I have an Unattended Install of SP2, for my division, which has 100+ computers. We have Dell's (GX260, GX270, GX280 and many others) as well as gateways. I was reading articles and wanted to know if there was a way to slipstream in the drivers into the installation. Like patch windows xp with the drivers so that i don't have to worry about installing them later. (Like when you patch or slipstream in SP2 and it integrates itself into the installation). Does anyone know of any articles that explain how to do that, rather than using a winnt.sif file for it. Thank You

id say try using nlite it will work them into the driver cab file

Try reading the guide here on MSFN for setting up an Unattended install, i'll give you a hint though:

Read the section titled: Drivers via WINNT.SIF

especially this line: OemPnPDriversPath=

It's all there you just gotta read thru it, trust me your better off reading it all to make sure you understand rather than just getting a little snippet.

Good Luck hope this helps.

Try my DriverPacks

An important note: it seems that there are problems with some SoundMAX controllers used in Dell computers. You might want to add those. Use the tutorial 'how to make your own DriverPack' and you will have done this job in at most one day
