Hey thanks for turning me onto devcon, but I am having problems with the command lines

I have tried everything, keep getting "devcon failed"

you may have to use devcon to manualy add it .
you can use the driverpacks to call a script using a pack ini.

Is it possible to make a DriverPack to have this driver to install, maybe using a driverpack .ini file?

I have a full version but here is a trial version that is the same
