When I run the .EXE file, it does not ask you where I'd like to save the files. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get to the drivers? I've been using nLite and RyanM's integrator to make my XP CDs. TIA

Generally, when programs don't allow you to specify where to extract the files to, they dump them somewhere in the temporary files.
