Topic: Help create .ini file to install my SAMSUNG Monitor

Hey guys was wondering if anybody could help me make a .ini file that would install my monitor using devcon?
My monitor driver wont install, I keep getting the plug and play default driver. My monitor is a SAMSUNG SyncMaster 591s

I think I need a .ini file to have my monitor install, kinda like this one:

; REQUIRED
exc_count		= 1
; OPTIONAL
exc_1_tagFiles	= 0
exc_1_+hwids	= 1
exc_1_+hwid1	= "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00DF&SUBSYS_E0001458&REV_A2"
exc_1_+hwid2	= "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00DF&SUBSYS_02501462&REV_A2"
exc_1_+hwid3	= "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00DF&SUBSYS_A5511297&REV_A2"
exc_1_-hwids	= 0
exc_1_+infFiles	= 0
exc_1_-infFiles	= 0
exc_1_commands	= 2
exc_1_command1	= "%SystemDrive%\devcon.exe update %DPSROOT%\D\L\NV\3\nvnetbus.inf "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00DF&SUBSYS_*""
exc_1_command2 	= "%SystemDrive%\devcon.exe update %DPSROOT%\D\L\NV\3\nvenetfd.inf "{1a3e09be-1e45-494b-9174-d7385b45bbf5}\NVNET_DEV00DF""

Here is the driver http://www.sokoolz.com/addons/r64/Samsung.cab

And my HWID

DISPLAY\SAM0116\5&7E4A37B&0&11335577&01&00                  : SyncMaster 591s/591v/594MG/591SG

I kind of understand how to make a .ini but just need a little help with this device, thanks

EDIT: How does this look?

[DriverPack]
platform	= "wnt5_x86-32"
name		= "Ricks AIO"
rootDir		= "D\"
; OPTIONAL
classes		= "Display,Media,Mouse,Net,Processor,SCSIAdapter,System"
driverCount	=
decompSize	= "180"
compSize	= "50"


[3-R-M]
; REQUIRED
exc_count		= 1
; OPTIONAL
exc_1_tagFiles	= 0
exc_1_+hwids	= 1
exc_1_+hwid1	= "DISPLAY\SAM0116\5&7E4A37B&0&11335577&01&00"
exc_1_-hwids	= 0
exc_1_+infFiles	= 0
exc_1_-infFiles	= 0
exc_1_commands	= 2
exc_1_command1	= "%SystemDrive%\devcon.exe update %DPSROOT%\D\3\R\M\SM591s.inf "DISPLAY\SAM0116\5&7E4A37B&0&11335577&01&00""

Re: Help create .ini file to install my SAMSUNG Monitor

Hi,
I downloaded that CAB and used uni-extract to get the ICM, the INF and the CAT extracted.

After that, it should be as simple as rightclick the INF, and install.

EDIT, I see.. that was not your problem..

The answer was 42?
Kind regards, Jaak.

Re: Help create .ini file to install my SAMSUNG Monitor

I know how to install it, I just want to know if maybe it could install like my other drivers in my personal DriverPack (this is the only one which wont install)

The reason is I like to set my screen resolution to have it on 1st boot to 1052x864 with nLite but the max I can get with the Plug and Play driver is 1024x768 (only after I install my monitor driver will I have the option for higher rez)

Does my INI look ok Jaak?

Re: Help create .ini file to install my SAMSUNG Monitor

change this line:
exc_1_commands    = 2

to this:
exc_1_commands    = 1

It might work.

Re: Help create .ini file to install my SAMSUNG Monitor

Yea I found that typo mr_smartpants thanks

Does exc_1_+hwids = do what I think it does?

Temporarily adding that device to the registry so it can be installed/updated?

I was also looking at the sound pack, would something like this work also?

[CR2]
; REQUIRED
exc_count	= 1
; OPTIONAL
exc_1_tagFiles	= 2
exc_1_tagFile1	= "%SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\P17.sys"
exc_1_tagFile2	= "%DPSROOT%\D\S\CR2\Ctzapxx.ini"
exc_1_+hwids	= 0
exc_1_-hwids	= 0
exc_1_+infFiles	= 1
exc_1_+infFile1	= "%DPSROOT%\D\S\CR2\*.inf"
exc_1_-infFiles	= 0
exc_1_commands	= 1
exc_1_command1	= "%DPSROOT%\D\S\CR2\CTZapxx.Exe /S"

Re: Help create .ini file to install my SAMSUNG Monitor

that line causes the finisher to run an external 8.exe file if the HWID is a match

Re: Help create .ini file to install my SAMSUNG Monitor
