I have a set of driver files in my installation package.
In the ism, i am coping these files to the [INSTALLDIR].
However during the installation, thesefiles are copied from [INSTALLDIR] to System32\spool\drivers\3 folder.

Now whan am creating patch for these driver files, on running the patch, the modified files get copied to the [INSTALLDIR] and not to the System32\spool\drivers\3 folder.
Is there any way by which i can get the files modified at both the INSTALLDIR as well as to the System32\spool\drivers\3 folder?

Am using ISD8.0

Thanks

How do you copy those files to the System32\spool\drivers\3 folder ?

That is handled by one of the executables that si a part of the package..
As thsi is a driver pack, when the device is plugged in the inf gets picked up which invokes this *.exe which further copies the files from the INSTALLDIR to system folder.

You would have to add code to your setup (custom action) or change the destination directory of the component, or populate the DuplicateFile table.
