JakeY Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 G'day all Do I need to unpack some driver EXE files ( no other way to get inf files ) to use for intergratrion into my unattended xp cd , or do I just put the exe file into my driver folder and windows automatically runs it when it reaches that point of install ?If unpacking the exe file is needed , where can I find a program that does this within windows ? I have looked everywhere to no avail . Any help would be great CheersJake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeY Posted May 16, 2004 Author Share Posted May 16, 2004 Ignore my post , as I just realised that winrar ( after all these years of using it ) does it . How dumb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[BM]Crusher Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 don't forget that with many drivers, the .EXE driver installation archive will extract into a bunch of folderslike the Via 4in1, where you need folders likeOEMPnPDriversPath="Drivers\Via\Inf;Drivers\Via\XP;Drivers\Via\IDE" etc etcfor every sub-folder that contains an .INF file, you will need to specify that directory as part of the OEMPnPDriversPatha lot of the driver archives you can delete a whole bunch of stuff once extracted, like with the Via 4in1 driver that supports multiple OS's you can delete all the 9x, 2K and ME crap out of it...
