Gentlemen, I'm an avid reader of the site and have contributed very little because the knowledge base here is far greater than mine. I've learned a lot over the years and would like to thank those for their contributions and time. I would like some assistance with a problem injecting drivers into the wim file for windows 8 x64 WMC Retail and 8.1 x64 WMC Retail. When I install the drivers that are current on my operating system, Win 8.1 x64 WMC Retail both retail key activated then I have a problem with the install. The problem is that after I inject the drivers and do a clean install, the USB keyboard and mouse don't respond to input. The indicator on the key board isn't lit up, which means no power. I plugged an old keyboard in that has the DIN plug and it responds. I get through the install set-up screens using the old keyboard. Then I reboot but the USB keyboard and USB mouse still don't respond. Seems the default drivers from windows don't load either. Everything goes well with a clean install without adding the drivers to the wim file. It doesn't activate until I install the recent drivers. The keyboard and mouse keep working normally with the same updated drivers that I inject to the wim. So my question is, should the drivers be installed else where, like boot wim or the PE wim? or all three places or is this a different issue? Thanks in advance.
You gave us the symptoms, but not the procedure you used to integrate drivers, and where the drivers came from. Version numbers, etc. I have to say... I have not seen any usb3 drivers for 8.1 yet. If you tried to integrate those from an old Windows 8.0 driver, you will have problems.
Hi murphy, I use the command: Dism /Image:C:\win8\mount /Add-Driver /Driver:C:\win8\drivers /ForceUnsigned /recurse The drivers are from my running windows 8 or 8.1. I back up the drivers from the system in respective folders. The drivers are from Intel I don't have USB 3.0 on my system. Here's the list of drivers I install: < Intel(R) ICH10 Family USB Universal Host Controller - 3A37 > Version:9.1.9.1003 Date:2-25-2013 Provider:Intel Class:USB Setup Information:oem30.inf Setup Section:USB.NT Hardware ID:pci\ven_8086&dev_3a37 < Intel(R) ICH10 Family USB Universal Host Controller -
