Implementing Device Drivers

kernel mode drivers require digital signature

Installing vs Enabling Installing - requires admin rights if third party

Staging drivers in the driver store – Admin

– Drivers

Viewing Online Driver Store Contents: All Drivers- – Get-WindowsDriver -online -all – dism /online /get-drivers /all

View .inf files in notepad – C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\<name>\*.inf

Adding to the Driver Store – Online: pnpuntil /add-driver x:\driver.inf – Offline: dism /image:c:\<imagefolder> /add-driver /driver:c:\<driverfolder>\driver.inf

DISM - System Image Manager

Remote Server Admin Tool –> Group Policy Management Editor

Driver Verifier Manager

Run Verifier.exe elevated and choose: - Select all unsigned - Select drivers built for older Windows versions - Select all - Select from a list

Troubleshooting: – Devmgmt.msc - Roll Back Driver - Less disrupted than reverting to a restore point – By default F8 no longer works in Windows 10 – Boot to DVD, “Repair your computer,” troubleshoot .. Command Prompt – bcdedit /set {default} safeboot minimal

Cleaning up Unused Drivers – Disk Cleanup – device driver packages

Type 4 Drivers – One “class driver” supports many models of printer – Drivers no longer hosted on print servers – Get from Windows Update – Enhanced point and printer

NIC speed settings – – Allow device to wake the computer – Allow computer to turn off device to save power - not really on NIC

Write Caching policy - – Better performance vs quick removal

Configuring The User Experience

Start Screen Control – Create desired layout – Export layout to XML: Export-StartLayout (in powershell) – GPO fixed Only works with enterprise edition

Windows Settings –> Personalization –> Taskbar

--- The universe starts at Guru 42

Mahatma Gandhi once said, "The various religions are like different roads converging on the same point. What difference does it make if we follow different routes, provided we arrive at the same destination."

No matter what your destination, or puzzle in life, don't get hung up on thinking there is only one way to approach it. The Guru 42 Universe was created to stretch your mind beyond the buzzwords, to see things in a different perspective. Even if you totally disagree with the guru personally, if you think about a problem or idea in a way you never have before, the Guru has succeeded.
