Installing Windows 2012R2 on a R610
I need Windows 2012R3 for my new camera software
I have a R610 with two 250 gig drives with a Raid 1 H700 RAID adapter
I updated the BIOS
I updated the Raid adapter firmware.
I updated the drivers for OS Deployment
I updated the Lifecycle Controller
I still get media driver for your computer is missing.
Boot Manger is via the BIOS
I have clicked F10 when thru the os deployment including creating the raid 1 on my drives.
Where do I go from here?

Hello
2012R2 should contain all of the necessary drivers to install the operating system. Make sure that the SATA mode is set to anything other than RAID. I don't think you can set it to RAID with a hardware controller installed, but check just to make sure. If RAID is enabled on the SATA then that could be the problem.
Any supported hardware, aside from the S100/SATA RAID, should not require additional drivers. If it is asking for additional drivers then it is likely hardware that was not purchased with the system that it wants a driver for.
Thanks

The SATA was set to off.
I reinstalled the SAS 6 adapter ... I had installed a H700 adapter.
Tried installing the OS Windows 2012R2 .. it still was looking for a driver.
Installed Windows 2008R2 .. no problems. but not the OS I need.
Any other suggestions

There is most likely some device attached to the system that it is requesting a driver for. None of our supported hardware should require an additional driver. Disconnect items like your camera. You can follow the no POST troubleshooting guide:
