driver issues with an unattended upgrade


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello,

I have ~500 Dells that shipped with XP, but I had to image them to 2k for an incompatibility of one application :) . This issue has been resolved, and I would like to now do an upgrade without enduser involvement, instead of a reimage, because of short staffing.

I have created my administrative share, my DU share, and I can successfully schedule a machine to remotely do an upgrade. The only issue is with drivers.

I have 2 devices (Intel gigabit nic and NVIDIA Geforce 4) that I cannot get xp to install correctly. I have tried the OEMPREINSTALL option, but I am doing an upgrade (NTUPGRADE=YES). I can successfully copy the drivers to the computer using the winnt32.exe switch (/copydir:i386\drivers), but not when using the "$oem$/$1/drivers" in my i386.

Here is my winnt32 command line:

\\srvr\winxp$\i386winnt32.exe /unattend:\\srvr\winxp$\unattend.txt /copydir:i386\drivers /makelocalsource

here is my unattend.txt

[Unattended]
NTupgrade = yes
UnattendMode=FullUnattended
OemSkipEula=Yes
DUDisable = No
DUShare = \\srvr\installs\du
DriverSigningPolicy = ignore
OemPnPDriversPath = drivers\dell\nic;drivers\dell\vid
WaitForReboot=No

[UserData]
ProductKey = xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
FullName="XXXXXXX"
OrgName="XXXXXXX"

[Components]
; MSN Explorer
MSNExplr=off
; Windows Messenger
MSMsgs=off
Chat = off
Dialer = off
OEAccess = off
Zonegames = off
WMAccess = off


[Shell]
DefaultThemesOff = Yes
DefaultStartPanelOff = Yes

[TerminalServices]
AllowConnections = 1

[PCHealth]
ER_Display_UI = 0
ER_Enable_Applications = none
ER_Enable_Kernel_Error = 0
ER_Enable_Reporting = 0
ER_Enable_Windows_Components = 0

[GuiUnattended]
OEMSkipWelcome = 1]

I have tried adding the OEMPREINSTALL=YES (even though I have the NTUPGRADE=YES), but it still is not working.

Any ideas?
