Dism Install Drivers Online

If you migrate Windows installations between storage adapters, you'reoften left with the well known STOP 0x7B INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE.This happens because Windows doesn't yet have the required drivers installed,and/or set as boot-critical.

So I then used the dism method to install the install.wim (with drivers added), and BINGO - upon boot, it recognised all my hardware and went through oobe. So: 1) export drivers 2) inject drivers into install.wim as per this tutorial 3) use dism to clean install custom install.wim 4) Reboot and go though OOBE. Wim i have tried different methods on driver injection online but was only able to mount the image, get an error, 50 when trying to add. Places driver path since being used both on 270 degrees. You are here, tutorials dism tool - driver servicing dism tool allows you manager drivers in a windows image. Intel port 10gb. Or even a windows. Note further that the folder into which the drivers get written — DriversW10.1511.218 identifies Windows 10, Version 1511, Build 218 — must exist for DISM to do its thing. That means you must.

The dism.exe tool allows us to install (boot-critical) drivers intoan offline Windows 'image'. Note that an offline Windows 'image' is nothingspecial - a regular Windows install is a valid Windows 'image'.

After a STOP 0x7B, Windows Boot Manager usually sets up fallback bootinto WinRE (Windows Recovery Environment). WinRE has a copy of the DISMtool, so you're good to go.(Cancel the Startup Recovery assistant if you have to.)

Example DISM commands to use from the WinRE (or WinPE) Command Prompt:

Update: fixed megaraid.inf filename. (Thanks, mika.)
