DS 7.5 - HP Elite 8300 SFF and HP Elite 8200 SFF having issues booting into WinPe4.0

If you are experiencing problems booting into WinPE 4.0 it may be because you are missing some NIC or Storage driver.

(For troubleshooting purposes also try to change the BIOS options from AHCI to IDE)

HP provides a sets of drivers specifically designed to work with WinPe 4.0

HP Elite 8300 SFF and HP 8200 SFF as now(December 2014) share the same package, named sp64529. This includes NIC and Storage drivers for both x86 and x64

the result of the drivers injection for x86 should be as image below:

If you are having trouble injecting the NIC drivers, clean the folders from the .exe file, as from article below:
