Does anyone know how I can get it to install unsigned drivers without prompting?

I used AutoIt to click on "do not install" when i run a loop on a pnputil command.
As i use French OS, as it's maybe not the same window and as you want to accept them,
I'm not sure if this will help a lot without editing the code but you have a start.

While 1
   if WinActive("C:\windows\system32\cmd.exe") = 0 then
	  if Winactive("Sécurité de Windows") = 0 Then ;use the au3info tool to check the actual name of the window
		 Winactivate("Sécurité de Windows")
	  Endif
	  ControlClick("Sécurité de Windows","","[TEXT:Ne pas installer ce pilote]")
	  sleep(2000)
   Else

So I should run a check of network driver and install them if needed before running the "net use" command.
I don't remember needing to install them on any computer i have installed so far.
I'll take a look to make the script that way.

Thank you for your reply.

If SDI, running from the network, install or update network driver, will it crash or will it handle the temporay lost of connection ?

I have review my script to this to have a debug command lline windows and install network driver from local SDI if needed for the net use.

start cmd /k
SET curdir=%~dp0
FOR /F "tokens=*" %%G IN ('DIR /B %curdir%*.exe') do (start wait %curdir%%%G -autoinstall -autoclose -license)
NET USE z: \\fogserver\Drivers
Z:
FOR /F "tokens=*" %%G IN ('DIR /B *.exe') do (%%G -autoinstall -autoclose -license)
C:
NET USE /delete /yes Z:

Hello,

I have put few commands in my unattend file that will run just before first auto login if i don't say wrong.
In one of these commands, I call a script that run a "net use" to mount a smb share to run driver auto install software but it looks to fail after deploy of the image when it works on the vm used to create the image.

Does someone knows if network is on during this process ?

Thank you.

Hello,
I have worked to move from SAD to SDI but I have some questions.

I want to use a network drive mount on Z to install driver and if the server can be reach, i want to use a local directory that will contain only the important drivers (LAN, WLAN and CHIPSET).

I have write this script that i want to use from he sysprep and it looks to works.

@echo off
PING fogserver
IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 1 GOTO local
NET USE z: \\fogserver\Drivers
Z:
FOR /F "tokens=*" %%G IN ('DIR /B *.exe') do (%%G -autoinstall -autoclose -license "-finish_cmd:%systemroot%\System32\shutdown -r -t 15")
NET USE /delete /yes Z:
goto end
:local
FOR /F "tokens=*" %%G IN ('DIR /B *.exe') do (%%G -autoinstall -autoclose -license "-finish_cmd:shutdown -r -t 15")
:end

any advise to make it better ?

My second question is, it looks like that SDI unpack all drivers from a packs that contain needed driver, is this normal ?

Ok, thank you.

I have made a new image running SAD2 at start up with sysprep.
This way looks better. Lighter image and easy driver pack update.
Yet, i haven't tested this version fully. I hope it will works well.

Thank you all for your replies.

I don't see any reboot option with /R in the last version.

After adding all packages, i find out that it's the DP_Misc_wnt6-x64_1202 that make blue screen.
What does it contains  and is it important drivers for daily use ?

Thank you for your reply.

I didn't saw the x86 pack... My mistake.
I have removed unnecessary drivers like gaming, webcam, touchpad, monitors and card reader since it's for universal image in education.

I will use VMware Workstation and snapshot stuff to go back from any blue screen.

I had plan to use SAD2 few month ago but i wanted to use it from network to make the image thinner but for network drivers... it was a problem and maybe something else was not working. Maybe since it was updated it works much better. I'll probably look again to this later.

I see 4 directories in some driver packs : server, vista, windows 7 and windows 8.
Are they all available under Windows 7 or should i delete the 3 unwanted version ?

Hello,
I have added these drivers pack with offline installation with a WinPE iso to a windows 7 pro 64bits under VMware Player using the command : dism /image:c:\ /add-driver /recurse /driver:Z:\drivers

DP_AMDfilter_wnt6-x64_1110
DP_Audio_wnt6-x64_1111
DP_CardReaders_wnt6-x64_11041
DP_Chipset_wnt6-x86_1212
DP_Gaming_wnt6-x64_812
DP_Graphics_A_wnt6-x64_1203
DP_Graphics_B_wnt6-x64_1203
DP_Graphics_Mobile_wnt6-x64_1203
DP_LAN_wnt6-x64_1208
DP_MassStorage_wnt6-x64_12121
DP_Misc_wnt6-x64_1202
DP_Monitors_wnt6-x64_911
DP_Touchpad_Mouse_wnt6-x64_1203
DP_Webcam_wnt6-x64_1103
DP_WLAN_wnt6-x64_1203

I got few errors adding some but nothing i felt important (but maybe it was).
But after a reboot i got a beautiful blue screen of the death.
Is there anyone that could advise me to not install a pack or driver that could crash the system ?

Don't work with proxy.

ok, so i'll keep methode 1.
Thank you.

Methode 2 still copy all the driver on local drive is this normal ?

It's fine, i have 1 To hard drive on the server and only 600Go is used ! :-p

It's working after i renamed "Stand Alone Driverpack Utility (SAD2)" to "StandAloneDriverpackUtility_SAD2" on USB  and works fine from network.
So problem was folder name...

Can i extract the 7z files like it's said for methode 2 under NT6 or i must use DriverPacks Base to use methode 1 under NT5 ?

I used methode 1 with delete after install and I check devices and sound looks not well installed, there is sound but windows say pilotes are missing. There is no log too are they deleted with drivers temp directory or not write in silent ?

A reboot after install would be good.

Good work.

No log on system drive.

It close itself and that's all.
Here is the log file : http://bloody.spike.free.fr/debuglog_DIA.txt
Screenshot after i check devices : http://img15.hostingpics.net/pics/114247Sanstitre.jpg

Works very well in manuel.

I have test again on XP.
It has install video only when there is update for lan and sound too.
It like it was stopping install after LAN drivers.

command is only "-s" to make it silent, no ?

Doesn't work from USB key under windows XP.
I think it looks for the current directory then look for the local one, so it can't find the files. Something like this.

As you said, i should read the readme file... Sorry.

Here is my error when i run it from USB.

Extracting the DriverPacks 32-bit core files using native 7-Zip.

Could it be run from network ?
Is there a way to avoid full unzip by building a DB kinda like Driver Installer Assistant because it's a bit a nightmare on a pentium IV with the way it check all the drivers.
Would took 5 to 10 min to deploy a full image image from the network but here it takes 20 min to unzip and check before install 4 drivers (LAN, sound, video and chipset).

My goal is to deploy windows an image made with vmware (2go for XP, 5Go for Seven and 3Go for windows 8) and install drivers automatically.
I can't allow to update packs in the image and use 1 more Go for drivers to put them on local drive.

Thank you and sorry if i feel harsh.
