OK.... I think I found my problem, was in wpi.cmd I changed REM Start WPI and wait for its end start /wait %windir%\system32\mshta.exe "%CD%\wpi.hta" to REM Start WPI and wait for its end start /wait WPI.hta

Hello all, I'm trying to seup a cd where the programs are installed from the CD. I really do not care if WPI is ran from the cd or not. My current problem is when XP logs in I get a dos window with the following errors: Found CD-Rom as drive D: 'WPIPATH' is not recognized as an internal or external command...blah blah It then goes on to complain that --start is not a command either. My tree looks like this: I have copied WPI.cmd into $OEM$\$1\Install Here is my WPI.cmd file, both copies of the file are the same. In generate.js I changed it to this: In my WINNT.SIF file I have the following at the bottom: [GuiRunOnce] %systemdrive%\install\wpi.cmd I have read and searched the boards. Which has brought me here. My first problem was WPI kept trying to install my programs from C:\install. After searching around I came up with the above. I'm sure I am missing something really stupid so if someone could please point it out, I would be happier then a pig in sh*t

Thanks for the help. I didn't realize XP's setup was so stupid that you needed to list the root dir for every driver. As for the chipset drivers being first. I already have them first, the SATA, gart, memctl are my chipset drivers. EDIT: Ok, I changed the line so it reads Drivers\*.*;Drivers\*.*; and so on. Now to make sure real quick. The driver folder is supposed to look like this "$OEM$\$1\Drivers\000_chip" ?

EDIT: I have no clue why I said chipset servers when I ment chipset drivers! Hello all. I'v been trying to make a XP PRO SP2 cd that has my nForce3 drivers on it but none of the drivers installed execpt for the SATA drivers. I placed all my drivers in "$OEM$\$1\Drivers" in sub folders starting with 000_ata, 001_gart, and so on. In the file winnt.sif, under Unattended I add the line "OemPnPDriversPath="Drivers\000_ATA;001_GART;002_MemCtl;003_SMBus;004_Ethernet;005_ATI"" Am I missing something? For the SATA drivers I used the storage Driverpack found here and just took out the ones I know I will never use. Now I noicted that it created a file in the root dir named txtsetup.sif with device ids for all the controllers. Do I have to add device ids for my chipset to this file? If so what group would it go under or does it all go under SCSI.Load and SCSI ? If you to know something that I forgot to add please let me know.... Thanks for any and all help.

YOu know, that was the post that made me think about putting diskeeper in, however... "Right Click on Diskeeper9_Professional.exe and extract to c:\temp folder" When I right click, winrar doesnt give me an option to extract and when I tried opening the exe in winrar it says something about it being an invaild file....

ok....I understand the subfolder crap now. Now if I can figure out why winrar wont extract diskeeper 9

So when you say windows wont search sub folders. You mean I cant have say drivers/gfx/nvidia drivers/gfx/ati and then have OemPnPDriversPath=drivers\gfx; ??

Greetings! Alright, I just got my new NEO2 Platinum (nforce3) and plan on doing a freah install next week. I figured If try to add the drivers to XP to save me some trouble but I'm a little confused. First I'v followed most of what this guide says. I then downloaded the driverpacks since I'll be installing to a SATA drive. Once it was all done with method 1, I did the following: 1) Move the $OEM$ folder created by the driverpack to the root dir of where I copied XP. In this case its /desktop/masterxpcd 2) I copied everything from the i386 dir to the xp i386 dir, I also copied txtsetup.sif to the root dir of my XP copy. 3) I deleted both the L and S folders because I dont need them. 4) I edited winnt.sif and added OemPnPDriversPath="Drivers\M\; Now this is were I get a little lost. Can I rename the folder from "m" to something else? When adding the folder to OemPnPDriversPath, do I just add the root folder name under /drivers or do I have to add lines for each subfolder as well? For my chipset drivers, can I just add the memcrtl, SMBus, and gart files all into one dir such as 001_chipset ? Do I have to add anything to txtsetup.sif?
