Driver Signing in Vista HWI?
Submitted by nicknicolaou on 23 July, 2008 - 02:43.
Good Morning,
My query is with a hardware independant image we have created for Vista on HP laptops and desktops.
The HWI for the desktops is working fine no problems all drivers loading and the scripted install works a treat, problem is with laptops and the additonal drivers req. Trying to load drivers for the laptop (fingerprint reader, Ricoh card reader and HP mobile data protection sensor) during the install the driver for these devices windows is prompting:
Windows Security
"Windows Can't verify the publisher of this driver software"
If I click Install 3 times for the 3 problematic drivers the build carries on and completes normally, I need to be able to do this silently and without interuption to the build
Apologies if this is in the wrong forum, bit of a newb.
Any ideas would much appreciated
Use the /f
Use the /f /y in the command line.
It will force the screen to acknowledge

Thanks, will give it a try
Thanks for the super quick response, I will give it a try and let you know
Not sure how we run with the /f /y
Hi Erik,
Not sure how we run with the /f /y command as you mentioned, we currently have all our drivers in one folder, to obtain these we install the driver then use windriver ghost to extract what we need for the drivers then put that on the share for the build to access. So when Vista is installing it is automatically scanning the drivers folder and picking the correct .inf and driver files.
So our problem only occurs on the drivers mentioned before because they are bringing up the confirmation yes/no windows.
Should we be doing this differently? The offending drivers do not come as a single executable.
Thanks in advance
