this looks very intersting, has anyone actually managed to do this yet ??
I just use Driver Package Installer and point it to my folder of the driver packs, works very well and gets everything installed except for some proprietary hardware.

Does this only work on Win 7 or XP as well?

DriverForge its a simple utility that will install drivers in compressed/uncompressed format automatically. Using DriverPacks compressed drivers together with DriverForge gets it done. Click Start and enjoy the automatic driver install.
NOTE: sorry I'm new to the forums and can't post links, just google it.
Why not just use SAD2 from DriverPacks.net?
http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic.php?id=5336I searched the DriverPacks.net website and can't find any mention of SAD2. Got a link?
Thanks. Got it. Now to give it a try.
