Auto Loading of Drivers

I have an HP iPaq which I know now does not work with VISTA HPE. The first
time I plugged it in the system tried to find and load drivers, but of
course failed. The problems is that now every time I restart or login, it
still tries to load the driver, even though the iPaq is not plugged in.

How do I get this to stop??

Open Device Manager, look for iPaq and uninstall it if present.

Re: Auto Loading of Drivers

Well that was an easy fix. Now I feel stupid! Never thought that it was
loaded because the driver never loaded. Oh well. Thanks!!
