installing automatically another device driver

[Defcon31]

hello
when i do "target analizer" it detects my " VIA OHCI 1394 bus controller"
and this component is included in my build.
hower i need another bus controller in my build (for a special firewire
camera).

normaly in XP i can do: system->devices->go to the 1394 bus controller=>
driver update then choose the .inf file (this is the only way it works in
XP!)
when i right click on the inf file and choose install, it doesnt work..

so how do i have to fix that in my xpe build that this goes automatically?
is there eventually a command line for "update a specific driver" so the
driver can be automatically updated in my batch file?

i also tried importing the inf file to a component, but this also wont
work..

any suggestions what i should do now???

thanks in advance !!!

If this driver is not hardware based, then you need to create component that
will populate registry with information's required for XPe to have this
driver preinstalled.

Or you can use devcon.exe utility to install uninstall, start stop any
driver.

Thanks slobodan, but I think this can't help me.
isn't there a command line command to update a specific hardware driver ?
hope someone can help me.
thx

devcon.exe is command line version of device manager.
It is a part of Windows DDK.

I thought that you were looking for something like this?
