i had previously been using the TXTSETUP.SIF method of integrating the NVRAID drivers. this would work fine in the TEXTMODE portion of setup, but once the GUIMODE setup had completed, i would get bluescreens/reboots trying to load windows for the first time. the problem was a result of the NVIDIA NForce Storage Controller not being installed during GUIMODE. since driver is not WHQL certified, setup prioritized the installation of its own Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE Controller. after a lot of playing around, i have managed to successfully integrate the NVRAID drivers onto an x64 unattended cd. i used the 7.12 PATARAID IDE drivers from the MSI website. please refer to GreenMachine's Space for instructions on how to make the appropriate changes for the TEXTMODE portion of setup. these were the additions i made to TXTSETUP.SIF: CODE [SourceDisksFiles] nvatax64.sys = 1,,,,,,3_,4,1 nvrdx64.sys = 1,,,,,,3_,4,1 [HardwareIdsDatabase] "GenNvRaidDisk" = "nvrdx64" "*_NVRAIDBUS" = "nvrdx64" "*NVRAIDBUS" = "nvrdx64" "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_008E" = "nvatax64" "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0085" = "nvatax64" "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00D5" = "nvatax64" "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00EE" = "nvatax64" "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00E3" = "nvatax64" "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00E5" = "nvatax64" "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0035" = "nvatax64" "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0036" = "nvatax64" "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_003E" = "nvatax64" "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0053" = "nvatax64" "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0054" = "nvatax64" "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0055" = "nvatax64" [SCSI.load] nvatax64 = nvatax64.sys,4 nvrdx64 = nvrdx64.sys,4 [SCSI] nvatax64 = "NVIDIA NForce Storage Controller" nvrdx64 = "NVIDIA RAID CLASS DRIVER" to successfully install the NVIDIA NForce Storage Controller in GUIMODE: place the following files in X:\$OEM$\$$\OEMDIR CODE idecoi.dll 317440 17:30.14 2005-05-12 nvatax64.inf 4125 17:28.00 2005-05-12 nvatax64.sys 147968 17:30.14 2005-05-12 add the following lines to WINNT.SIF: CODE [Data] OemDrivers=OemInfFiles [OemInfFiles] OemDriverFlags=1 OemDriverPathName="%SystemRoot%\OemDir" OemInfName="nvatax64.inf" please let me know if you are successfully able to use this method. |

@Jackrip5: if you are using this method to install on your NVRAID, it should not interfere with any existing OemPnPDriversPath entries. |
