In order to make a Ghost Boot disk for our Win7 wrokstation we need the driver for the NIC, 82578DM, in a .inf / .cat format. We can only find a self extracting exe file for this driver. Any suggestions? Thanks. Michael

Hi Michael,

The executables are in a format that can be extracted by programs such as WinZip or WinRAR. You can also extract the files from the executable using command line switches as explained in the readme. I copied out the information you need below:

This self extracting archive supports the following command line parameters:

ParameterDescription

/f

Destination path where the archived files will be extracted to.

/e

Do not automatically start the installation process.

/s

Extract the files silently.

For example, to only extract the contents of the webpack to a specific folder (and not run the installation), type the following:

 

/f /s /e

NOTE: The /f parameter must precede the /e parameter. Failure to do so may cause an "Unable to execute the specified command line!" error.

Have a great day!
