"Installing Device Driver" error message

I accidentally ran a device driver install for Windows Mobile device.

Now, it runs on every start up, and of course fails, because I do not have the device.

How do I get this to stop running every time I start up?

Dumb mistake on my part.

Anyway, any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks for the response.

Went to device manager and uninstalled the device.

Will restart and see if it stops it from running, it should.

Re: "Installing Device Driver" error message

after you uninstall the the devise, try to speed your boot time.

Startup Programs - Enable or Disable

You can use this to disable all the prorams that you want to disable during startup to speedup you boot. under startup > uncheck the program that you do not want to run during startup. hope this will help you.
