### Adding specific drivers

Our WinPE 3.0 based environment offers excellent hardware support. Anyway you’ve got the option to add drivers for specific hardware with a handy dialog.

To add drivers for specific hardware, please do the following:

2. In the opened dialog browse for an .INF file of the required driver package located on a floppy disk, local disk, CD/DVD or a network share. Then click the Open button to initiate the operation

| To know how to map a network share, please consult the Configuring network scenario.

3. You will be notified on the successful accomplishment of the operation. Click Yes to load another driver or No to close the dialog.

| Our WinPE 3.0 environment is 32-based, thus you need to use 32-bit drivers for injection.

### Configuring network

If your local network has a DHCP server, a network connection will be automatically configured once our WinPE recovery environment has been started up. Otherwise you will need to do it manually with a handy dialog by providing an IP address, a network mask, default gateway, etc. Besides with its help you can easily map network shares.

To manually set up a network connection and map a network share, please do the following:

1. Once you accept the agreement, you will see the Universal Application Launcher. Click Configure Network.

2. In the opened dialog provide an IP address, a network mask, default gateway, etc. for your network device.

3. Click the Network drivers tab to map a network share.

4. Click Map Network Drive and provide all the necessary information to map a network share in the opened dialog:

· Click the standard browse button [...] to browse for the required network share or manually enter a path to it;

· Define a letter from the pull-down list of available drive letters;

· Click the Connect as user button at the foot of the dialog page to specify a user name and password to access the selected network share if necessary.

By clicking Disconnect Drive… you can delete an existing network share if necessary.

5. Click the Network identification tab to change a network name of your computer (generated automatically) and a workgroup name.

6. By default, the wizard saves all network settings in the netconf.ini file located on the WinPE RAM drive, thus it will only be available until you restart the computer. However, you can just once configure your network device and then save this file to some other destination, for instance a local drive, and this way avoid constant re-configuration, just by providing a path to it. So Click Save to file to save the netconfig.ini file to the required destination.
