Out of box driver not getting installed

Question

Hi,

I am running into an issue with an out of box driver. I added the out of box driver under offline servicing phase and created IBW image from answer file. Copied the image to a USB and tried booting from USB. The installation goes fine however the driver does not get installed. I have copied the relevant log from the setupapi.dev.log. However after the installation completes if I do update driver from device manager and point the location to the USB. The driver gets installed. Any help is highly appreciated

Answer 1

One post is enough. If this is a 64-bit image, the driver has to be signed. If the driver is not signed, it will not be installed during OS install. Try running the installer to the driver manually to see if the red-box warning of an unsigned driver appears.

Answer 2

Hi all,

I was able to do it in two ways

1. I used DISM to mount my image and added driver using addriver option and then unmounted the image and used it

2. The other way that worked also is take the signed driver in a USB and add it manually after putting the system to audit mode.

Thanks
