Hi.
It seems that my ThinkCentre has forgotten who he is.
I have a ThinkCentre M72e (3267-BZ5). I deployed Win7 ENT x64 and tried to install driver packages with conditions. I have googled quite a bit and most sites seem to say the same. "Lenovo has a little bit different way of storing model type, it can be found in Win32_ComputerSystemProduct.Version...
But those conditions failed, none were matched. After I got the target computer up and running, I checked and the computer has the following property values in Win32_ComputerSystemProduct:
Win32_ComputerSystemProduct.IdentifyingNumber="pb12xwn" Win32_ComputerSystemProduct.Name="3267-BZ5" Win32_ComputerSystemProduct.Version="Lenovo Computer"
All other properties in Win32_ComputerSystemProduct are NULL
Additonal info:
For now I did not copy all the ThinkCentre drivers into my driver store but only those that were needed because Windows 7 media would not identify those devices. So some chipset drivers may be windows generic and not from the manufacturers.
BUT after the OSD I have
- installed Lenovo software and updated all drivers and rebooted - no change
- updated BIOS also (chose NOT to manually update the model name - no change
and the WMI query still returns the same result as above.
I am a little lost at where to go next, as in my mind this information should be somewhere in the computer hardware?
Cheers.
-MPT-
