Lost In Drivers From DVD


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

I want to implement my drivers into my install DVD but just can't get it working. My CDROM drive is a fixed station (E:\) and in the root I will have a folder called Drivers.

I tried the Firegeier's tutorial but keep getting a error during setup (could not load boot essential drivers). I don't want to inject my drivers, so that I can change my Driver folder in case there are updates, all I have to do is change the files in this folder and reburn my DVD.

1. How can I point my answer file to search for E:\Drivers and at what stage? (I actually used %CDROM%\Drivers in my code)

2. Also, My folder location makes profile on the right drive (D:\) but not into D:\MyUsers, but into D:\Users... how to fix?? Apparently the folder is D:\MyUsers, but displayed as Users... go figure....
