Install Problem with Omega Driver

Hello,

1)
I have to Windows Partitions, one with Office and co. and one to play Games.
On the first I have no Problem to install the Omega Drivers, the Windows works with german language.
On the second, wich is for Games, the Omega Drivers wont be installed because they can`t find DirectX 9.
This Windows works in englich (US) language. I have installed DirectX 9.0b, DXDIAG told the same but the Omega Driver can`t find it.

2)
I have designed a unattanded Windows Installation CD for me.
How can I unattended install the Omega Drivers with the the Radlinker and co.?

Thanks for help

Do you mean two different windows, one with xp/2000, and one with something else?
If it is something else, then you have to have omegas for that windows, for it to work!

No, I have two Windows XP on two different Partitions on one Computer.

Now I find out somthing new .
When the Driver tells me that DirectX 9 is needed, I can only select okay. After that a new box ask me if I want to go forward.
If I press yes the Omega Drivers will be installed. But is this okay? Or is there are something missing?

Why would you have two xp installs? You know you can creature user accounts right? With their own profiles, hardware profiles, desktops, programs etc....There really isn’t a need to have more then one install. Heck most gamers don’t even use separate accounts either I don’t get your thinking

Either way the ATI installer is what can’t find it…

You must want to burn alot of cd's I don't slipstem basic drivers that get updated all the time so i'm no help there.

I have two installs because is it easier for me. If somthing going wrong, like a missing file for windows start or something, I don't need to install everything new. Only one, the Game or the Programm Windows. I also have not so much experience with create different accounts and manage them correctly. I also not only a Gamer. My age is 27 and I use my computer also to "work" with it. I like a slim Windows and not a big one with Ofiice and co. and many Games in one Windows with many Users.
The bigger a Windows, the easier is it to make a mistake.
