Hi !

Maybe someone can help me with this ...

I have a NIC, a Surecom model based on the Realtek 8139 chip. Installing the latest Realtek drivers works fine, I am sure of that, however the Surecom model does not appear in the drivers inf file so I have to force Windows to take this driver and acknowledge quite a few warnings doing so.

I would like to add the driver to my unattended installation but obviously, Windows will not use that driver for my NIC. Is there any way I can make Windows take that driver ?

Obviously I will have to adapt the inf file somehow. I even tried this before, I placed the Hardware ID of my card in a few places inside the inf but it did not change much. I probably did not do it the right way. Also there are quite a few ID`s available to choose from in the cards properties. Hardware ID´s, compatible ID´s and a few others. I don´t really know which one to choose.

I have attached the Realtek drivers inf file to this post and the ID`s of my card are as follows:

PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8139&SUBSYS_032010BD&REV_10\4&2E98101C&0&50F0

PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8139&SUBSYS_032010BD&REV_10

PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8139&SUBSYS_032010BD

PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8139&CC_020000

PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8139&CC_0200

PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8139&REV_10

PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8139

PCI\VEN_10EC&CC_020000

PCI\VEN_10EC&CC_0200

PCI\VEN_10EC

PCI\CC_020000

PCI\CC_0200

pci\ven_10ec&dev_8139&subsys_813910ec&rev_10

Any ideas ? Thanks in advance !

Hi ACEOFNOS!

Thanks for your help ! Well I tried your file but it behaves similar to a modified inf I tried some time ago. If I try to update the driver choosing the option shown in the pic, Windows will tell me that it cannot find a matching driver at that location. I have to choose the option " Don´t search, choose the driver myself" in order to install the new driver.

This however will not work during unattended installation. Windows would not use the driver in that case.

Thanks,

Alex

could you provide the Surecom inf?

Hi !

Sure, I have attached it to my post. If it is not too much work could you highlight any changes you make so I could learn something from it ?

Thanks anyway ! :-)
