Set Driver Signing to Ignore in WinPE

[DarrenP]

Hey!

Does anybody know how to set Driver Signing to Ignore rather than the default of Warn?

I have changed the HIVESFT.INF:

"HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Driver Signing",,0x00000010

to

"HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Driver Signing",,0x00000000

and rebuilt the PE install. Verfied using regedit while in WinPE that the value of HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Driver Signing is set to 00 when when I start networking via the factory command, it always prompts me to install an unsigned driver.

Saw this in the setapi.log:

#E412 Permachine codesigning policy settings appear to have been tampered with. Error 13: The data is invalid. 
#W415 Codesigning policy database resynchronized to default values. 
#W413 Default of 1 restored to "Policy" value under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Driver Signing.

After doing some searching, found this MS KB article that states that it will detect that this value has been altered and reset it - KB298503

Anyone know how to disable Driver Signing in WinPE without having to mess with a group policy?

Ok, so can anyone tell me where I can get Intel PRO/1000 MT Drivers (in a Dell GX260/270) that are signed against XP SP1?
