If you get the error below when integrating nvidia graphic drivers you need to do the foolow:

ERROR:
Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool

Searching for driver packages to install…
Found 1 driver package(s) to install.

Installing 1 of 1 – e:\Documents\Windows 7\Drivers\x64\Nvidia Forceware v190.38 WHQL (Nvidia.com)\NV_DISP.INF: Error – An error occurred. The driver package could not be installed.
For more information, check for log files in the <windir>\inf folder of the target image.

Error: 30

The command completed with errors. For more information, refer to the log file.

The DISM log file can be found at C:\Windows\Logs\DISM\dism.log


The problem was that the Nvidia driver wasn’t totally unpacked as it requested files not there. Use the example below to unpack the files in the right way.

Note that the problem exist for both the Microsoft Update Catalog driver as well as the one which is available directly from Nvidia. Also note that this problem does not exist if you’re using Microsoft Deployment Toolkit 2010.





NOTE:
Extract nvidia 196.21_desktop_win7_32bit_english_whql.exe to wherever you like on your HD.

use this command : (adjust the path to your folder)

Code: Select allExpand c:\nvidia\*.*_ c:\expanded\


Copied the files of that new folder to the original nvidia folder (where you extracted the drivers the first time and skip files conflicts)

use the switch /recurse to install the driver with dsim:

Dism /image:c:\TEST_FOLDER /Add-Driver /driver:c:\TEST_DRIVERS_FOLDER /recurse


See this topic for the dsim commands

I hope it help guys... ;)
