Installing drivers

[Guest]

When installing drivers that I do not have components for I often am prompted
to manually locate certain files. These are usually found in the \windows,
\windows\systems32 and \windows\system32\drivers folders. This can be very
time consuming for printer and webcam drivers as there are many files and I
am prompted to locate each one. This does not occur when installing the same
devices in XP Pro or Win2000. Is there any setting or component that I can
use/change that will prevent this behavior? It would save me a lot of time
when I recreate the image.

Thanks
Chris

It is better to create the component than install post-FBA if possible.

Each time the system asks for a file in a different locaton, this becomes a
new file resource in the component. Keep tracking until all the files are
resolved.
