Hello I had to jump on this bandwagon and say what a great job you guys do.

I recently downloaded your Driverpacks and imported to SCCM for our deployments, we have 6000+ Windows 7 clients on our campus and while there has been some standardization there is a lot of different hardware specs. Rather than creating my own driver packages (which I was previously doing) which were all around 1 gig each it made sense for me to import the driverpacks.net stuff which came to around 3 or 4 gig and just use the Auto Apply Driver tool built into SCCM OSD limiting it to the Driverpacks.net packages. This has worked quite well on some older hardware, I have verified working on the below:

Dell Optiplex 755
Dell Optiplex 760
Dell Precision T1500
Dell Precision T1600
HP Compaq Elite 8000
HP Compaq Elite 8200
HP Compaq Elite 8300 - some having network card trouble, maybe slightly different revision?
HP z210
HP z220

However we're now moving towards HP's new line of hardware and have had some issues using the current "live" driverpacks with the portables from HP as well as the newer workstations. I would really welcome a new NT6.1 (Windows 7) driver pack from you guys. I am going to start testing the BETA's mentioned earlier in this post and will reply to the BETA thread if I can verify working on a these portables and new workstations from HP.

Keep up the good work guys, I hope my testing of the BETA at our site helps towards a new "live" release even though we have limited hardware specs.

Thanks!
