PRB: Running INFINST for the Windows 98 OPK Intl Languages

MORE INFORMATION

All International versions of the Windows 98 OPK have two versions of Infinst.exe. One is the English binary, which will not work with the International kits. This binary is located in the CD-ROM under the \Tools\Infinst directory. The correct version is located in the CD-ROM under the \Cdextra.xxx\Tools\Reskit\Infinst directory (XXX is the three letter language). The Infinst.exe in \Cdextra.xxx\Tools\Reskit\Infinst is localized to the specific language, and will reference the correctly named setup binary for the specified language.

Infinst.exe is a program in the Windows 98 OPK and the Windows 98 Resource Kit that allows you to integrate a third party .inf file and related driver binaries into the Windows 98 product. Infinst.exe needs to locate the third party .inf files, as well as the setup binary for the Windows 98 product. The English Infinst.exe will always locate this setup binary with the name Setup.exe. Many International releases of Windows 98 use names other than Setup.exe for the setup binary (for example, Instalar.exe).
