn't work, oyu come here, report and we'll see if we can find a solution.

It does not help much to ask about problems that you may expect to happen when you have not already given it a try.
If you do not have a spare machine to do a test run, use a VM - it won't install any drivers per se, but the Finisher et al will run through regardless.

if both apps use ROE and they use different IDs, you WILL BE FINE.
Don't break your head (and ours) about something that actually doesn't pose a problem IRL wink

Actually what I said was that GUIRunOnce and RunOnceEx execute at the same time.

» First Logon

   1. Windows logs you in and loads personal settings
   2. Both GUIRunOnce from winnt.sif and RunOnceEX executes at the same time
   3. Desktop and Taskbar loads

So if you have abc.exe run during GUIRunOnce, and xyz.exe run during RunOnceEx; then both abc.exe and xyz.exe will execute SIMULTANEOUSLY!!
This will cause problems!
