SetDevicePath.exe & Drivers...

[millennium_bug]

Good work on the SetDevicePath.exe Pyron

Question: Can drivers be easily integrated if you have a folder structure like:

$OEM$\$1\Windows\Inf\Drivers\Video

$OEM$\$1\Windows\Inf\Drivers\Sound

$OEM$\$1\Windows\Inf\Drivers\Lan

$OEM$\$1\Windows\Inf\Drivers\MassStorage

It will copy all of the drivers inside the Windows\Inf folder.......

and do say "SetDevicePath.exe %systemroot%\inf"

theoretically (I haven't done this yet) it will scan all drivers under the Inf folder and subtree for the driver database...........

Not only would it save a few steps, but you won't need to delete any drivers like in the presetup.cmd (towards the end it changes from %SystemDrive%\Drivers to %SystemRoot%\Inf) file if you want to upgrade your hardware or something.............

I've thought of this myself too, but there's a big but: the point of an unattended installation CD is to reinstall Windows easily, right? Well, *I* would also use it when Windows is getting slower AND when I'm installing new hardware... It takes only half an hour, so what's the bother?

Just my 2 cents...
