I am having a problem getting the drivers to copy during the copying process:

Dell workstations 690 uses SAS controller for there disk drives:
Link to drivers:
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/...p;fileid=163516

I am adding them during the Nlite process under drivers and it sees it as a mass storage device driver.

During windows installation, its able to see the drives and just not copy them.

But has a problem copying them:
delpseud.inf
mpixp32.cat
R122953.txt
symmpi.inf
symmpi.pdb
symmpi.sys
symmpi.tag

Any help would be nice.......

After many hours of research, figure it out:

Had to make the following changes, so the file would only load during boot.

Ok lets review this little closer.

Thing is that symmpi.sys has it's older brother in Windows SCSI removal component, that was the issue here.

Now tell me did you maybe integrated, then restarted nlite then removed components or it was all in one go, if so then we have a problem which needs fixing?
I presume you remove SCSI drivers? And you should, don't worry about that.

Note that this fix did not work for me. What did work was switching the BIOS setting to Autodetect RAID / SATA from Autodetect / AHCI.

I may change it back once Windows is installed, we'll see, but this got my Volume License Copy of Windows XP SP2 off the ground at least.
