Re: Driver search fails everytime - and have to set the search manually (each time) to System32.. help...

Hello all...

This exactly is the problem that I have been experiencing ever since I
installed vista rtm..(no prob in rc1)

The automatic driver installation thing seems to be working fine for
quite few days...but after some time...it doesnt do auto installation
of other hardwares like different flash drives...

I have been screaming for this for quite some time in other
forums...but noone else replied...this is the first time that some
people are reporting of this error..

Dont know what the hell is going on with this error...

but now really happy to know that i am not alone...and collectively
can solve this problem(hopefully)

If any solution known...please share it here..

Thanks

Regards.
