[Release] Original HDA Inf Files Replacer Addon

[MrNxDmX]

This addon is made for people who still get errors with High Definition Audio drivers, when using RyanVM Update Pack.

This addon will put back the original "KB888111 - HDA Update" inf files to your RyanVM Update Pack integrated source. The new method, which Ryan uses, has described here, and being used since RyanVM Update Pack 2.1.3. New update packs are using new method.

NOTES:
Only for use with RyanVM update pack 2.1.3 or newer. (Will not make any conflicts with older ones)
You can use both integrator or nlite.
Because of being taken from a hotfix, do not use this without RyanVM update pack (on a clean sp2 source).

laze.

[jumz]

Thanks

[omniwolf]

is this still relevant?
you seem to say that ryan already uses this method in 2.1.3, but then you say we should only use this mthod in 2.1.3 or later..? so is it already integrated or should be putting it in ourselves manually if we are having problems?

Ryan still uses this method.
if you are having problem during installation, then you can using this replacement.

[omniwolf]

ok, so how is this different to whats in the official pack?

Yep. Its supposed to correct the issue, as stated by Ryan (a long time ago, in an update pack topic).

I'm using nLite, DriverPacks Finisher, MySysprep, and RyanVM's update pack (integrated with nLite) for my image.

If I don't include the RyanVM pack, I don't have this issue.

If I use the RyanVM pack with or without this AddOn, I'm still getting the prompt for the missing HDAUDBUS.SYS, and my sound card driver won't install automatically. Sound card is splatted in Device Manager.

If I then install the audio driving from Dell's driver setup file, all is fine. But obviously this is not going to work in a multi system image.

Am I missing something?

Is editing my audio driver's INF file with the below code no longer necessary? (I have not done this yet...)

Code: Select all

222 = %DiskId1%,"",222,"I386"

[MrNxDmX]

Yep, just change this

Code: Select all

[SourceDisksNames]
222 = %DiskId1%,"",222,"I386"

to this:

Code: Select all

[SourceDisksNames]
222 = %DiskId1%,"",222

Thats what i do with this addon.

[EvilBetty]

To clarify...

I make this change in COMBINATION with this addon, or INSTEAD of this addon.

Thanks!

Well I just looked and I already have this setting in my audio driver's INF files...

Code: Select all

;Abstract:

[SourceDisksNames]
222 = %DiskId1%,"",222

[SourceDisksFiles]
hdaudbus.sys = 222

[EvilBetty]

Yep, just change this

Code: Select all

[SourceDisksNames]
222 = %DiskId1%,"",222,"I386"

to this:

Code: Select all

[SourceDisksNames]
222 = %DiskId1%,"",222

Thats what i do with this addon.

Ok well I reversed what you said, and it turns out that got rid of the prompt for HDAUDBUS.SYS...

Unfortunately this did not correct the splat on the Sigmatel HD driver in DeviceManager.

Is this ringing a bell to anyone?!
