Just wondering if it is possible for me to put driver files in a cab and have sysprep factory mode pick that up. I have been having some problems with it. The error message in the event viewer states that it could not install the device because prompts have been suppressed. Any insight? Need more information? Please let me know. I'm trying to get this finalized for my company, since we have NO efficient means of deployment

Tomcat, I found something out. Were some of you installing the update for (Windows Internet Explorer). Note I did not put a version number. It is the wrong update. You need the one specifically for IE 7. I noticed that many, and I do mean many, people have had this issue, because the file is of a different version. I just tested 3 runs. Running perfectly. It is actually slipping the updates into an AIO installer for IE 7, and then running the installer after everything else has ran. Here is what I did to ensure it was working. 1) Check svcpack.inf to see if the IE7 install was running after the HFSLIP.CMD file. If it was, then root certs were installing first, and as far as I know, that is completely okay. 2) If its not there, move the IE 7 installer after the batch file. Have had absolutely no problems, and no critical updates needed.

Its not going to work, because if you slip the update, it runs before IE 7 is installed. Then, IE 7 will install over it. Then, the root certificates update will run over it. So... there's a major version conflict issue here. Run the Hotfix AFTER the IE 7 install manually in the slipstream process and see if that works.

Its not taking because the root certificates update runs after the IE_7 Installer (assuming you have it set to SVCPACK) and its overriding that file. If you don't install the root certificates update, you will have a successful install. The same would apply if it was integrated. Also, if you want the HF to run, I would put it in an already completed HFSLIP sourcess folder and update your svcpack.inf to reflect, making sure to stick the file information at the bottom of the list. Try this. If the latter doesn't work, take the Root Certificates out, and see from there. If you get it to work, let us know.
