How to Import a Windows Driver Described by a Txtsetup.oem File into Configuration Manager

You can import a Windows driver that is described by a Txtsetup.oem file, in Configuration Manager, by using the CreateFromOEM Method in Class SMS_Driver. Configuration Manager can automatically create definitions for most drivers from just an .inf file. However, when installing mass-storage drivers on pre-Windows Vista operating systems, Configuration Manager also must have some information that is contained in the Txtsetup.oem file. To facilitate this, CreateFromOEM creates SMS_Driver Server WMI Class objects for each .inf file that is referenced in the Txtsetup.oem file. You then have the opportunity to customize the driver properties before saving them.
