a) Did you get the drivers installed manually. Think it should work with context menu on inf driver + install. But to be honest I didn't do it for a long time ;-) b) Check out my configuration sample e.g. here: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Single-Wix-setup-for-Win7-32-64-bit-operating-system-td6597519.html#a6597758 c) Do you have InstallShield ? If so build an MSI with their driver wizard, check if the files are relative as described in the inf file and build an msi. If driver works properly dark the resulting MSI and have a look at it...
