When you need to Restore your Home PC from the Home Server, you will use the Home PC Recovery CD. This CD has all the files and drivers you need, but from time to time, you may get a message that there are no ethernet or network drivers available or installed. If you get this message, you need to get the drivers for your Home PC LAN device, put them on a spare USB key and then ask the Restore Wizard to Install the drivers. To locate the drivers please follow the information below.
Every time Windows Home Server backs up a home computer, it saves the drivers for the computer in the backup file. If you need to access the drivers for any of your home computers (for example, during a computer restore), you can open a backup for that computer and copy the drivers to a USB flash drive.
Connect to the Windows Home Server Console.
On the Computers & Backup tab, click the computer that you need drivers for.
Click View Backups.
Select the most recent backup, and then click Open.
Select a volume to open (any volume will work), and then click Open. A window opens showing the files and folders in the backup.
Plug in your USB flash drive.
Copy the Windows Home Server Drivers for Restore folder from the open window to your USB flash drive.
Remove the flash drive, and then insert it into the computer that is being restored.
Now you can use the USB flash drive to install drivers for your computer's hardware when restoring a computer. The drivers you are most likely to need during a computer restore are the network driver and the storage-device driver.
