Quick query.
I'm doing an inplace upgrade of a Win2k Server, I want to then dump ALL PnP drivers, take an image and deploy the image on a completely different server.
The two servers are both Intel and both use the same HAL but obviously run different mobo drivers etc etc.
Will simply deleting the contents of the system32\drivers directory force the machine to find and re-install the hardware on boot via PnP?
If not is there another way?
I know it's messy but there is some specialist software on the system that is 5 years old that we can't get re-installed but the hardware desperately needs upgrading.
Hope someone can shed some light.
Thanks in advance.
