How to copy drivers from a Windows 7 Pro laptop to use for MDT2012 Out-of-box driver import

I am working with MDT2012 Update and I am deploying images to Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E531 laptops. The Lenovo driver download site has worked fine for all of the drivers I needed except for the wireless LAN adapter. With that driver, they give you a setup.exe file that I can't seem to be able to extract the files from. If I run the setup.exe, it will install the working drivers on the laptop, but I want to import the drivers into the Out-Of-Box section of my MDT2012u1 Workbench.

I can see the file names and locaitons in .\system32 and .\system32\drivers where the actual files are installed if I look at the driver details on the laptop after having run the setup.exe file. 

I tried just copying those files to a disk and importing them into MDT2012u1 but since I lacked an INF file, they didn't import.

Does the INF file get copied to the laptop when the driver is installed? If so, can I just grab the driver files and the INF, put them in a folder and then be able to import them into MDT2012u1?

Any other ideas?

Thanks,
