▼ To Add Drivers to the WIM Image

1. Extract the contents of Windows Server 2008 DriverPack_

x_x_x.zip to a

network share (for example: \\

yourshare\share\DriverPack), making sure to

maintain the directory structure.

2. Select the service image to update and export the image.

a. Click Start, click Administrative Tools, and then click Windows Deployment

Services.

b. Find the image to service. Right-click the image and then click Disable.

c. Right-click the image and select Export Image. Follow the Wizard directions

to export the image to the location of your choice.

3. Mount the Windows image you just exported. For example,

imagex /mountrw C:\windows_distribution\sources\install.wim 1

C:\win_mount

The first Windows image in the Install.wim file is mounted to C:\wim_mount.

4. Use Windows System Image Manager (Windows SIM) to create an answer file

that contains the paths to the device drivers that you intend to install.

See the Microsoft documentation for the Windows Automated Installation Kit
(AIK) for the details of starting the Windows SIM application.

5. Add the Microsoft-Windows-PnpCustomizationsNonWinPE component to

your answer file in the offlineServicing pass.

6. Expand the Microsoft-Windows-PnpCustomizationsNonWinPE node in the

answer file. Right-click DevicePaths, and then select Insert New
PathAndCredentials.

A new PathAndCredentials list item appears.

7. In the Microsoft-Windows-PnpCustomizationsNonWinPE component,

specify the path to the architecture folder in the DriverPack folder on the
network share, and the credentials used to access the network share.

For example, the path and credentials for a 64-bit image might be:

\\

yourshare\share\DriverPack\amd64

MyDomain

MyUserName

MyPassword
