Drivers for XP Embedded

[Guest]

I am starting a new project on windows XP Embedded.
I am using Asus motherboard model no. p5GD1 as hardware on which i need to
run my XP Embedde image.
I have created a device info(.PMQ) file. But while importing this file to
component designer or target designer, I get 6 warnings :

Warning:Could not find a driver for Hardware Device:

Info:Import succeeded with 28 drivers for 34 devices.

which clearly indicates that ta.exe was unable to find driver information
for these hardware devices.
I have tried my best to search drivers (XP embedded components) on Asus
site but no avail. Where can I get these components ?

Thnx

Hi Bontz,

it's better to

a) Install a WinXP Pro and run TAP.exe (excellent result) or
b) Boot from WinXPe Disc 1 and run TAP.exe (good result)

If you're looking for drivers try WinXP (WinXP and WinXPe has the same
basis) drivers, thats it!

Best regards,
Sören

BONTZ,

How did you get your pmq file generated? I suspect you were using TAP.exe (not TA.exe) as limitted TA.exe output barely can produce
import errors.

In any case, install XP Pro on that hardware (hope you already did) and if it installs and runs fine you can grab necessary drivers
analyzing Device Manager information. As soon as you extract necessary driver files (*.sys, *.dll, *.inf) use inf's with CD for
importing.
Or, with most of the PnP drivers, you can simple copy the files to appropriate image directories and FBA PnP will do the rest.

For componentzation tips look here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/embedded/community/community/tips/xp/thrdprty/default.aspx

Btw, some hardware and software components that are not in XPe database, may be found on www.xpefiles.com.
