How do make XPe use C:\windows\i386 intead of asking for a CD everytime a
device driver is installed?
 
Jason,
That would be a registry entry -
I don't recall if the keypath is different in embedded then in XP Pro,
however if you have regedit installed on your image, open and do search for
"d:\i386" <of course substitute d with the drive letter that pertains to the
CD-ROM>.
I believe it is:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup
The keyname is "SourcePath"
You would modify the key to c:\windows\i386.

Hope this helps,

Hi Jason

The device.cab is not part of XP-Embedded.

So you have to add all the drivers in Target Designer.

If you want to ship all drivers in XP-E, then you have to select all

the drivers in Target Designer and include them into your image.

Happy drag-and-dropping........ (ok, also scrips available...)
