- Did you use an explicit path to DPInst and the INF file?
- Can you install the driver using the command line you have outside of the MSI?
- Is the driver signed?

You'll find driver packaging easier if you use DifXApp. In essence, it's DPInst wrapped up in a bunch of Custom Actions. There are some outline instructions on how to use it here on AppDeploy - search for 'DifXApp' - but it's a no-brainer, really.
