Nlite driver installation

[fuligin]

Hi everyone, I am trying to make a new nlite, so far i have slipstreamed the service pack, and added the hotfixes from RyanVm. Now im at the stage of integrating the drivers. How do i integrate the orginal drivers that come with normal XP installation. The main purpose of this task is to integrate the battery drivers which were not working earlier. I have tried to locate everything from the i386 folder, am i on the right track or is there something else that i need to do inorder to integrate normal drivers?

It's not very clear to me why integrate, why not keep instead?

just use an original xp/2000 disc to copy it across again and this time don't remove the battery driver..

Use a tool like double driver to backup your original Windows drivers, then re-integrate.

nuhi, I too choose to remove drivers, then re-integrate the backups, as I gather this will save more space - e.g. a driver for one manufacturer of network card, rather than several drivers for various brands.

Cheers,

James

Thank you for your fast help guys.

so i understand that assuming i only use the integrate drivers section for adding additional drivers. All typical drivers that are avaible with the xp cd will be installed with the os by defualt, unless i choose to delete them prior to creating my bootable OS CD

yup

exactly right, you tick the things you want to remove, so don't tick the battery driver
