I think your OemPnPDriversPath is to long.

[Hortoulis]

I agree with u but thats just the way Bashrat's DriverPacks edited the winnt.sif file.

If thats the case, u r telling me that therez no way u can put all DriverPacks in an unattended dvd? Can ne1 pleasy verify? The only solution would be 2 drop some lines from OemPnpDrivers? Thnx in advance...

[glent]

rename the "drivers" folder to "D" and adjust the OemPnPDriversPath accordinally

[Screwz Luse]

Is it too long or is it because:

1.) There's no ending quote

2.) The last semi-colon isn't needed

? I'm just curious if those might be the problems. heh... Those are a lot of drivers. Might as well integrate 'em.

[Hortoulis]

Screwz Luse thnx 4 your observations, i'm on it...

And by the way u were right about the ending quote...

As far as the integation part is concerned we should pm each other

coz as i already told ya im new 2 the whole unattented procedure.

I Had This One Too !

Make Sure u Unchecked Word Wrap In Notepad Before U Burn The Image ..

This Worked For Me..

You're definetely using some ancient DriverPack. I switched to 'DP' months ago, and to 'D' a couple versions ago. Also check the DriverPacks BASE

[Hortoulis]

Bashrat i'm definetely not using some ancient version of your work. In fact i got v5052 a couple a days ago my friend. I selected method 2 and the winnt.sif file had been last edited only by your batch files. I dont know if theres anything else that should be done... Nobody's perfect. :XD

Sounds like you updated the Base install of his driverpacks, but not the individual driver packs. The code that makes the OemPnPDriversPath in his base, parses the directory tree of the uncompressed 7z files. That is where your problem lays, if you are using BTS's DP.
