ATI Radeon 9800 Pro Support

As happy as I will be when the card is officially supported, I can't wait
until November to get this testbed running. So...if someone knows of a
shortcut, I'd be happy to hear it.

If you extract the drivers using a 3rd party tool like WinRAR you can build
your own component using Component Designer, the inf and the needed driver
files.

To do this go into Component Designer, import the inf, copy the needed
driver files listed in component designer along with the .inf and .cat over
to your Embedded Repository.

Gereon,

Also beside explanation in product documentation and online doc you can use approach described in following thread:
http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=e...tngp13.phx.gbl

You will have only to include certain component in your image from MS database and to copy ATI's catalyst files to their folders.

Best regards,
Slobodan

Then read the tip article here on how to componentize a third party driver:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/embedded/c...unity/tips/xp/

Or, get Sean Liming's book on ""Windows XP Embedded Advanced".

Componentizing drivers is also discussed in depth within the XPe
documentation.
