Bypassing the driver confirmation

[Indrek]

I made an unattended dvd using vlite, everything works fine, just on install it asks do i want to install the drivers, because windows can't find the driver publisher. I have vista ultimate x64. I want, that windows install doesn't ask it anymore.

Use only Vista WHQL signed drivers.

[Indrek]

How do i know which is WHQL and which is not? And is that counting how do i add them (i extracted the installer archives and added .inf files from directories)?

[nuhi]

They will say on their site WHQL certified. Usually non-beta drivers are ok.

And never edit the inf file, that breaks the signature.

By added .inf file I presume you selected that file through insertion, don't move it outside their folder (just in case, some people did that).

If you are still confused then paste [Drivers] section from your preset (last session.ini in that DVD/ISO/Folder).

well ok, but is there anything like in xp's winnt.sif

DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore

or somekind registry tweak. (i dont have any idea how i can add/modify registry entries)

No, there is nothing like that for Autounattend.xml and no regtweak AFAIK, too. I'm not 100% sure for the regtweak but 100% sure for Autounattend.xml.

ouch, this means that i *must* download WAIK (~1gb). But i'm pretty sure that i can disable that confirmation with registry.
