windows vista premium does not automatically install usb devices

[Guest]

I've configured my laptop to run bluetooth but now it won't automatically
install usb devices. After not finding them I search the Driverstore folder
and they are there but not in the System32 folder. If I plug the devices
into a different port it runs through the whole procedure again and I have to
configure search Driverstore.

I uninstall the usb items in Device manager and then had to run through this
procedure with every device i.e tell it to search the Driverstore.

Any solutions?? other than restore the whole computer.

Have you created a restore point before you configured Bluetooth? You can go
back there and fix it..

You're welcome!
Sorry you can't solve it

Doesn't Vista create a restore point every day? Couldn't you use that?

I think it does when you check for updates.

Even in my case problems extends to all hardware and I'm always forced to do
a manual search in the windows directory even for installing the generic
volume shadow copy sistem drivers (volume shadow copies appears in the device
manager if you choose view hidden devices).
However I was able to somehow solve the problem following the instructions
on another thread in this forum that I can't report because the search
function isn't working right now.
I will report what I have done hoping that it may solve the problem on your
system also.
- Browse to C:\Windows\inf and find the file INFCACHE.1
- You need to move or delete this file but you can't until you don't give
full control
to Administator user.
- To do what stated above right click on INFCACHE.1 the select Properties
and then
security.
- Now click edit then add and in the box that appear manually type
Administrators
if you want you can click the check names button to be sure you have
entered it
correctly.
- At least give Administrators full control over this file and finally move
INFCACHE.1
in a location of your choice.
- Reboot and to test everything went well go to device manager and try to
uninstall and then autodetect a device of your choice. The device should be
correctly auto-detected now.
