I'm facing a problem while trying to install a signed driver on my Windows 7 computer.
In order to install the driver I'm using the command (CMD as Administrator):
sc create my_driver type= Kernel binPath= "c:\my_driver\driver.sys"
Windows Failure
Driver signatures
The driver is working just fine in Windows 10

Since latest Windows 10 versions don't install RNDIS network automatically I need to perform the following procedure after each Windows reboot to connect to my evaluation board:
Device Manager > RNDIS > Update driver > Browse... > Let me pick... > Microsoft > Remote NDIS compatible device
I couldn't figure out how to do it neither in Powershell nor in pnputil.
Is there a way to automate it?
Okay so I am deploying a program via SCCM 2012 to all of our laptops at our corporate office. I have the program for the package install with administrative rights so it is running under the SYSTEM account. This works perfectly on all of our Windows 7 PC's, however all of my Windows 8.1 laptops/tablets are returning error code -3 to SCCM. This means the required data was not found in the setup.iss file. I did some testing and ran the batch file that is kicking all of this off with PSEXEC -s on a windows 7 machine and it exited with code 0, so a successful install as I had expected. When I run this same test on a Windows 8.1 machine it exits with code -3 just as I was seeing in my SCCM console. I tried to recapture a new setup.iss by recording the install on that windows 8.1 machine and used that .iss in the PSEXEC test and got the same result. The kicker is that if I open an elevated command prompt and kick off the batch the program installs! So there seems to be something different with how the SYSTEM account is handling this batch file in Windows 7 vs Windows 8. Has anyone else seen something like this or have any idea why it would be failing when run as SYSTEM only on Windows 8.1?
I am trying to install Websphere Application Server 8.5 in Windows 7 64 bits but I have had difficulties.
The server is Windows 7 64 bits and I am using the Installation Manager.
I tried to use both the 64 bits version (DEVELOPERSILAN.agent.installer.win32.win32.x86_64) and the 32 bits (DEVELOPERSILAN.agent.installer.win32.win32.x86) but I got the message:
The package com.ibm.websphere.DEVELOPERSILAN.v85 specified in the install.xml file wasn't located. The same message for IBMJAVA.v70, liberty.IBMJAVA.v70, IHSILAN.V85, APPCLIENTEILAN.v85, PLGILAN.v85, PLUGCLIENTILAN.v85, WCTILAN.v85, W2MTKILAN.v11 and liberty.DEVELOPERSILAN.v85.
Should I install anything else before the Installation Manager?
I recently downloaded WAS8.5 on Windows R2 2008. Hope I could answer your question.
Installer Manager 32-bit will work.
Did you add the repository with file name "repository.config" to the Installation Manager?
This should be same for any product when you install from Installation Manager.
Make sure to provide Admin privileges to the IM when starting it.
I have a Virtual Smart Card Reader driver. It installs correctly at my PC (Windows 7 x64). But installation fails when I install it at another Windows 7 x64 PC. Of course I install them in the same way:
devcon install <inf> <hwid>
I compared setupapi.dev.log files and found the difference at very first line:
Successful sessions at my PC always starts from
[Device Install (Hardware initiated) - {892EDE5E-BE49-443c-A0B3-005D74F2D69C}\ScFilter\1&3908c5bd&9&01]
Failed sessions at another PC always starts from
[Device Install (UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices) - root\BixVirtualReader]
I had another Virtual Smart Card Reader at Divice Manager. But I switched it off before the installation of new driver.
I was trying to install IE 8 on a Win Server 2003 SP2 on a Xeon machine.
I went to Microsoft download site and got this file (for Windows Server 2003 64-bit)
IE8-WindowsServer2003-x64-ENU.exe
But during installation I got an error of "The image file update\iesetup.exe is valid, but is for a machine type other than the current machine"
For completeness, I then tried download the other file (for Windows Server 2003 32-bit)
IE8-WindowsServer2003-x86-ENU.exe
And this one gave me an error message of "... is not a valid Win32 application"
Any idea?
Install this version from the link above. it should solve the issue.

Also check your os base. You can type this command at the command line:
systeminfo
