• The installer (full install) create new dir structure
  Browse your Program files dir.
  \Program Files
  - - \Intel
  - - - \ANS
  - - - \DMIX
  - - - - - \Hlp
  - - - - - \Ressource
  - - - - - \uninst
  - - - \NCS2
  - - - - - \Agent
  - - - - - \WMIProv
  and install is logged in
  .\APPS\PROSETDX\2KXPWS03\install.log
  
• The driver only install does not produce any log file.
  

for both installs:

Just go to device manager and check the driver version & date

• Intel® PRO/1000 Gigabit Adapters E1000NT5.SYS DriverVer = 09/15/2004,8.1.8.0
  
• Intel® PRO Network Adapter e100b325.sys DriverVer = 08/19/2004,8.0.13.0
  

Check this registry branch

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Intel\Basedrivers

Install = Success

means you have successfully installed / updated your driver.

the dir structure is created but the driver version of my network adapter is still 8.0.13.0

strange...

• Intel® PRO Network Adapter e100b325.sys DriverVer  = 08/19/2004,8.0.13.0
  

You have the latest version for Intel PRO 100 NIC's.

Note that if you want to install the driver only (so not the utility/software), you can also use my DriverPack LAN.

i'm using your driverpacks..

lan, mass storage and sound..

and that is working great.

But i'm missing the utilities, and i want them installed..if it's possible

if it's not... no disaster

The utilities are not included. Imagine, if I would do add the utilities for every LAN driver... The size would multiply by at least 5... And the work to add them too...

But this does not mean you can't do that yourself. Just download the utility you need. Then make a batch file like this:

IF EXIST %systemroot%\system32\drivername.sys START /WAIT setup.exe

That will do the job.

Yeah your right, that's alot of work and space.

time to search for the utils if they are seperate downloadable

Thanks for the reply's..
