Network Driver problem WinPE 2.0 (WDS) and HP D530 (Broadcom NetXtreme)

Hi all, Just hoping someone here can help me with this problem (which should be straight forward but aint).

Overview:
Trying to boot into a WDS build image accross the network, The image is a straight forward WinPE 2.0.
I can not get a single driver to load and work for a HP Desktop model (D530) which uses a Broadcom NetXtreme Nic.

Details:
There seems no support for this nic in PE 2.0 by default (or at least if there is its not working for me), Initially thought shoudl be straight forward.

Downloaded the following drivers and integrated them to the image (using imagex and peimg) none of them seemed to work:
Drivers tested:
HP vista - failed
HP Win XP - failed
HP PE from scripting toolset - failed
Broadcom Vista - failed
Broadcom xp - failed
Broadcom Monolithic - failed

With the failures I have attempted loading each one manually via booting to a WinPE image, pressing Shift +10 to get the cmd up, drvload the driver, wpeutil InitializeNetwork.

Results below:

As you can see it seemed to be trying to use the default ms driver still.

To further diagnostics I removed this driver from the image, then retested again loading the dirver manually with drvload etc, below are the results

OK so it seems that using default driver it fails to load the driver fully/sucessfully, using downloaded drivers none seem to be detected or seens as usable.

Would like to hear from anyone who has ideas, expierence or solution for this.
