"Load Driver" from a Script: How ?
Hello,
Is there a way to "Load Driver" from a Script / Batch File / Command Line / WMI / API ? If yes: how ? Per example: Load a Driver for Intel SATA RAID. With diskpart.exe i saw that i can RESCAN the disks, also using a script, but What about Load a Driver ? Thanks |

"Load Driver" from a Script: How ?
Hi,
Since you're not getting any responses, I decided to provide my view on this question. That is, I've never had the need to install a driver using a script, though I'm sure I've not experienced every need in existence. Every driver I've installed came with its own installer or used the Windows installer. I have Intel SATA RAID drivers installed on my computer, and I had no need for a script, apart from that which may have been automatically used by the installer that got the job done. I have no idea what those installers have for code. That's my view. Anyone else? -- freddy "Auto" wrote: Hello, Is there a way to "Load Driver" from a Script / Batch File / Command Line / WMI / API ?

"Load Driver" from a Script: How ?
Typically no, if that "script" is not provided by the OEM that authors the
driver. The hardware wizard should detect new hardware and attempt to install first logo'd and certified drivers, and then in desparation, ask for a driver. However, for a disk drive such as SATA, typically the existing storage or USB stack(s) are sufficient for those. -- The personal opinion of Gary G. Little "Auto" wrote in message ...
