MtK Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 Hi,is it possible to integrate this patch to be installed before drivers installation stage?(I need this for my Sound Card) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcemanND Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 If you find a way let me know. I spent 3 weeks emailing back and forth with M$ without any solution. I gave up and install it first from Runonce then install my sound card drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcemanND Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 You got more out of them than I did. They wouldn't even say that you could do it via svcpack.inf when I was trying.They just told me to run it after the install was complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bâshrat the Sneaky Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Huh? I already told you how to do it, MtK...You should just put all the files in the I386 directory, also the portcls.sys file. You can compress them if you want.Then add the necessary entries to the dosnet.inf file. (Check RyanVM's updatepack manual instructions for that)Last, but most importantly: add this to your dosnet.inf file:[ForceCopyDriverCabFiles]portcls.sysand the new portcls.sys in the i386 directory will be used.Of course you could also just use RyanVM's updatepack, which will simply update driver.cab...

I will try it on my next attempt... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcemanND Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 It would be nice that if M$ providea a patch with the /integrate: swith that it would actually integrate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanVM Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 My only thought has been to run it as a DetachedProgram called by winnt.sif so that the relevant files are copied before hardware detection. I don't know if it would actually work, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanVM Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 You need a guide on how to use the /integrate switch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtK Posted April 17, 2005 Author Share Posted April 17, 2005 Of course not, I just thought, the /integrate switch won't install the hotfix before drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
