Hi guys,
sorry, I did not want to piss of anyone, I was just a bit annoyed by the fact that numerous people have posted for the last few weeks that drivers have to be expanded in order for dism on Windows 7 to work correctly and muiz still keeps on saying that it works for him so there is no need to change anything.
@Razormoon, thanks for the script, will try it out.
@Overflow: I have just been using the Vista driverpacks available, added the W7 drivers, muiz left out (Ati, Nvidia) and expanded all the compress files. Nothing more so I could post them but there is nothing magic in there ....
As for the future: I don´t know about you, but for me the driverpacks integrator or whatever the tool will be called has to be scriptable otherwise I would keep using DISM. I have made a script that builds all my windows editions, integrates drivers, applications, WPI and creates ISOS or updates the WDS Server. So it would be a step backwards to use a tool that can only be operated manally (like Vista Tool or the Old driverpacks Integrator for Windows XP).
IF that could be arranged that would be fine. In general, I have the feeling that driverpacks development/updates are far to slow to really be very useful. Usually if a new driver comes out, integrating that into a new pack should not take more than 5 minutes (just replace the driver inside, expand the driver files, create a new pack by script, bingo). At least thats what I have been doing with the Vista driverpacks.
At least for the Vista/W7 driverpacks that should be the case. It is probably much more complicated for XP, I know.
If you need any help for things like that I can gladly help out.
Bye,
Alex
