Using discover Windows drivers during a restore

When BMR saves third-party drivers from a protected system, the driver signing is lost. (Third-party drivers are those that are not part of the Windows distribution.) During the BMR restore, the installation process installs the standard drivers into the temporary repair environment because the drivers from the protected system are unsigned.

You can edit the configuration so that the discovered drivers are installed rather than the standard Windows drivers.

To use discovered drivers during a restore

  1. In the Devices & Drivers property sheet, select the desired driver from the list of drivers in the bottom window, and click Change.

  2. Select the Use BMR discovered drivers instead of Windows supplied drivers checkbox.

  3. Click OK.
