If you working with only one PC - simply create a disk image (Norton Ghost, Acronis True Image, etc.) after you installed SP2, updates, drivers and all your software and restore your Windows from that image when necessary. It's much faster.

YES! RyanVM Update Pack 1.3.1 + All latest DriverPacks + BIOSTAR NF325-A7 (nForce3 250) + SATA HDD = BSOD + PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00E5&CC_0101 = "pciide" =

If you have a time to waste (about 10 hours ) and want to reduce i386 folder by few more kilobytes, you can try to repack all CABed files in i386 folder using best possible options. Check this out.

A script to repack all CABed files ( *.*_ )in a folder using best packing options. For compression I've used CabArc.exe (MS Cabinet Tool), so it must be on your system. Please, check if you have CabArc.exe on your system, or script will not work !! Script is very slow and maybe not so useful, but anyway, here it is. MaxCAB.rar

Taigi ir klausiu, ar tas tavo skriptas tiesiog maniskio konvertuota versija su InstallShield AdminStudio pagalba, ar ji sukurei kokiu kitu budu. Tiesiog neturiu po ranka to InstalShield'o ir negaliu pabandyt. Orca skripto neoptimizuoja, priesingai - po kiekvieno pataisymo jis tik puciasi... Manau, kad konvertavai, nes panasios klaidos matosi ir tavo versijoj ;-) (Sorry - technical details...) Yes, you can run it from a batch file. 7za.exe & batch file must be in the PATH.

Is this script a installshield adminsutio "Open / Save As" version of the bigger one, or it's based on some other method?

I've made smaller SFX module 7zSD_AR.sfx (based on 7z 4.26b 7zSD.sfx) sized only 42002 bytes (attached to this post). Smaller configuration script... ;!@Install@!UTF-8! RunProgram="msistub AR703.msi /qb-!" ;!@InstallEnd@! ...based on smaller installer stub msistub.exe (only 2560 bytes). It has a little different command line syntax compared to a popular StartX.exe (167936 bytes) , but does the same job in this case. Archive is packed with 7z 4.26b and specially tweaked packing options to achieve better compression for this set of files. 7z command line looks like this: 7za.exe a -r -t7z -m0=BCJ2 -m1=LZMA:d24:fb255:a2:lc7:mf=bt3 -m2=LZMA:d19:fb128:a2:lc0:lp2:mf=bt3 -m3=LZMA:d19:fb128:a2:lc0:lp2:mf=bt3 -mb0:1 -mb0s1:2 -mb0s2:3 AR703.7z I have no time to tweak installer script ar703.msi. I’ve only made basic changes with Orca. There are a lot of useless options inside the script, and it definitely must be tweaked. I'd like to see your version of the script (Hope it’ll work as good as full version). arstub.rar

1. UpdateChecker_V5081.cmd is broken: Can't find UpdateChecker_V50811.cmd 2. 7za.exe outdated

By the way, properly packed version with msvcp71.dll & no desktop icon can be as small as 6.09Mb. Take a look: http://rapidshare.de/files/4123843/ar703a.exe.htmlBut for my Unattended Windows XP CD I'll not use this version, because, as I said, the missing file is installed by another application and there is no need to duplicate it twice.

Yes, I know. I've intentionally removed this file, because this is very common DLL installed by many applications like MS Office 2003 or Symantec Antivirus 10. If you have an application on your unattended CD that installs this Visual C++ DLL (like me) there is no need to duplicate it here. So, this is up to you to include it or not.

Yes, we know. Yes, it's light, it's fast, but Foxit displays wrong (I mean - a little different) a lot of PDFs. So, I wait till it'll be more compatible with original Adobe Reader... And yes, it has even less functionality than striped down Adobe Reader Lite ;-)

A lot of things have been removed, so there is only minimum left needed to read common PDF files. If you'll find something really important missing - let me know.

Adobe Reader 7.0.3 English Lite Unattended 6Mb uploaded here: http://rapidshare.de/files/4076049/AR703.exe.html The AcroForm.api file fixed by 7.0.3 update is not a part of Adobe Reader Lite Unattended. So there is no big difference between 7.0.2 Lite and 7.0.3 Lite except version number & repacking to squeeze few kilobytes even more.

EPoX 8KDA7I (nForce3-250) + BTS BASE v5.07.7 + MassStorage v5.07.3 = BSOD

I need to add support for more lossless audio formats to WinAMP (Monkey's Audio, etc.). Is there a way to auto-integrate new extensions (.APE, .APL, .MAC, ...) at unattended install time?

I saw no Windows choking in previous 5.04 version and there were no FETODI.COM and FETND.DOS, but drivers installed properly and with no errors. So I assume, there is no need for Win98/Me drivers to be present in DriverPaks for XP... Anyway, when I done WindowsUpdate, MS sends for me CAB file with only 4 files inside: 3 of them I have posted before, and vuins32.dll which has not changed since Driver Pack 5.04. So I assume there only these files are needed for XP (I use Method2 always): netvt.cat FETODI.COM vuins16.dll vuins32.dll WINNDI.DLL FETND.DOS FETNDIS.inf FETND3.sys FETND4.sys FETND5AV.sys FETND5BV.sys Sorry now I have o possibility to test - Windows was successfully installed with Driver Pack 5.04 and PC went to client.

1. There is no big deal to search for a driver when all newest drivers can be found in one place here: http://www.station-drivers.com/page/drivers.htm 2. I agree with buletov: Modem Driver Pack is a good idea. You'll get a lot of BSOD here. 3. Monitors Driver Pack is welcome.

Was an error on line 587, now it travel to line 599. Do you ever bother to fix errors that have been reported ?? http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=41308&st=500

I run these z7.bat ant z7e.bat files with arguments (like archive name, etc.) so %1, %2, ... are replaced by these arguments. No, command line is good. I use it since 2004.03.24 (last modification date of my .BAT file) This version saves ~1% on MassStorage, ~2% on LAN Pack and some other packs benefits a little bit. But not all of them. Don't remember now which of them. Now about DRIVER Pack 5.05: 1. You just added 2 obsolete Win98/Me files D\L\V\1\FETODI.COM and D\L\V\1\FETND.DOS and replaced 3 other with the same I have posted here. Tested on a machine that uses these drivers. 2. Just rechecked D\L\LI\4\MFC42.DLL D\L\LI\4\MSVCRT.DLL drivers. They are not digitally signed because BCM42XX.CAT file is empty. So you can edit .inf and don't worry. I've removed them from my copy...

2. It's a good reason not to modify .inf. Anyway - the driver is too exotic and takes too much space 3. From the first hands - author of 7z. I have made 2 bat files and always repacking twice - using standard LZMA packing and Branch Converted LZMA packing. The last one is slower to pack, but is optimized on 32-bit x86 executables and sometimes wins a compression ratio by few percent. z7.bat: 7za a -r -mx9 -t7z -ms -mhc -m0=LZMA:a2:d26 %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 z7e.bat: 7za a -r -t7z -m0=BCJ2 -m1=LZMA:d24:fb255:a2:lc7:mf=bt3 -m2=LZMA:d19:fb128:a2:lc0:lp2:mf=bt3 -m3=LZMA:d19:fb128:a2:lc0:lp2:mf=bt3 -mb0:1 -mb0s1:2 -mb0s2:3 %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 4. WindowsUpdate sends only 4 files, 3 of them were different from ones included in last DriverPack. These 3 files were attached.
