Is it somehow possible to disable the automatic installation of WinXP drivers when I plug in new hardware into the PC, because when I plug in the hardware, WinXP installs wrong drivers for it, and I can’t install the real drivers, that I have.
The problem is that, when I reboot Windows or when I uninstall the drivers, automaticlly the Windows installs the drivers. I can’t choose where to install from.

I have had format my pc for many reasons since know but since the last week i have been facing a tottally knew problem for me the BSOD.It appears when enough regularly to make me angry.It appears when ever i am using almost any program, but i have mentioned that it happens when i am online.
Most things i’ve read about BSOD says to be a conflict with drivers or video cards generally hardware.But I have not change any hardware since i bought the pc at all.I am using Windows xp professional edition service pack 2.Any program tha i have installed, know tha i have the BSOD appears not responsible about the BSOD becayse before some formatts i have made, idid not have any problems with any of the software i am using right konw.The only thing software i am suspicious for the BSOD is the Vista transformation pack 6.0 that i have applied to my system since the last format.I am sure it is not a virus or a malware cause i am having the best antivirus,spyware but a poor firewall the ashampoo
