when i use the switch:



a dialog box comes out asking for installation of SCSI/RAID drivers at the end

how can i fix this?

thanks

I would install deamon in a vmware or virtual pc and record the installation with winInstall... then I would just compile a installer with winInstall of the complete installation... This is also very usefull when you are installing drivers that arent certified without having to supress the windows protection on it... (am not sure about last bit though, but I havent had any problems so far)...

all i do is use /qn it doesnt reboot on me

& the scsi drivers are a problem, but its been discussed & the work around i believe was 2 include the drivers on your unattended cd, search device drivers forum for answers or even unattended forum

but the thing is that i DON'T have SCSI/RAID devices.

i think it's from Daemon Tools

do you guys have this problem when installing Daemon Tools?

the virtual dvd drive that installs daemon it's a SCSI one. if you go to device manager you can see a "DTxxxPRT SCSI Controller" (D)aemon (T)ools (xxx) means 3 numbers version (P)o(RT). maybe it's a problem with that version of daemon, i use version 3.46 and my switch:

I 2 use 3.46

thanks for that switch.

i'll try it out

and yea, i use 3.46 too.

not working

oh well, i guess i just have to install it afterwards

It's weird, but i never used to have that problem until recently. I swear i didn't change a thing, it just popped up.

But if I just leave it alone it goes away by itself. and the program still works. The SCSI controller I get is D346PRT. So i say heck it, i've got other things to worry about...

My switch is this :

no, i have the same problem, and i know whats causing it.

i tried just installing dtools exe (not msi) and it did the same thing. so it was obviously a sp2 problem.

the cause is that new option to install drivers from windows update. you have to make it NOT ask you (the top option)

the middle option (always ask) is the default. all i need is the registry tweak so i dont have to do this manually, here ill post a screen so you know what im talking about

is it possible to use something like Taskkill to remove it?

it's not as smooth but it should do the trick.

no, taskill wont work. windows is just asking you if you want to let it download a better driver from windows update, which is a waste of time because you already have the driver. a registry tweak or a script would fix this

can anybody help us?

i'm still having this problem.

i finnaly found the reg tweak so it wont ask me if i want to windows update. but NOW it asks me to search for the driver (it finds it if i tell it to search..)

WHY all of a sudden does it do this!?!? even doubleclicking the file will prompt me now. before (only adding a reg tweak), if i manually disabled windowsupdate driver search, it didnt prompt at all. now im confused..

if anyone knows how to solve this, plz tell us!

anybody?

here's the error screenshot:

maybe this is a glitch in SP2?

ewww a 900+ kB bitmap

here i compressed it, so people on 56k can help

yes thats EXACTLY what im getting now, cant get around it...

no its not a glitch in sp2, (with dtools 3.46), it worked perfectly for me. now all of a sudden it doesnt....

we still need help

i'm going to format soon so i need to figure this out.

You can use a JScript script to deal with that screen.

i figured out nlite is the cause of this problem. after splitstreaming w/ nlite, and immediatelly making an iso, i didnt have this problem. but if i continued w/ nlite and make it classic install etc, then i ran into this problem.


maby someone might look into this and find out exactly why nlite makes tis happen?

this obviously isnt a "problem" different components cause different things 2 happen, that is why its suggested that u test it specifically for what u need, b4 burning/finalizing your project, so u dont have this happen

I had the exact same thing happen to me, never had that problem before and used the same switches and everything. I get that SCSI/RAID prompt and can do nothing else but click.

Hope this issue will be resolved soon.

what about creating an autoit script to click "no"

no no, you want it to hit YES, otherwise the driver wont install and no dtools

sorry i wanted to say "no, i don't want to search for a better driver". anyway have you tried to manage the installation with autoit??

ps: i'm sure there also must be a regkey to tell windows "never search for drivers on windows update

how would you create such a script?

i got AutoIt and it was too confusing

look in the help file, its easy

I found a good solution: i simply install it at T-12 with cmdlines.txt
i wrote a batch that launch the silent install and added it: it seems to work perfectly: i've got hte SCSI adapter, the tray-icon and the virtual CD-Reader.
hope this helps

btw, if anyone had a solution for awxDTools i'd be interrested : no way to have the install to be silent :-/
it's a NSIS but /S is not enough

edit: hem, forgot to post in english

well, i haven't played a lot with that but i took 1 as an example and it's not too difficult. you only have to insert the keys that needs to be pressed. take a look at this thread, download one autoit script and start writting...

edited: LOL, FORGET EVERYTHING BEFORE! a new version of daemon tools it's out (3.47), same switches and it appears to solve the sp2 problem:

change log
download daemon tools 3.47

Yes a new version has been available for a few days now but I tried installing it in the same manner as I installed previous versions and the prompt about SCSI/RAID remains.

f***!

has anybody other tried with cmdlines.txt ?
if that works, why should we search sth other ?

I´ll try cmdlines. If I should succeed I´ll report back to you here.

version 3.47 + nlite patch to remove the driver update dialog works for me

For all of you that have not got Daemon Tools to work, this is what i have done to get it to work flawlessly....

assuming that your install of windows is the default. make corrections accordingly

step 1.

on your main system, unistall daemon tools. download and install the latest version. which should be 3.47, as far as i know the next release wont be until 4.0.

step 2.

after you install the recent addition, navagate yourself to
"c:\windows\downloaded installations\DAEMON Tools 3.47" in that directory you will find the infamous .msi file everyone talks about. copy that to your unattended install applications directory.

step 3.

for some this step my differ again, because i use the RunOnceEx method. But the switches should remain same. just add the following to your RunOnceEx.cmd file

REG ADD %KEY%\007 /VE /D "Daemon Tools 3.47" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\007 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Applications\DaemonTools\daemon.msi /quiet /passive /qn /norestart REBOOT=ReallySuppress" /f

I tried out 3.47 with nlite-0.98.8b and as SiMoNsAyS said ( ) it worked.

EDIT: Never mind, covered already

where is that in nlite, just can't see it

What "nlite patch" are you referring too?

How to do it with nLite???

And cmdlines.txt?

hallo
I'm using this:

but that f***ing window for the driver appears again...
...and i've checked out the suppression on Driver Install in nLite...
so? someone can help me?

mrmr

The driver install window should never popup when installing Alcohol or Daemon Tools. Try scrapping ALL your switches and using just /qn Reboot=ReallySuppress. That's all you need, trust me.

well, tried right now with this:

but the driver window appears again...even if i've removed "driver search" also with nLite...

mrmr

Have you removed any drivers using nLite? Since DaemonTools uses a "faux SCSI" device, I believe you need the SCSI drivers left in the install.

In my installation the searching driver window will pop-up, but I just leave it there. Runoncex will continue going to next step and the window will disappear by itself.

cola99 my installation goes like your...if i wait the driver window disappear...btw it should be better if it doens't appear at all...

@Jito463
I've removed most of the drivers...i've only net, sound and some other...my XP CD is 198MB right now...

mrmr

P.S.
I've also found an old post in this forum that point to a awxDTools_R0.9.exe of 50k...
it can be installed silently...and doesn't need daemon script...
