Microsoft 365 Certified Endpoint Administrator (MD-102) Practice Test

To specify device drivers during a Windows 10 deployment using Microsoft Configuration Manager, what should you do?

1. Manually install drivers after OS installation.

2. Create a bootable USB drive with drivers.

3. Create a driver package and specify it in the task sequence.

4. None of the above.

The correct answer is: Create a driver package and specify it in the task sequence.

Creating a driver package and specifying it in the task sequence is the correct approach when deploying Windows 10 using Microsoft Configuration Manager. This method allows administrators to streamline the installation process by incorporating necessary drivers for specific hardware directly into the deployment workflow. By using a driver package, you ensure that all required drivers are available during the installation phase, which enhances compatibility and helps avoid potential issues that may arise if drivers are missing or need to be installed post-deployment. Additionally, maintaining and managing driver packages within Configuration Manager facilitates easier updates and organization of drivers as new versions become available or as new hardware is introduced into the environment. This approach is generally more efficient compared to manually installing drivers after the operating system installation, which can be time-consuming and may lead to an inconsistent configuration across multiple devices. Creating a bootable USB drive with drivers also lacks the automation and integration that Configuration Manager provides, thereby not leveraging the full capabilities of the deployment tools available.
