You might take some registry snapshots before and after plugging in the external USB unit to try and capture that. Then you could export it, run an import before the application install and then run a removal after. Same thing goes for WMI. Just a thought.

I'm attempting to install the HP OEM Cyberlink Power2Go software as part of my SCCM Task Sequence. This is the newish offering HP now include with their business laptops and desktops. I have the application silently installing as expected as an app during testing, however when attempting to install it on a HP EliteBook 850 or 820 during a TS it fails. Further testing revealed Its failing because the external USB DVD drive wasn't connected at the time of the build. Connecting the external drive allows the app to install as expected. I'm looking for a way to avoid the drive detection/check that this application performs so we don't have to go unpacking and connecting external USB DVD drives all the time. The message I'm getting seems to be generated by the HP install shield setup.exe. The setup.exe calls an msi however I'm unable to run the msi directly due to the way it's been created. My contingency is to just have the software available in my application catalogue for those that want it however our preference is to have it installed on all hardware as the image is installed down. Has anyone come across this and resolved?
