What is best way to install drivers?

Hi all

Trying to silently install drivers.
Package contains DPInst.exe a .cat, .inf and .sys file

I tried DPInst.exe /S 
DPInst.exe /SE

I see the DPInst.exe process run for 2 seconds then stops.  Running it manually installs the driver correctly.

What command line are you using? (try /? or -? for the full options..., then revise your own command line)
Are you changing your working directory to the location in which the files (sys, cat, inf) are stored before executing the command line (important if there are more than 1 inf files, and you only want to install one type of hardware)
What does the log file say?

Cheers
Phil

Read this, ignore all the App-V stuff.

DPIsnt crates a log in the Windows (?) directory I think, have a look in there to see what drivers it processed,

i believe my issue is because of certificates similiar to the guy below
https://www.virtualhere.com/node/311

but this guy has the source of certificates from a download, if i dont have that is this still possible?

FYI My log files are pretty similiar to the blog in https://www.virtualhere.com/node/311

I exported the certs, will see if i can import them back in through script
