Of course I find a possible solution moments after sending this message. :)
I launched the setup program for the PROSet application and it extracted files to c:\IntelPROSet. After that a splash screen came up offering to install the software or make a diskette. Hmm. So I made the diskette and used the drivers from it to install the network card in the Device Manager and it worked like a champ. So now I've copied those drivers into the OS folder of choice and I'm trying again. Will let you all know what happens. -----Original Message----- From: Ty Moffett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 10, 2004 11:43 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: [Unattended] Dell Dimension XPS Gen 2 network driver issues. This is driving me up the wall. I have downloaded the drivers from Dell for this system (which happens to be a Intel Pro/1000 MT) and included them in the I386\$OEM$\$1 folder of the only OS I have for installation (XP Pro SP2). I made sure on the latest attempt to only select the folder with these network drivers and nothing else so I wouldn't exceed the 1024 character limit in the unattend.txt file. No dice. I repeated the process but this time used the drivers directly from Intel. The driver pack they have includes drivers for 20+ adapters including all of the gigabit adapters from what I could see. After Windows is installed I believe I have to use the setup program that comes with the drivers and installs Intel PROSet. Is there a way around this? Can anyone offer any advice? ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.
