I'm sorry but I don't understand what you meant by did I complete?
HP Recommended

Are you able to login to Windows desktop?

You have to just install the drivers by running their .exe files after downloading.

Oh no I mean slipstreaming them onto the ISO, using the inf files rt seven lite needs them for it. Last time I did something like this I just got the ISO and burnt it install it and it failed because none of the drivers was on the disc so it wouldn't boot into windows or anything. All I'm doing is doing a ISO removing some windows features to make it faster and slipstreaming/installing the graphics, wifi etc drivers that work with my system

This is the only thing you need to slipstream:

Rest you can install later on.
