Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 silent install

We are about to deploy Windows 2000 SP4 to a few of our servers using Microsoft SUS. The switches it will use are -q /z for silent install and no-reboot. I am wondering if it will replace the cpqarray.sys since the /o option is not used which allows overwriting of OEM drivers?

Thanks,
Chad

Re: Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 silent install

I believed when I deployed more than a year ago, the system asked me what i would like to do. The silent install was suddently not so silent any more... :-(

With the /O parameter he will not ask an replace the file.

What you can do, is copy the cparray.sys before the install, and overwrite the cparray.sys afterwarts before rebooting...

Chaos, Panic or Disaster??? Always Stay Calm, I will fix it.
