Hi I have a job coming up on an old XP laptop with no USB booting on it. I have been busy preparing a Bootable DVD for it which autoloads my updated universal ghost image of XP (as per shirin's guide). I have successfully booted the ISO in VMWARE however on my test machine the CD/DVD drive is not detected & fails. I'd really like to test it on a physical system before taking it to a project. I have added as many 'generic' cd drivers to the floppy image but still nothing can find it. Given that I am adding this to my collection of useful USB / CD's I want to make the DVD as compatible with as many CD/DVD rom's as possible.
Can some one point me in the right direction. Here is my config sys so far, are there other drivers to try? Perhaps a better method altogether?
These are the ones I found so far. Config.sys DEVICE=himem.sys /testmem:off /v DEVICE=oakcdrom.sys /D:cd0 DEVICE=BTCDROM.SYS /D:cd0 DEVICE=ASPICD.SYS /D:cd0 devicehigh=gscdrom.sys /D:cd0 LASTDRIVE = Z autoexec LH MSCDEX.EXE /D:cd0 /L:X pause ghost.bat thanks team! If you use the CD as 'boot disc', the BIOS can (obviously) provide a driver for it. The El-Torito emulation image on the CD is booted by BIOS services allright, and NO driver is used for it. So the solution is simply to forget the 'rest of the CD' and use ONLY the El-Torito floppy emulation part. Until a very short time ago, everyone was convinced that you could have at the most a 2.88 Mb image. Recently it has been found that a much larger image can be used, up to around 35 Mb, in bytes 37,748,736.
Since the dawn of time it has been possible to have DOS+GHOST in 2.88 Mb, but if you need more space, see here: But of course this won't be useful in your case if not as a 'kicker' to use the USB. Hello, forgive my ignorance here, as I'm really not sure the different methods this thing can be booted. However, I remember way back in the beginning of 2010, I got this thing to boot from a dvd and autorestore. I also wanted to create a sort of universal cd thing where, no matter which laptop/desktop I put this thing in to it must boot.
Hello, I'll post the files later tomorrow, as it is on another hdd, not currently with me. Sorry about that.
As for your other question: I can only assume with the batch file that /l: would be the drive that is assigned the CDRom. So maybe if you changed it to /x:%CDROM% because, if I remember correctly, I didn't assign any letter in the file to run the ghost followed by the commands to restore the image. If I were you, I wouldn't assign it specificly to /d:cd12 because: assuming from what I can make out of the batch file is no matter what cd it is, be it /d:cd1 2 3. If it finds the driver it will assign it to assume l: appoligies for not giving clear exact help here, but the way I've tried to make sense of it, is currently working, and although I only tested this out on a few desktops/laptops (including cd/dvdroms with sata) it all seems to work ok. But I'll post the files tomorrow and we'll see what can happen here. Read the thread and its pretty complicated i get the idea some one got 23gb image to boot off a bli ray disc but how?
3 gb would do me lol thanks No, you might have 'skimmed through it', but you didn't actually read it. I should have said, read the thread, take some time understanding it's contents and repeat the experiemnts suggested. In that thread there are:. info on how to make the biggest possible El-torito emulation bootable floppy image. an actual pre-made empty image. a small batch to re-create it.
TWO different methods to create a.iso from that floppy image Now, you are not anymore a newbie, you should be well able to replicate those experiments with the info provided without the need for further spoon feeding, if you really want to. You can load a cdrom driver from DOS, so you could try several different ones or have a batch file that loads the cdrom on demand. You need to have something like pcdos's dynaload.com or something that loads a device driver from the command prompt. The command is something like this. LH loads the device driver high.
LH dynaload.com d:pathcdrom.sys /d:cdrom001. Mscdex.exe /d:cdrom001 /l:s I normally set the drive letter high in cases like this, like r: for ramdrive, and s: for cdrom0. Cdrom1 can be t: etc. It's what OS/2 does. Usually a bootdisk image will do just fine. Standard size for those is 1.44MB, though other sizes are allowed/possible as well. Bootable CDs have a few options: 1) use el-torito harddisk emulation with a huge harddisk image file so you won't need to load CD drivers to access most/all content of the CD 2) use el-torito floppy emulation with a bootdisk image.
The floppy will need to contain controller-specific drivers for the optical device you're booting from if you not only want access to the standard fake A: drive but also want to access the rest of the CD contents. Which driver to use, depends on through which hardware you're booting your CD. Booting from USB requires USB drivers, booting from IDE or SATA requires standard IDE drivers (like OAKCDROM.SYS, VIDE-CDD.SYS or freely available UIDE.SYS) 3) use el-torito non-emulation mode. This basically comes down to using GRUB or SYSLINUX as bootloader, followed by loading a disk image into system memory as fake diskette (or harddisk) drive. To gain access to the rest of the latest booted CD (or ISO9660 filesystem) you can use ELTORITO.SYS, no matter which (type of) device you booted your disk from.
Loading controller-specific drivers afterwards though might mess things up a bit. I tend to use a (FreeDOS) bootdisk image with in it:; this is config.sys DEVICE=UIDE.SYS /D:FDCD0001 @ECHO OFF echo Assigning drive X: from autoexec.bat to FDCD0001, might be one or more physical units present! SHSUCDX /D:FDCD0001 /L:X slightly more complex though in my case.
Hi all, I am building a new system using the case and power supply of my old. As you can see, I'm getting this infamous Windows 7 error. I have checked the SATA controller and it says AHCI. Changed it to RAID and still got the error. I downloaded the Intel SATA Preinstall driver from the Gigabyte website and burned it to a DVD. Windows did not find the driver. Inserting the DVDs that came with the mobo or SSD did not change anything.
Setup: Gigabyte Z170XP- SLI, 16 GB Ripskill RAM (which the BIOS does see). Core I5 6500, and Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB SSD. Connected to Sata Port 1. EVGA GTX 750ti video card with monitor connected to the video card.
Installing from Windows 7 Home Premium DVD on an external DVD writer connected to a USB 2.0 port. I had this problem installing windows via USB with no DVD drive attached. What I had to do was load Windows on the USB stick. Then create a folder on the USB stick with all the drivers for the motherboard. I started the install and when Windows couldn't find the driver it needed I unplugged the USB stick and plugged it into a different USB port and navigated to where I had saved the motherboard drivers. This was more than 2 years ago and I'm not quite sure which driver it needed.
I just clicked on dlls until I got one that worked. I think it was a SATA or AHCI driver. I've tried canceling out, going back to the welcome screen and switching USB ports. What's odd is that if I try a different disk and hit rescan, then browse, nothing changes. The same four directories are shown. It's like it doesn't interact with the dvd writer, although I hear the writer spin up. I guess I'll try a bootable USB So you're trying to install windows from the DVD drive or a USB stick?
If its from the USB stick when you get to the part where you have to browse for the driver file. Before you click browse unplug the USB and plug it into a different port. Make sure the drivers folder is not in the windows install folder. Free movies direct download links. The SATA controller should be kept in AHCI mode. Download the latest f6flpy-x64.zip driver file from Intel's web site: There are two files that are needed, although you can place all six files onto the USB flash drive: iaAHCIC.cat iaAHCIC.inf During the Windows 7 install process it will ask you if you want to add any other storage controller drivers. If you choose to do so and the USB flash drive with the driver files mentioned above is plugged into a USB port then you should see the AHCI driver listed.

Thanks for the pics! Thats awesome. My install seems a little different. I never see the first panel, where it asks me where I want to install windows, so maybe that's part of the problem. Tried reformatting to FAT32 using a small USB with the drivers on it, but Windows wouldn't recognize it.
Reformatting the 16GB USB to FAT32 is taking quite a long time. Will the windows 7 USB/DVD tool reformat back to NTFS when it copies the ISO? Edit: Yes, the Windows 7 USB/DVD tool reformats back to NTFS when it copies the ISO. Here is a link to album View post on imgur.com These are the four main screens I see when trying to install. Between the 2nd and 3rd pics is a brief screen that says 'Setting up files', but I didn't include a picture of that. The fourth pic shows the view after hitting browse. No matter was is plugged into the USB port, all I see is Boot drive X.
Next update and I've gone backwards. I decided something was wrong with only seeing Boot Drive X, so I went to Dr Google.
Found a youtube video about the error. It directed me to do the following: Go back to the install screen and select repair computer. (At this point I noticed an option to load drivers, which I hadn't seen on other panels.) I picked Command Prompt. Then performed, diskpart - list disk.
One disk showed, my SSD. Then Select Disk 0 - clean - create partition primary - format fs=NTFS quick. Still got the error about Cd/Dvd drivers. Went back to Repair computer and tried the Load driver option. The C and X drives appeared but nothing else. Tried the FAT32 USB drive in the front ports, nothing. Tried it int he back USB 3.0 Port and screen turned yellowish.
Still didn't show up. Went to repair computer and noticed an option to repair drives. It went through stuff (The error codes seemed to be 0x0 but I only glanced at them) and it said something about a partition had an error and it fixed it.
Turned off the computer- only holding the power button down worked. Now nothing happens when the computer turns on.
No Gigabyte splash screen, nothing. Did I completely screw every thing up? Thanks ko888, I'll take a look at it when the RT7 distribution site comes back up.
The more I look at it, the more it seems something is wrong with the USB 2.0 drives. They recognize a mouse or keyboard. On boot the BIOS will recognize them. But after boot, they will not work. Storage devices connected to them are not recognized.
Dvd Rom Driver Windows 7
Can't find an option in the BIOS that is obviously set wrong. The front case USB 2.0 lead is plugged into the usb 2.0 port on the mobo. Not sure how to get other drivers loaded without fully working USB 2.0 drives.
The Intel Z170 chipset is only USB 3.0. The motherboard provides legacy support for USB 2.0/1.1 keyboard and mouse during POST (i.e. Power On Self Test) and while you're in the BIOS setup. The problem arises when Windows 7 boots.
Windows 7 doesn't have chipset specific driver support for USB 3.0 or AHCI controllers in its install image. These technologies appeared after Windows 7 was released. That's why you need to incorporate (a.k.a. Slipstream) these required device drivers into the Windows 7 install image. Update: Got this thing solved.
Things i tried that didnt worked for me: 1. Installing with a ps2 mouse and keyboard using usb2.0 port - Result: Windows installed without any drivers, usb2.0 also didnt worked, so it was a paralyzed windows for me then. Tried integrating my drivers using rt7lite, that infact cause me the cd/dvd driver missing error 3. That bloody switching usb port trick that i can find in bulk everywhere, Maybe that is a solution for many people, but with skylake processor based new chipsets, it is not the solution REAL SOLUTION THAT WORKED Search for intel's tool for windows 7 usb creation, which requires that you should have a bootable usb of windows 7, my copy was a clean trial version of windows. That tool will do the task automatically, just take out your usb stick then and plug it in the new system where you want to install windows7, it will work without causing any single issue. But remember, it just integrates usb3 drivers.
So now u have got your usb ports working after windows is installed successfully, so get your drivers into the usb and install them on your new system. I have already saved a copy of such windows bootable usb, so if i need in future i can just paste the files on any formatted ntfs usb stick, and it will work for me, or simply i can make an iso from this copy of windows7, and simply create a bootable usb with rufus or something. My config is - 1. Intel i3 6100 lga 1151 skylake processor 2.
Cooler Master SMPS B500ver2 6. Antec GX200 Cabinet Exact problem i m facing, new build with no dvd drive, first installed some pre activated version using ps2 keyboard, but not a single driver is there.
Lan and usb too not being recognized. Then used rt7lite beta to integrate drivers into another untouched iso i downloaded, again made a bootable usb, and went to try to install. But as the gentleman has pasted screenshot, exact same screens are coming, with driver error, then bootx. Usb stick not being shown after i click browse. Now what should i do to install drivers.
