XP can't find any standard drivers unless I point it to Inf folder

C

CJSnet

Hi, as above really. Any ideas?

E.g. when I plug in a standard device which XP has a standard driver for, it
cannot find the driver during automatic install. But if I show hidden files
then point it to manually seach c:/windows/inf then it finds it no problem.
