Re: Fake Setup call himself instead original "Setup.exe". Setup Abort!

hi
at the command prompt
DEL /F %systemroot%\system32\setupold.exe
then restart

The answer was 42?
Kind regards, Jaak.

Re: Fake Setup call himself instead original "Setup.exe". Setup Abort!

hi again

people tell us that their solution to this was something they added at the bottom in presetup.cmd
(they do this before they burn.)

REM +==================================+
REM |   Make CD usable for XP UPGRADE REPAIR method.  |
REM |   \386\WINNTUPG folder is needed for this.               |
REM +==================================+
DEL /F %systemroot%\system32\setupold.exe

EXIT

Tip;
use Rewritable media..
There will be updates with fixes and new drivers..

The answer was 42?
Kind regards, Jaak.

Re: Fake Setup call himself instead original "Setup.exe". Setup Abort!

OH.. at the moment, if you run DPsBase on a source so as to update its drivers.. then the change in presetup.cmd is undone.

I've made a request to make this a feature, so this little extra section would be added to presetup.cmd by DPsBase.

I implemented utilizing my methods by putting this at the beginning of presetup.cmd  If at the end I won't assure it will work.

Re: Fake Setup call himself instead original "Setup.exe". Setup Abort!

Where did you get that version of presetup...

let's see your DPs_BASE.log (in the same folder you installed DriverPacks BASE) (Please respond in the other thread)

This issue was fixed years ago... and this thread is over two years old.
