I'll assume that this is under os/whateveros/i386/$oem$/$1 ? I've had a similar problem - it has to do with the windows installer, and how many directories it likes to traverse. I've found that I can only go 2 folders deeper than $1 - ie, I have a folder, dc8000 (separating by hardware), subfolder nvidia (install/os/winxpsp3/i386/$oem$/$1/dc8000/nvidia) and that is as deep as I can go. I just copied all the nvidia dll's into that folder, it has no subfolders, and it fixed the problem. When I was having the problem, I also noticed that I could manually copy it on the command line (although this was during the 4.5 / cvs days), but the windows installer would fail. Hope this helps. -- Jon Wilson ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ unattended-devel mailing list unattended-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/unattended-devel
