However, there's nothing to prevent using both methods you could for instance export drivers from an existing Windows installation on similar but not exactly the same hardware setup, then remove drivers that are different on hardware where your install media will be used and download those drivers from manufacturer's site.Įxporting drivers from an existing installation on same hardware is my preferred method. Usually you would need to use one of the methods to get correct drivers, download drivers from manufacturer's site or export drivers from an existing Windows 10 installation on exactly the same hardware. Steps One & Two will show both available methods to get drivers to be added to image.

This tutorial will show how to use DISM to add or remove drivers on an offline image of Windows.

If the install media will be used on specific hardware, you can shorten the time required to install Windows, as well as time required for post install update by adding hardware specific drivers to install media. Windows will be installed with default drivers, then after the installation Windows Update searches for correct drivers installing them or the user installs drivers manually using ones provided by manufacturer. Drivers can be added or removed, language packs applied to create a multilingual Windows install media, Windows Updates applied to get a new Windows installation to be up to date straight after installation, and so on.Ī default Windows install media is hardware independent, meaning that it can be used to install Windows on any hardware capable of running Windows. DISM command options allow all kind of changes, changing the way Windows will be installed. Servicing an offline image is done with DISM ( Deployment Image Servicing and Management), a native Windows tool. When changes have been committed (written, saved) to image, the modified install.wim can be used to deploy Windows or to replace original install.wim on existing install media.

However, it's just geek speak meaning modifying default Windows install image, the install.wim file. The recent patches to nvidia-340xx-dkms seems to get more hardcoded over time and with the potential to break your system, so much that i had problems to get compositing working back on plasma when i tried to remove that package.Servicing an offline image, mounting an image, committing changes, it all sounds a bit complicated to an average Windows user. The only reason i decided to try to nvidia drivers again is because i was having issues on a specific site and i was told the site needed the drivers of the GPU so i decided to give it a try to see if that would solve my bug problem there but it did not.Īt the same time i can notice the improvement in performance with the nvidia drivers installed so that’s one reason to have it installed but i can realize it can be a pain to maintain it installed and working. I don’t do pc gaming (i am a console guy) so the generic drivers was enough for my needs. Years ago i used to like to have it installed due to screen tearing issues, but last time i installed endeavour os (that was a while back) the generic drivers worked fine to me and i had no screen tearing and compositing issues at all.

I’ve used that driver for many years, sometimes it would break my system and sometimes it would not.īut i had stopped using it maybe for 6 months or a year ago either because sometimes it would not work or due to difficulty to get it installed.
