Determining the Folder Name

DPInst is looking for a specific folder name when it's called to install drivers for your model. If it doesn't see this name it will not install anything. To determine what this name should be:

  1. On the model of computer you'd like to add, copy Detect_Manuf_Model.exe from \\titan\ldeskpackages$\dirvers to the desktop.
  2. Open up a command prompt, navigate to the file's location and then execute the file
  3. The name listed next to model is what the folder should be called
  4. For Lenovos, the model will display as "XXXXXyyyyy Friendly Name" (eg "031942U ThinkPad Edge") Please only use the Friendly name for the folder name ("ThinkPad Edge")
