Where's the best place to extract drivers to?

Don't put drivers yourself in that System32/drivers path or on C drive directly.

In registry you can put paths to drivers (to .inf files) in following key:

$HKLM & "\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion", "DevicePath"

But remember that you need to enter every path that has .inf into there for it to work (remember to use semicolon every new path) when devices are P&P detected.

You can take a look at my proggy that's in sticky (http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=70209) which will do what you need for you. Just point directory you have drivers in and it will do it for you (well more things than just that) or use pyron's setdevicepath.exe tool if you want to do something else then what my proggy does.
