Topic: [IMP] ATI Rage 128 Pro DELL - PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_5046&SUBSYS_0404xxxx
I'm attempting to create a S.A.D. (Stand Alone Drivers) disc that can be used with Windows 2000 Pro systems, but I'm running into difficulty.
Basically, I'm trying to breathe some new life into older (P3) systems by installing Windows 2000 Pro. I followed this guide to create an up to date Windows 2000 installation CD with nLite, but slipstreaming all of the DriverPacks drivers left me with an ISO that was too large to fit on a CD. Since these are older systems, burning to a DVD was not an option. So I decided to create a S.A.D. disc instead. Evidently I'm doing something wrong though, so any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Here's what I've done so far: I installed DPs_BASE_809rc1 to F:\DriverPacks and saved all of the driver packs to F:\DriverPacks\DriverPacks. Ran DPs_BASE and chose the S.A.D. option under Settings, selected all the driver packs and slipstreamed to F:\SAD. Finally, I burned the entire DriverPacks.net folder to a CD.
Here's where things go wrong: On the Windows 2000 system I run DP_Install_Tool.cmd from the DriverPacks.net folder on the CD, and here's what happens:
Locating the DriverPacks...
Prepareing the DriverPacks Finisher. Method 2 was found.
The system cannot find the file specified
Running the MicroSoft Driver Pack Installer now !
The progress window is minimized to the task barRunning the DriverPacks.net Finisher now!
The system cannot find the path specified.
The DriverPacks Stand Alone Drivers installation is complete!
This window will close itself in 30 seconds...
The sections in bold would seem to indicate that something went wrong (BTW, it looks like someone misspelled "Preparing").

One last question: I'd also like to set KTD to keep all the drivers on the hard drive, but I don't have any KTD options after I choose the Stand Alone Drivers option.
