This is great thanks. For whatever reason it did not occur to me to just google "HP SCCM driver packs" and such. Well we don't use SCCM here, so that is probably why.

Not so easy having them always work for a specific model though getting better. And yes, they genreally don't update them once the machine model is no longer produced. https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht074984 On Wed, Dec 23, 2015 at 2:44 PM, Kent, Mark < [email protected] > wrote: Windows 10 seems pretty darn good at pulling all of the correct drivers.

Seems like they stick a bunch of unsigned drivers in them and a bunch of crap that doesn’t need to be in there. I asked them about it at MMS and the reply was that some of the drivers actually need the .exe files and stuff but I really don’t think that’s the case at all. How could they even use those files?

You could take a working machine and use Driver Injector, I have used it a handful of times and heard from others it works well. https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/ConfigMgr-Driver-Injector-aae7d17d Daniel Ratliff From: [email protected] [ mailto:[email protected] ] On Behalf Of David Wan Sent: Wednesday, December 23, 2015 1:58 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [MDT-OSD] RE: Driver packs For Dell and HP, we usually search for driver packs for SCCM. Lenovo usually has them available, but they’re harder to find.
