voidwalker Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Whenever i plug in any device, be it a USB keyboard, or any USB device in general, how come my winlite asks me for a driver instead of automatically installing the driver like normal XP? It does not remember the drivers installed, especially if i change the usb port What could be causing this behaviour and how do i fix it, it is very annoyingi attached nlite.inf and the settings use with driverpacks baseLAST_SESSION.INIdp.ini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hulkviper Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Have you maybe disabled Plug and Play service? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DL. Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 I'm quite sure that happens on a standard (not nLited) install too with some devices.USB flash drives should not do that, but mice and keyboards (or any device for which you have installed drivers) do.It is annoying but that's the way it works, you'll just have to keep the devices in the same port. There may be some workaround but I don't know, haven't bothered looking for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voidwalker Posted March 11, 2007 Author Share Posted March 11, 2007 (edited) nope, plug and play service is onactually i myself only have the problem when i change the port of my usb mouse, but a friend of mine reported that on his pc it always happens, no matter what ports are used (he uses my nlite xp disc), and says this was not the behaviour on unmodified xpso i would appreciate a bit more info on this Edited March 11, 2007 by voidwalker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bledd Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 you have to rebuild the whole thing again from a clean disc, you can just un-remove the cat files, you have to do all the nlite steps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
