Whether it has all the drivers you need, I don't know,. In my view, that's usually a mistake. With a modicum of care, it should never be necessary to reinstall Windows any version. I've run Windows 2. I never reinstalled any of them with a single exception--a problem that I worked on for weeks unsuccessfully , and I have never had anything more than an occasional minor problem.
It's my belief that this mistaken notion stems from the technical support people at many of the larger OEMs. Their solution to almost any problem they don't quickly know the answer to is "reformat and reinstall.
It gets you off the phone quickly, it almost always works, and it doesn't require them to do any real troubleshooting a skill that most of them obviously don't possess in any great degree. But it leaves you with all the work and all the problems.

Same problems as if left unsigned. This is what Microsoft wants you to think. Supply this cross certificate not the same as your CA's self-signed certificate, or their intermediary certificate.
Of course, since this isn't a kernel-level code certificate, you MUST use only. Apparently, there's some loophole that allows self-signed certificates to sign. For a suite that does this for every driver INF package it makes, see libwdi, and how their self-signed certificates on cat files allow installation on Windows 8.
