Hi we use the wmi model query to install the exact drivers. In some pcs the query report is blank so the drivers are not installed. How can i do to force the drivers installation in these case? Thanks

Can you post an example of your query? What manufacturers do you support? Are you currently using a LIKE statement in your query? It's possible we can improve your query a little bit to make it more model agnostic. Also, I assume you are then assigning a driver package to the models?MCTS: ConfigMgr, MDT / http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/cnackers/default.aspx

Hi my query are like this Select * from Win32_ComputerSystem where Model like 'OptiPlex 980%' The problems i have is on hp 6120 and dell 6500. The query returns blank and no drivers are installed. Also after installing os the query is blank Thanks

try like so instead Select * FROM Win32_ComputerSystem WHERE Model Like "%Optiplex% 980%" My step by step SCCM Guides I'm on Twitter > ncbrady

Maybe you don't understand. My query works fine but if the result of the query is blank osd doesn't install any drivers. Can i use a drop down box for input the right model ?

what do you want to force the drivers to install on ? is it on the systems that don't match your query ? if so setup another step for them with the required wmi query and have a separate install drivers step My step by step SCCM Guides I'm on Twitter > ncbrady

I have many drivers package for many hw. The query wmi force the drivers to install. But if the query in some hw randomly is blank? Maybe where the mainboard has been changed.

Correct, that is in the intended behavior, that step will only run if the query is valid (assuming you have setup the task sequence step that way). There is no mechanism to say, hey this is blank, what do you want to do.MCTS: ConfigMgr, MDT / http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/cnackers/default.aspx

Maybe where the mainboard has been changed. yes, that is a common problem with that method, if the motherboard is replaced and the service tech doesn't code the model number back in that can cause issues.MCTS: ConfigMgr, MDT / http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/cnackers/default.aspx
