Importing Drivers for Windows PE
When configuring a deployment share for an organization that uses many computer models, each using different
drivers, it is advisable to create a separate selection profile for the WinPE boot media. This will help to prevent any
conflicts with drivers and functionality that is not provided in WinPE. The drivers most frequently required by WinPE are
network and storage drivers. To make drivers available to the selection profile, they must be imported into the
deployment share. To import the Surface Ethernet Adapter drivers for WinPE, follow these steps:
1. Open File Explorer and navigate to the download location for the Surface Pro 3 drivers.
2. Extract the Surface Ethernet Adapter and Surface Gigabit Ethernet Adapter ZIP archives to a folder on the
production deployment server.
3. Open the MDT Deployment Workbench.
4. Expand the deployment share tree and select the Out-of-Box Drivers folder.
5. Select the New Folder option from the Actions pane to launch the New Folder dialog box as shown in Figure
3.18.






Progress – A progress bar will be displayed as the folder is created.

Confirmation – Confirmation of the successful creation of the folder will be displayed here. Click Finish.
7. Select the newly created WinPE folder in the Out-of-Box Drivers folder.
