webmedic Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 I've set up my install cd with a whole passle of drivers for different things. I have included high point, silicone image, anf promise raid/ata133 drivers. I have via and nvidia drivers. Everything seems to be working well with the drivers but here is the only catch.The catalyst 3.6 controle panel and the nvidia sound controle panel will not install. Now the nvidia one is only an inf file to activate it. For that I can use this%SystemRoot%\System32\rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 %systemdrive%\drivers\nvidia\AudioUTL\nvautils.infso no problem there now for the hard part anybody have any ideas on seting up the installer to detect the nvidia audio and only install it if the mother board has nvidia audio. I think I have a hint how to do this but I want to run it by others first.nvax.sysis a file the the audio drivers copy to system32 so it should be as easy as checking for this file and if it is there then run the inf for the audio utils. Does that soung feasable to everybody?I'm however still stumped about the cat 3.6 controle panel. It simply wont install. I have made sure to use the setup.iss that Arronxp has listed here that he uses and it still will not do a silent install. I can still use the same trick though for weather or not to install them. Ah I still have a bunch of batch files around here for all the custom win98 cd's I made. I even have a script that will check for what drive the cdrom is I'm not sure if it will work with xp though.
Aaron Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 The ATI Control Panel drivers will only have a successfull installation if the Catalyst 3.6 drivers were installed during GUI-mode Setup
webmedic Posted August 18, 2003 Author Posted August 18, 2003 ah that explains it. I have them autoinstall durring install. The control panel will install fine if I install it manualy. Thanks for the info on that again.
Aaron Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 it should work during autoinstall if the catalyst drivers were installed via the OemPnPDriversPath
webmedic Posted August 18, 2003 Author Posted August 18, 2003 no it is not. I am installing them that way and the controle panle will not install. I have tried on both a radeon 9500 and a radeon 8500.
