is installed and the STK IO driver (hpsstkio.sys) is copied to the windows\system32\
drivers

directory.

To add drivers offline:
1.

Mount the base image to a local directory by using dism.

For example:

dism /Mount-Wim /WimFile:C:\winpe_x86\winpe.wim /index:1 MountDir:C:\STK.TMP

2.

Add the .inf file to the base image by using the dism /Add-Driver command.

For example:

dism /image:C:\SSSTK.TMP /Add-Driver /driver:C:\ssstk\drivers\example.inf

3.

For each additional device driver repeat steps 1 and 2. When you finish customizing the
image, prepare the image for deployment by using the peimg /prep command.

NOTE:

If the appropriate iLO driver is not installed, some utilities do not work correctly. For

more information, see the README.txt file located with the drivers.

To add drivers online:
1.

Use the drvload tool, drvload.exe inf_path, where inf_path is the path to a device
driver INF file.

drvload x:\drivers\example.inf

2.

Copy and then paste the STK IO driver to the windows\system32\drivers directory.

NOTE:

If the HPSTKIO.SYS driver is not installed, some utilities do not work correctly.

copy c:\ssstk\drivers\system\ hpsstkio\ hpsstkio.sys c:\SSSTK.TMP\
windows\system32\drivers

Adding drivers to Windows PE 4.0

The Scripting Toolkit contains HP drivers that are to be used with Windows PE 4.0. These drivers
are located in the drivers directory of the Scripting Toolkit. Run the executable file in this directory,
and then select Extract to extract the drivers to a location to be used in the following steps.

Drivers can be added to Windows PE either offline or online. For all the utilities to work correctly,
complete the following steps to ensure the appropriate iLO driver (based on OS and version number)
is installed and the STK IO driver (hpsstkio.sys) is copied to the windows\system32\
drivers

directory.

To add drivers offline:
1.

Mount the base image to a local directory by using dism.

For example:

dism /Mount-Wim /WimFile:C:\winpe_x86\winpe.wim /index:1 MountDir:C:\STK.TMP

2.

Add the .inf file to the base image by using the dism /Add-Driver command.

For example:

dism /image:C:\SSSTK.TMP /Add-Driver /driver:C:\ssstk\drivers\example.inf
