Removing drivers, adding custom.

[j0achim]

Hiya!

Im working on setting upp WDS 2008 and a custom Windows XP image and are having a few issues.

Our firm is mid size, 100 pc's or so, bulks of about 20 same model. So iwe extracted the drivers from all (ending upp with a list of 420 signatures (with spdrvscn.exe found @ vernalex.com), all drivers are extracted with a driver extraction tool).

As iwe keept on building upon the same image now a few times, is there any way i can clear the driver "database" on the mashine. Iwe read somewhere its stored inn the registry?

Because now i keep gettting "file not found" while running the Mini-Setup. But file exists, just moved to a new folder. (had to remake the folder structure)

Solved.

Cleared:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\DevicePath

And ran the driver tool again so it added all the "new" drivers.

And mapped this:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SourcePath

to its correct path.
