Network drivers not found imaging Dell E6440

Thread needs solution

Dell released a new line of Lattitude laptops and I was attempting to make an image of the laptop when I realized I could not contact my image box or use USB drives. I've created a WIN PE boot CD and now USB drivers work how ever the network drivers still do not load.

Is there an easy fix for this? We do not use snap and deploy.

Thanks,

Mike

Hello Michael,

as far as I understood created WinPE media cannot connect to your network drives.

Please check if you added correct network card drivers to WinPE.

Thank you.

In case you're still looking for the E6440 NIC drivers for WinPE - try using the ones in the WinPE 4.0 CAB file located on this site:
http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/enterprise-client/w/wiki/4376.w…

Download and extract the CAB (I used WinZip). Look for/load the drivers in this folder: "WinPE4.0-Drivers-A03-9NCGV\winpe\x64\network\72FNC_A00-00\WINDOWS8-x64"

These worked for us in MDT so hopefully they'll work for you.
