573310 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Okay, so just updated my SP2 XP unattend installation, and this time I thought I'd try out nlite - great tool, makes this sooo much simpler - why didnt MS have something like this originally! Anyhoo, my problem is two fold, and i'm not really sure where to start troubleshooting. First things first, I added all the device specific drivers into the build thru nlite, however, during the GUI mode setup phase, when we are doing the device driver detection, i get the "Found new hardware" wizard pop up! The wizard has just detected the new display device, in this case, i'm testing on a Dell Inspiron 6000, so its the laptop screen. I haven't specificall included the device drivers for this, as it is a generic device and inbox drivers are fine. If I allow it to go through the autosetup / detect, it detects the plug and play monitor drivers and installs just fine. Obviously, this is not good for an unattended setup scenario. Why is this? Any suggestions? My second problem is a bit more tricky - during the first login post app install, I get an error message saying that one of my devices cannot be installed: see the attached screen shot. The specific error message is "Cannot install this hardware""There was a problem installing this hardware: SigmaTel C-Major AudioAn Error occured during the installation of this deviceA device attached to the system is not functioning.Click Finish to Close the Wizard. Subsequently, reviewing the device in control panel, it is marked with a yellow exclamation mark, and the errorThe Device is not configured correctly. To reinstall the drivers for this device correctly, click reinstall driver"If you do click 'reinstall driver' this wizard completes with the same error. If i install the driver manually, it installs just fine!In setupapi.log, i get the following error multiple times :#-166 Device install function: DIF_INSTALLDEVICE.#E151 Coinstaller 1 of 1 failed. Error 31: A device attached to the system is not functioning.#I060 Set selected driver.#-166 Device install function: DIF_INSTALLDEVICE.#E151 Coinstaller 1 of 1 failed. Error 31: A device attached to the system is not functioning.#-166 Device install function: DIF_INSTALLDEVICE.#E151 Coinstaller 1 of 1 failed. Error 31: A device attached to the system is not functioning.Nothing in the event log. Any Idea's? thanks 573310 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exrcizn Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 573310 - I'm having a similar problem I think. During the GUI part of my unattended install I get the Found New Hardware wizard at T-35. It sits there for about 3 minutes then goes away and continues the install. Everything's fine once the setup completes and I log in...no problems. It's good that it continues the install but it looks sloppy popping up on the screen. Can anyone offer any suggestions? This is making me crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollenthon Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 I'm no expert so I might be wrong but..If you put:DriverSigningPolicy = IgnoreNonDriverSigningPolicy = Ignorein your Winnt.sif it might solve your problems with devices that won't install properly..

So it's not the Driver Signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exrcizn Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 In my case the install eventually works it's just that the new hardware found screen appears and makes you think you need to interact with it but if you wait it goes on and installs. Ugly, very ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's finding the Plug and Play monitor (LCD Panel) Having the same problems as everyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InTheWayBoy Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 I run into that occassionaly, haven't tracked down why yet. I do know that if you let it sit there it will go through unattended. I just gave up and learned to live with it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snooz Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 You guys need to disable driver signing policy like Hollenthon mentioned and integrate the hardware drivers into your i386 flat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
