    Yep, you need to package the drivers into the WIM file, or attach a seperate USB device with the drivers and load them from there.

I'm guessing it was just that my USB SRD was getting overwritten and not customized when I was working with it earlier. I had ignored the error message, since it wasn't very clear to me from the documentation and online help that USB SRDs can't actually be customized--which is a bit unfortunate. Thanks for your time, though!

I'll go ahead and mark a previous answer as a solution since manually loading drivers for multiple computers seems like the only solution (and I'm not inclined to spend time with support on what probably was user error).
