Latitude E6420 - Windows Setup could not install drivers

We have just received our first e6420, and of course I am having imaging issues. I have downloaded from the Driver Feed, the package for x86 and x64.

I am trying to install a scripted installation of Windows 7 with SP1 - x64. I get past the format Hard Drive to the setup screen, and then get the error:

"Windows Setup could not install one or more boot-critical drivers. To install Windows, make sure that the drivers are valid, and restart the installation."

On the Hardware scan, all I can see that is not compatible is SM Bus Controller, and HD Audio.

Anybody run into this issue? I am thinking it is either Hard Drive drivers, or NIC (from my experience it is usually one of the 2). But I can't seem to get this going.

Just saw a post for the 5420...i also do not have the patch. Will give that a try, and see what happens.

Ok. Issue can be ignored. I applied the patch, removed all drivers, downloaded again...everything appears to be ok.
