Install device driver inf via command line
I am working to deploy smart cards to our environment and the driver provided from the manufacturer is 3 files, a CAT,DLL,and INF. If I right click the INF and select install it works. I need to package this for SCCM so I tried to install via command line but I get installation failed every time. Below is the INF

Answer
I was in the same situation and in my case, dpinst returned code 0x100 "No matching devices found".
I finally found the solution, using the following command line:
RUNDLL32.EXE SETUPAPI.DLL,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 .\hidcrdmx.inf
The C200 is now fully recognized by Windows.
