It will copy everything. (btw the size of the drivers isn’t that big. I have for approximately 150 computers 1 ris installation with all the drivers I need for all the machines. These take about 200 MB of discspace.) And second: after the installation you can delete the whole driver directory manually or use a script (can be found on unattended.msfn.org).   The second thing you can do is make a installation image per computer type. But this will take much more diskspace.   I hope I helped you guys  a bit.   Greets,   Marek Tyc   Van: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Namens Kevin P.

Any driver under that directory is to be automatically installed     Regards   Mark Gibbons
