Windows 7 - unsigned drivers - how does win7 handle it?

-

hello,
i transfered old gpo preferences 2k3 to new windows 7/2k8 domain manually. 1 point isn´t still in server2008 "devices: unsigned driver behavior".

now question: how win7 handle unsigned drivers. thought  x64 needs signed drivers only!? not x86... can centralized install unsigned drivers without problems on win 7 x86 machines?
