Recently, I performed the installation of the ISO that I modify, in a nootbook game, asus strix g15, where it did not do automatic recognition and installation of the wifi driver, in another situation with notobok nitro v15, the correct and automatic installation of the wifi occurred

in view of this, I decided to try to add a list of driver compatibility to my iso, I believe it would be the .sys files, where I wanted to leave only the essential , usb, network, wifi, and something else

is there any topic I haven't seen, that has some list of downloadable hardware, a more varied pack with multiple drivers from different brands?
 
Windows includes a set of default drivers, which MS believes will support a majority of the PC's when the release is made.
This list will never be perfect and won't support really old or the latest PC's. It's expected that Windows Update will try to find new drivers for you.

Dell and HP both have driver packs for different model lines, but most other vendors don't. Instead they force you to find the individual drivers by model. Most drivers are provided by Intel, AMD, NVIDIA or Realtek; and PC companies repack them into fancy installers.

I've seen some people try to make driver packs, but they lose interest because it's too much work trying to keep up with all the latest driver changes. Some ISO projects will offer driver packs, but your results may vary.
 
i understand, in this way, before any installation on a new machine, I will pay attention to download the network driver, just for security, if it is not recognized

in my preset, because it is a cleaner preset aimed at games reducing the system load, I disable the update, removing the component in the paid version, and disabling the system settings as well
 
You can integrate extra drivers to any image without causing a performance issue. Windows will only load drivers when it detects a matching HW ID, and unused drivers only take up extra disk space. The problem comes when people use large driver packs and dump too many driver files into an image.

If you know the target PC's, it's not a real problem to add their specific drivers ahead of time. It's a common practice.
