WinPE build with Plus Pack 2012
I used this method to create a WinPE bootable disk with ATIH 2012 and it works!

Problem: I have an SSD that needs drivers added in order for Acronis to see it and there is no allowance to "Load Drivers" while in WinPE/Acronis.
How do I add the necessary driver when building the WinPE/Acronis disk?
The ssd is a RevoDrive3x2 240g

I do not think this is right, Scott--I believe the WinPE process only picks-up and includes those drivers that are a part of the Windows AIK e.g. to SP1 if that is what is used, and NOT any/all custom drivers that might happen to be installed on the PC that is being used to make the bootable media. Note I would love to be wrong about this! ;)
It's been my understanding that to include any custom drivers, for network or storage only, that one has to use the Bart PEbuilder method.
I have looked-into and worked-on this extensively in the last couple days and lemme tell ya, finding how to do this via Acronis' kb articles is nontrivial at best. I would guess/assume there is a way to include custom drivers by utilizing the AIK tools--for my part I haven't gotten that far yet.

I stand corrected.

I have been able to successfully add a driver file to the WinPE boot disk.
The procedure was as follows:
Follow this procedure:

This will produce a winpe.wim file in C:\winpe_x86 with the driver needed....(revodrive ssd driver) At this point I ran Acronis WinPE ISO builder that resulted in an Acronis.wim file in same folder that uses the above .wim file.
I copied this to the \ISO\Sources folder and renamed boot.wim
Next I built a bootable ISO file:

This is step 3 ...BIOS method
I then burned the ISO to a dvd and tried the boot...it worked and I could see my RevoDrive SSD!

Hello,
If Acronis developers would like to have a glance at Norton Ghost they will see that with Norton Ghost it is very easy to create a custom recovery CD and if you connot create because some drivers are missing then the Norton support is very efficient to help in finding the right drivers (Chat, phone and coonection with your own deskboard).
