I need to remotely upgrade to DC's from Windows2000 to Windows2003. Servers
have Broadcom Gigabit NIC adapter, which driver is not included in Win2003
installation files. I've tested upgrade via TerminalService connection and
it's ok except NIC drivers does not get upgraded. And therefore after
installation there is no network connection to server... :(

Can I add somehow BroadCom NIC drivers to Windows2003 /i386 directory so,
that upgrade would pick them up?
I don't want to use RIS or unattended installation, but only to add one
drivers to /i386 so that upgrade would pick those.

Cheers
