Hello,

Is there a way I can "pre-install" an ISA (non-pnp) device into my XPe image/system?


Thanks, Chris
 
Chris,

Sure thing.

You can go either way:
- install them at runtime manually with Device Manager
- install them at runtime automatically with console version of Device Manager - devcon (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/311272)
- install the device at build time. Use driver INF files to import first. Here you will have to properly create PnP resources
for your new component that is going to install the device. Lost of sample components with the same in XPe database.
- create a component with the required files (just import the device INF's) and pre-populated registry entries required (you can
grab these from XP Pro/XPe where the devices and drivers are installed and working properly)
