Ive incorporated my raid drivers from floppy onto my winxp cd by using
winnt.sif unattended installation So i dont have to put a floppy in at all. Ive even got my windows updates on cd so when it boots to the desktop for the first time it installed them via a batch file. Also windows media player, dx9, winrar, mouse driver, raid windows drivers. Ken "Tim" wrote in message ... Better still, Get MS to support loading drivers from other than floppy's. IE CD. Get the drivers into the next XP service pack when WHQL'd. Ok, not easy for new chipsets... M/b manufacturers could better coordinate driver / bios versions with clearer statements on dependancies. Flames don't help. A considerable number of people have had *real* trouble with F6 driver installs on numerous m/b's with on at least one occasion the driver files not being laid out correctly. This is not just a Gigabyte problem... - Tim "Richard Dower" wrote in message ... "Ken" wrote in message u... Yep im with peter on this one. They should at leased supply a floppy. I got the 8knxp. But also bought an abit IC7 max 3 and a floppy was supplied by them Email them and suggest it to them for a future board release. |
