Adding drivers to a bootable USB device

Question

_{Thursday, September 20, 2018 5:17 PM}

I created a boot able USB drive with Windows 10 on it using Rufus.

I would like to add drivers from a HP desktop to it.

Under sources folder there are two *.wim files (install.wim, boot.wim)

Does anyone know how to do this or if it can be done.

Thanks

Very new to imaging

You can do it by using the DISM commands.

Dism /Mount-Image /ImageFile:"F:\sources\boot.wim" /index:1 /MountDir:"C:\Temp\Offline"

Mount the wim file.

Dism /Add-Driver /Image:"C:\Temp\Offline" /Driver:"C:\SWSETUP\SP78930" /Recurse

Add drivers.

Dism /Unmount-Image /Mountdir:"C:\Temp\Offline" /commit

Then unmount the image and that's it.

The drivers can be added to the install.wim file in the same way.

If you need drivers in the boot process add them to the boot wim file.
