    The document describes DPMS Automatic Driver Detection software that automatically detects and loads the necessary mass storage driver during the Windows XP installation process from an ISO file on a USB drive. It generates virtual floppy disks in memory containing the drivers needed for AHCI/SATA/SCSI/RAID systems so a physical floppy disk is not required. The process involves copying files to the Easy2Boot boot drive, downloading the latest mass storage driver pack, extracting the files to the drive, and renaming an ini file. This allows installing XP directly from an ISO without needing to know or provide the specific F6 driver.

    DPMS Automatic Driver Detection (DPMS-ADD)for E2B ================================================= If installing XP to a system which has a SATA (AHCI), SCSI or RAID

    storage syste m, XP Setup will require a Mass Storage Driver. This driver is usually loaded from a Floppy disk manually when the user presses F6 when prompted during XP Setup. A common alternative is to 'inject' the drivers into the ISO file and make a new ISO. The E2B DPMS Automatic Driver Detection package automatically detects what drive r is required and generates the correct 'F6' virtual floppy disks in memory. You can thus install XP directly from an unaltered XP ISO file straight onto a syst em from a USB drive without needing to know what F6 driver is required or obtain the special F6 floppy disk. As the Virtual floppy disks are created in system m emory, you do not need a floppy disk drive either! Typical two virtual F6 floppy disks are generated: Floppy 0 = Causes XP to load a Ram Disk driver (e.g. FiraDisk or WinVBlock) Floppy 1 = Causes XP to load an OEM Mass Storage Driver for AHCI/SATA/SCSI/RAID Note that only the Mass Storage (disk) driver is installed. You will need to ins tall other drivers such as graphics, sound, network, etc. once XP has been insta lled. How to use the DPMS Update Package ================================== You should already have an up-to-date Easy2Boot V1 USB boot drive made (see www. rmprepusb.com Tutorial #72b for details). 1. Copy the DPMS folder to the root of your E2B boot drive to make a new folder at \_ISO\E2B\grub\DPMS. (some old E2B files in the grub folder may also be updated) 2. Download the latest Mass Storage Driver Pack for XP x86 NT5 from http://drive rpacks.net/driverpacks/windows/xp/x86/mass-storage e.g. Sep. 24 2012 Windows 200/XP/2003 x86 Mass Storage version=12.09 Click on the Download button which will download a Torrent file (e.g. DP_Mas sStorage_wnt5_x86-32_1209.7z) Use BitTorrent (or your favourite Torrent app) to downlaod the .7z file Use 7Zip to unpack the file 3. Extract the contents of the 7zip file to your USB pen at \_ISO\E2B\grub\DPMS. 4. Rename the file at \_ISO\E2B\grub\DPMS\DriverPack_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32.ini to \_ISO\E2B\grub\DPMS\DriverPack.ini E2B Folder structure for DPMS is: \_ISO\E2B\grub\XPStep1.g4b \_ISO\E2B\grub\XPStep2.g4b \_ISO\E2B\grub\DPMS\dpms2.bat \_ISO\E2B\grub\DPMS\chkpci \_ISO\E2B\grub\DPMS\fat \_ISO\E2B\grub\DPMS\inifile \_ISO\E2B\grub\DPMS\E2B_DPMS_ReadMe.txt (this file) \_ISO\E2B\grub\DPMS\FIRA Firadisk driver folder

    \_ISO\E2B\grub\DPMS\WINV WinVBlock driver folder \_ISO\E2B\grub\DPMS\D folder (no files) \_ISO\E2B\grub\DPMS\D\M folder containing lots of driver folders (e.g. I3, I4, V , etc.) extracted by you from the DP_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32_XXXX.7z) Note: The files oem0.txt and oem1.txt will contain copies for the two oemsetup.txt fil es used by the previous install. The files dir0.txt and dir1.txt will contain directory listings of the two flopp ies. These files can be inspected after an unsuccessful install or sent to me for pro blem solving - do not change their size or delete them. email: rmprep@gmail.com Donations for this software can be made via PayPal - please visit the website to make a donation if you enjoy using this software!
