Bypassing the New Hardware Wizard.....
Posted by John Morley on October 26th, 2005


Hi All,

Not sure if this is the right forum or not, but here goes. I want to
bypass the New Hardware Wizard the first time I plug in a USB device for
which the drivers have already been copied to the machine. Isn't there a
way to bypass the New Hardware Wizard rather than forcing the user to
click "No, don't search the internet", and "Install the best driver"
when the hardware is first run??

Thanks!!

John

There should be an option under the new found wizard to stop asking you to
update the USB's driver at the next windows startup or you could simply
disable the usb device in device manager so it wont try to install a device
driver whenever you start windows.

GLuck!
