Driver format help with sysprep unattended install

[Stiganator]

Well guys I am doing what most of you are on here. I want one image to work with 4-5 different models of computers. I got the HAL thing all worked out with the hacpi hal so that is kosher. My problem is with what format the drivers should be in. Currently they are .inf and such and my OemPnPPath looks like "roughly"

OemPnPPath = "dell\drivers\R45323\;dell\ICH5\" etc. There is a .inf in each ot those folders. Some I had to create from extracted archives with a -A or -N switch. I have the install do random name generation after it is ghosted. Then I follow up with a second ghost task to change the config info to what they should be. This is how I optimally would like it to work, but I end up with a 640x480 screen, which tell me the video drivers didn't install. And the second task can't run because the NIC drivers won't install either.

After reading through the forms a bit I saw mention of .iss files, which I am unfamiliar with. Are these important?

Any help would be appreciated.
