Script to detect graphics card model

[tyanni]

I am building an unattended install cd for our laptops at work. We only use two models, the Latitude D600 and 610, but unfortunately the graphics card is an ATI 9000 in the earlier model and X300 in the later one. The unattended install works fine as far as finding the proper drivers and installing them, but I need a way of install the control panel. I can't just add the control panel location to the RunOnceEx file, as there are two control panels, one for each driver. I am not sure of a way of scripting the detection of the driver or graphics card and then installing the proper control panel. Any suggestions??

Thanks,
tim

No idea, but you might poke around www.InstallSite.org and the forums for whatever installer you're using.

Or add a user prompt at the very start, so the rest can run unattended

Or give up and make 2 CDs 🙂

Unfortunately, two cd's isn't an option, as it needs to be one cd for laptops and another for desktops. I may need to do an image and use ghost instead. Oh well, thanks!
