percsas3,sys driver not signed for Windows 2008 R2 deployments
Hi,
I am deploying Womdpws2008 R2 SP1 to some PowerEdge R630's that use the percsas3.sys driver. I am using MDT 2013 to automate the operating system deployment of Windows 2008 R2 SP1. We have the latest driver pack imported. Windows Boot Manager fails during the driver injection phase saying that Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the percsas3.sys driver.
Has this been reported as a bug? Is Dell addressing this? If so, is there an ETA for an updated driver?
Cheers,
Jeremy

Jeremyts,
Which specific controller do you have installed. From the driver I would think the H310 or one like that. If so then the proper driver file needed is likely going to be found here.
Let me know the specifics of the hardware, or if that driver file turns out to work for you.
Let me know..

Thanks Chris. Yes, that's the exact driver we've tried, which is part of the driver pack too.
Using the sigcheck tool I can see that it's signed, but Windows cannot verify this during the boot process.
My only solution is to turn off the check for driver signing in Windows Boot Manager using bcdedit:
bcdedit -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON
But to me this is a hack. I've not had to do this for other Dell hardware to date, so wonder why this driver is causing problems.
Cheers,
Jeremy

Jeremy,
Let me look into this for you. When you stated you had the latest OS pack, was this the one you were using, or was it this one?

Hi,
I know this is old topic, but did you guys find the solution?
I have the same thing with my R630 while deploying 2008 R2 via PXE boot.
The driver, that I injected into the winpe image is from the latest one
http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/04/product-support/product/poweredge-r630/drivers
And I'm still getting same error. if I remove PercSas3 driver, my installation cannot load PERC H330 Mini/Adapter RAID.
I already spent two weeks in troubleshooting, so any help would be appreciated,
cheers
Alex
