Windows Vista Driver Problem

R

Richard Heslop

Hope someone can help me with this problem i have with windows vista basic.
for some reason windows vista no longer will install devices automatically,
eg a usb flash drive which vista have drivers for it pre installed or any
simple usb device that windows will have drivers pre installed. i have to
tell windows to search the windows/system32 folder manually then it will
install the 1 driver, then i must repeat this upto 3 times for say a usb
flash disk as it will install usb mass storage then disk drive and so on.

How can i make windows do this automatically again??

Thanks in advance

Your C:\windows\inf\INFCACHE.1 is corrupted and should be deleted.
You will need to edit its file permissions to give Full Control to
the Users group before you will be allowed to delete it.
