EDRubright, This post may be dead, but you've just helped me out. More info: The registry value to set to disable the hardware wizard UI mentioned in the article http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/938596 is: Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceInstall\Settings Value: SuppressNewHWUI Data: 1 (REG_DWORD) On a Windows XP SP3 computer the hotfix mentioned in the link is not required, the registry setting will work. Setting the value works immediately in a from-now-on capacity and does not need a restart. The problem is that the wizard may have already started before the setting is set in your script. In this case, we just kill the RunDll32.exe process that is holding the wizard running. Then no more wizards run and the driver can be installed. Don't forget to revert the setting after installing the drivers. Hope this helps. Daz.
