sysprep.inf

[gimpmaster]

Hello all, I'm having a nightmare.....I have created a sysprep.inf file in XP and have added a new folder structure to cater for differing VGA/Sound/NIC drivers, but when ever I run sysprep.exe it never installs the drivers that I have made available, I create the sysprep.inf logged in as local administrator.

I run sysprep as sysprep.exe -mini -quiet - reboot

I have also tried it with the -pnp switch too

I know the drivers I have put into the folders are correct as afterwards they install fine and dont ask any driver signing questions when Windows XP SP 2 detects new hardware and I send Windows the the releative identifed hardware device as below.

The devices in the folders are as follows

Intel82945G VGA (No Subfolders)

BroadCom NeteXtreme (No Subfolders)

RealTek High Definition Audio Driver (No SUbfolders)

folder structure on c:\ is

$oem$

------$1

------Drivers

------IntelVGA

------BroadComNIC

------SoundMaxSound

In each folder I have placed the drivers and subfolders relating to those drivers if there was any subfolders.

The sysprep files and answerfile are in a folder called sysprep

my sysprep.inf looks like
