Re: Question: Integrate Vista DriverPacks Post-Install

google dpinst

Driver Install Frameworks tool supports vista too. (Not the same one we are currently using for xp)
Windows Driver Kit (WDK) has a newer version of the dpinst.exe that supports Vista 32 and 64bit versions.

I thought the Vista team would respond, so I didn't... wink

I am sure you can get it to work with no trouble big_smile

Re: Question: Integrate Vista DriverPacks Post-Install

you were quite clear, however DPInst has made KTD obsolete wink, please take a look at it. TY

however if you are dead set on KTD (which you did not mention at first)
you could try useing or at least referencing makepnf and DevPath (our DevPath is 32bit only) which are the tools that make KTD work.

Re: Question: Integrate Vista DriverPacks Post-Install

dpinst.exe can not help me, because it only install drivers for detected hardware. But I want to expand the driver rep for future hardware installations. Any idea? It would be very nice how to integrate the Vista DriverPacks post-install into the default driver rep ...

Re: Question: Integrate Vista DriverPacks Post-Install

Vista does not support the DevPath reg entry like XP does?

Really it sounds like you want KTD functionality... the DevPath entry is the key to the XP KTD method...

On Vista/2008/w7 dpinst will install drivers for non-detected hardware.  You might want to look into that possibility again.
