So i forced PNP with sysprep and this seems to have fixed All of my problems except the audio drivers. But it fixed my chipset issues and everything else.

Alright i'm trying one more thing too.. but here's how i have it set up. I'm still really new to this stuff so bare with me. [unattended] OemSkipEula=Yes InstallFilesPath=C:\sysprep\i386 DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore OemPnPDriversPath=drivers\UD\Audio\Realtek;drivers\UD\Audio\SMX; drivers\UD\Video\ATI;drivers\UD\Video\Intel;drivers\UD\Video\nvidia; drivers\UD\Nic\3com;drivers\UD\Nic\Intel;drivers\UD\Nic\Broadcom;drivers\UD\Chipset\Intel My directory structure is like this c:\drivers\ud\hardware type\manufacturer. Example. C:\drivers\UD\Video\ATI C:\drivers\UD\Chipset\Intel etc. I was also wondering about adding OEMPreInstall=yes, what does that do?

OK well... i got the chipset drivers from Intel's site. I plop them in my folder and sysprep it. I start the machine back up and it goes through the mini setup and what not, and after it's all done it still has a Yellow ! next to one of the USB componenets, so i say update driver and point it to the chipset folder and it finds the drivers and installs them. I don't understand why it didn't install it the first time if it worked when i did the update.

I gave that a try before i left work on friday and that didnt' seem to work either, but now that i think about it i'm not entirely sure i put the newest machines soundmax drivers on there... I have quite a few drivers i'll have to double check that. I'll give it a try again on monday. As a side note i'm also having problems with the chipset drivers on the SX, they seem to not be installing. I went to Dell's site and downloaded the driver and extracted it and just put the whole folder in there, i'm not sure what's going on with that but is it a problem that the inf file's are all in the chipset folder and then the sys files are in a folder within that?

Hey guys i'm new here so correct me if i'm asking this question wrong but here goes. Ok so i've got 4 computers that i want to image with the same image. I've got 3 dell's. An optiplex GX240, GX270 and an SX280 and then i have 1 HP, a DC7600. So i sysprep them all and modify my sysprep.inf to look like this. [unattended] OemSkipEula=Yes InstallFilesPath=C:\sysprep\i386 DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore OemPnPDriversPath=drivers\GX270\V;drivers\GX270\A;drivers\GX270\N;drivers\GX240\V;drivers\GX240\A;drivers\GX240\N;drivers\sx280\V;drivers\sx280\A;drivers\sx280\N;drivers\sx280\C;drivers\DC7600\V;drivers\DC7600\A;drivers\DC7600\N Where A stands for Audio, V for video, n stands for nic, and C stands for chipset. Now the problem i'm having is that it seems like my SX280 is picking up the wrong version of soundmax audio drivers. The 240 and 270 both use soundmax and i'm thinking that it's going down the list of machines and picking up the 240 or 270 drivers and then it never gets to the SX280\a folder because it already found drivers. In my device manager it's showing that it has soundmax but it has a yellow ! that says device cannot be started. So i tried uninstalling it and rechecked for new hardware. It picks up the audio and somehow puts the right drivers and when i restart it works fine. So i guess my question is, how can i make it use the SX280\a drivers instead of just using the ones from the 240 or 270? Also i'm trying to do chipsets with the SX280 and that's not working either, I can't seem to figure out how i should put the drivers in the SX280\C folder.
