1 yes, the drivers are signed. the cat files are there.
2 yes I've tried to install them manually with dpinst with UI and it worked ok but when I apply /q or /s to make the install silent, nothing. Maybe the combinations that I made with the switches are not ok, I don't know exactly - EmanuelPopescu 9 years ago
Following is a script that worked for us. It was assigned via SCCM and would run whether or not the user was logged on. It was deployed to Win7(x64) computers. The driver files were extracted from a vendor supplied .zip file into a folder called drivers that is inside the folder containing this script and dpinst.exe.
We were not using dpinst64.exe perhaps try your install using the 32bit DPInst.exe instead?

It does not work:(. The drivers are signed but it seems that they are not recognized and that is the problem with the silent install. I will try to install the silent with autoit - EmanuelPopescu 9 years ago
