I am trying to write a device install program to get around the problem of xp sp1 installing a driver that i do not wish to use. The ftdi usb-serial device has an approved driver in sp1 that is installed when the device is plugged in. In order to install the device you must cancel the driver request from windows, go to device manager, and manually update the driver xp installed. I have played with SetupCopyOEMInf(), UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices() and calling "rundll32 SETUPAPI.DLL,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 c:\temp\drivers\ftd2xx.inf" with no real success. Is there any way to automate the manual install process? Cheers, Dave
