DriverPacks

A DriverPack is a collection of all drivers for a specific hardware model.

If your Driver Packs during the automated Windows installation are a combination of all drivers (software for controlling hardware) of a specific device, for example to have them installed automatically during the automatic installation of Windows.

Each hardware vendor has a different way of delivering these driver packages for IT administrators so that they can import them into their MDT and SCCM/MECM environment.

Below I have made an overview of the most common hardware suppliers with references to Driver Packs that can be used with, for example, MDT or SCCM.

Drivers are injected with DISM during a Windows installation.
