It seems that the device enumaration precedes your driver. I would recommend to find appropriate development forum here http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/categories Regards Milos

hello all, On our machines we have Windows 7 64 bit. Currently we have developed a custom keyboard driver. This driver replaces the normal "HID Keyboard Device" that loads when Windows 7 loads. As part of saving our machine image we run sysprep on our machines and then save it as a wim file using imagex. The problem is when I reload the wim using imagex /apply , the original HID keyboard Device loads back and our custom driver is not installed. Is there a way to stop sysprep from doing this, or to make my keyboard driver the higher priority driver? Its weird because even when I simply uninstall the "HID Keyboard Device" through device manager, the drivers still come back after rebooting the machine. Seems like i should be able to at least stop windows from reinstalling the driver after I have uninstalled it
