Wireless NIC disappears after imaging

[sir574]

Hi,

I have used fog for a few years now and never run into an issue like this before. I have an HP2560p laptop used to create an image. Whenever I deploy that image to an identical 2560p the intel wireless NIC is gone on the deployed computer… I can re-run the driver and then it shows up and works just fine.

This is on windows 7 pro 32-bit. Any help to stop this for happening is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Eric
