SCCM OSD VMWARE LSI Logic SAS drivers

Hello,

I'm having trouble finding the correct drivers for Vmware ESXi 4.1 LSI Logic SAS drivers to deploy a Windows 7 x64 image. I've got the VMXNET drivers from C:/program files/vmware tools/drivers for the network adapter.

Anyone have any ideas on where to download the correct ones or had any similar experiences?

thanks in advance!

For Windows 7, LSI drivers are guest embbeded, don't think VMware Tools installs anything. You can have a Win 7 running with LSI SAS and no tools at all.

They should be present also for Windows 7... if not on yours, check intel website, but it is weird the fact you are needing this drivers to be installed manually. They are native on most OSes.

Hi,

I think these drivers would need injecting into the boot image for WinPE if i'm to PXE boot the VM.
