OSD folks, Some of the Windows 7 drivers for the new Dell systems may require an update of the KMDF to version 1.11. The KMDF is a component of the OS and the update is available from Microsoft at the link below. The usual treatment is to include the KMDF update into your base image until it is rolled up into a service pack. Some of you may remember seeing this issue with XP/Vista when Win7 came on the scene.
Symptoms that a KMDF update is needed for a Windows 7 driver: 1. Yellow bang in device manager for components that you know you have a driver available. 2. Black screen during OS deployment http://www.microsoft.com/en-my/download/details.aspx?id=38423 Regarding Dell Driver CABs, I will update the download pages with this information, for those systems that we find are affected.
