How would I go about putting the drivers.cab pack in uncompressed or compressed with almost no compression for quicker setup??

Would this work?

I have like 320 megs of space to use.

I want to make setup much quicker and my disk is used on multiple systems for both new install and recovery, up-grade reinstalls and nlite was only used to merge driver cabs...

Use the Microsoft utility cabarc. You can cab single files, muliple files (like driver.cab & sp2.cab). There are command line options (like -m LZX for compression, etc.) ex., cabarc -r -m LZX:21 n driver.cab *.* makes a cabinet file named driver.cab of the unpacked driver.cab files using LZX compression (21 for max compression) It's simple but effective. It's part of the Microsoft Cabinet Development Kit. It runs from the command line in XP. Just make sure you read the information on command line usage. Just google it and you'll find it to download.
