Hoping someone here has some WDS expertise....
I've got a WDS server setup, and have been using it for a while to image and deploy laptops and desktops at work. We recently got in a new model (Lenovo M72E), and I can't get the PCs to connect to the image.
I tap F12, it sees the LiteTouch file on the WDS server. When I click the button to start a deployment, which should bring up the images in the task list, it errors out saying it can't find a device. It says it's missing the NIC driver.
So I downloaded the .exe file for the correct driver it's looking for, ran the .exe, and then copied the contents to the WDS server. I then injected the drivers by pointing the import to that folder, which found the drivers. The driver that it's looking for is listed in the out of box driver list in the Deployment toolkit. I added the driver package to the LiteTouch boot image in windows deployment services. I disabled the existing image under 'install images' and created a new one. I've restarted the server, and updated the deployment share in the deployment toolkit.
I just don't get it. The driver is listed in the out of box drivers, and I've updated the boot image, and even tried regenerating the boot image, but the clients still fail, saying they can't connect to the deployment share. Any help would be extremely appreciated!
