Installing drivers from installer

Hi all,

I have a usb device for which the drivers must be installed through a
normal
installer. Initially tried by copying the required inf and related files
to
system folder and restarting the machine and it worked ,but i would like
to
do the same thing without restarting. How do i go about doing it ?
Please help…

Thanks in Advance

Hi, Srinidhi Rao S

SetupCopyOEMInf can help you install a driver without re-start the computer. But I’ve found by this way, a device can not be installed twice. Just the firt one can be installed without asking for the .sys . The later devices can not find the .sys file.
I’m still finding a way to solve it.
