Setting up Intel(R) 10GbE Network Connection Drivers for Micorsoft* Windows* PE =============================================================================== To set up network drivers for Microsoft* Windows* PE, you must import files from the Intel(R) Network Connections Software CD to the Windows PE image. Follow the directions for your operating system. 32-bit Microsoft Windows PE V6 ============================== 1. Create a temporary directory (for example, c:\temp\winpe). 2. Copy all files from the PROXGB\Win32\NDIS65\WinPE directory to the temporary directory. 3. Extract the driver inf file (for example: ixe6532.inf) from PROXGB\Win32\NDIS65\WinPE\*.zip to the temporary directory. 4. Use the /Add-Driver option of the DISM.exe tool to import the drivers into the image. For example, use the following command: dism /image:C:\mounted_winpe /Add-Driver /driver:c:\temp\winpe\ixe6532.inf The syntax for the dism.exe tool is as follow: dism /image:<%WINPEDIR%> /Add-Driver /driver:<path> /image:<%WINPEDIR%> specifies the path to the directory where you have mounted your Windows PE image. /Add-Driver specifices the action dism should take. /driver:<path> specifies the path to the driver inf file. Please see your Microsoft Windows PE documentation or the Microsoft website for more information on using dism.exe x64 Microsoft Windows PE V6 =========================== 1. Create a temporary directory (for example, c:\temp\winpe). 2. Copy all files from the PROXGB\Winx64\NDIS65 directory to the temporary directory. Do NOT copy the ixe65x64.inf file to this directory. 3. Extract the driver inf file (for example: ixe65x64.inf)from PROXGB\Winx64\NDIS62\WinPE\*.zip to the temporary directory. 4. Use the /Add-Driver option of the DISM.exe tool to import the drives into the image. For example, use the following command: dism /image:C:\mounted_winpe /Add-Driver /driver:c:\temp\winpe\ixe62x64.inf The syntax for the dism.exe tool is as follow: dism /image:<%WINPEDIR%> /Add-Driver /driver:<path> /image:<%WINPEDIR%> specifies the path to the directory where you have mounted your Windows PE image. /Add-Driver specifices the action dism should take. /driver:<path> specifies the path to the driver inf file. Please see your Microsoft Windows PE documentation or the Microsoft website for more information on using dism.exe Known Issues ============ Boot failure in WinPE for Microsoft* Windows* 10 ------------------------------------------------ Your system may fail to boot under WinPE for Microsoft Windows 10. This can occur during a network install using IPv6. To resolve the issue, modify the "Wait for Link" section of the INF that you insert into the boot image. In the line HKR, Ndi\Params\WaitAutoNegComplete, default, 0, "2" Change the default "2"(auto detect) to "1" (wait for auto negotiation to complete). This section of your INF file should look like the following example: ; Wait for Link HKR, Ndi\Params\WaitAutoNegComplete, ParamDesc, 0, %WaitAutoNegComplete% HKR, Ndi\Params\WaitAutoNegComplete, default, 0, "1" HKR, Ndi\Params\WaitAutoNegComplete\Enum, "0", 0, %Off% HKR, Ndi\Params\WaitAutoNegComplete\Enum, "1", 0, %On% HKR, Ndi\Params\WaitAutoNegComplete\Enum, "2", 0, %AutoDetect% HKR, Ndi\Params\WaitAutoNegComplete, type, 0, "enum" Legal / Disclaimers =================== Copyright (C) 2009-2015, Intel Corporation.
