Unwonted Posted August 3, 2003 Share Posted August 3, 2003 You could just extact the WinXP folder from it and have it installed like any other device. The .inf file is in there. Unless there are files you need for setup on the drives attatched to the controller, you shouldn't need it during Windows setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To install these drivers you could use 2 different way : 1st method)a) Create a folder $OEM$/Textmode Copy "TXTSETUP.OEM" + the files from "WinXP" folder of your driver ( "ultra.sys", "ultra.inf", "ultra.cat" ) in $OEM$\Textmode modify the "winnt.fis" and add the appropriate "[MassStorageDrivers]" and "[OEMBootFiles]" sections(All the info needed for that are in the TXTSETUP.OEM file from your driver ). ----2nd method) a) Simply copy your driver files (the one from the "WinXP" folder of your driver ) in $OEM$\$1\Drivers\ULTRATX2, and add "$OEM$\$1\Drivers\ULTRATX2" to your winNT .sif (exactly like an other driver ). modify "/I386/txtsetup.SIF" & copy your "ultra.sys" file in /I386/.For some person, 1st method doesn't works... (I had to use the second one ). I gave a more complete explaination of those 2 methods in this previous post (read my first AND my second message ): http://www.MSFN.org/board/index.php?act=ST&f=70&t=7454bye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
