WinTV new hardware found
I am packaging WinTV and it requires USB driver installation. I am using DIFx and the driver installation is fine but the issue is that if the USB is not plugged while installing the MSI, MSI installs everything fine but when next time the USB is plugged it pops up with New Hardware Found wizard. If one simply clicks next it configures drivers properly but for normal users it asks for Admin credintials.
Is there any way to isntall the drivers even when USB is not plugged
Thanks

search for problems with signed and unsigned drivers, they were recently mentioned in the previously post.

Thanks for your inputs.

Try set the Flags column in the MsiDriverPackages to 7.
- Bit 1: By default, DIFxApp does not install a Plug and Play (PnP) function driver on a device if the driver that is currently installed on a device is a better match for the device than the new driver. This flag configures DIFxApp to force the installation of a new PnP function driver on a device, even if the driver that is currently installed on a device is a better match than the new driver.
- Bit 2: By default, during the installation of a PnP function driver, if a device that matches the driver is not connected to the computer, DIFxApp prompts the user to connect the device to the computer. This flag configures DIFxApp so that it does not display this prompt.
- Bit 4: By default, DIFxApp adds an Add Or Remove Programs entry that represents the driver package that this component represents. This flag configures DIFxApp so that it does not create an Add Or Remove Programs entry for the component. DIFxApp does not support this feature on Microsoft Windows Vista.

MSI driverPackage table has the entry of component having INI,Cat,SYS file and the value is 10.
DIFx is working fine as I have checked in the INF folder and INF file is getting installed there as OEMxx.inf\pnf whr xx is the latest number.

I don't know how DIFx handles drivers requiring the hardware to be connected though.

I have tried all posible ways to set the USB drivers for a osprey 50 without the device being connected., but i still get the prompt. even if the usb port is changed you get the prompt.
