Or did I miss something? A pretty neat way of "authorizing" drivers - publishing them in AD, although a bit tideous for smaller companies I guess.

masken masken MM club member Registered: 2000-11-27 Posts: 1222 Loc: Gothenburg, Sweden	yeah, with publishing you can, but not many drivers come in MSI format unfortunately... since MS only recommends the manufacturers WDM, and no specific packaging. _________________________ The tart is out there
