Drivers get lost and reinstalled on every restart.
Hi,

Vista has to seem some problem to keep drivers:
- for some mainboard chipset component (VIA Standard PCI to PCI Bridge)
- for my TV Tuner Card (Hauppauge WINTV PVR PCI II)

These drivers get installed successfully, but after a restart they seem to
be lost, and get reinstalled automatically again.

The chipset drivers (VIA Standard PCI to PCI Bridge) are not officially
released/tested for vista (i think Asus/VIA didn't release some for vista
yet). The tv-tuner driver i installed is designed for vista.

However, these drivers work (i can use the TV Tuner card without problems) -
But why are they lost on every startup??

This is quite annoying, because the Media Center TV-Tuner settings get also
lost on every restart.

Does anybody have experience with this kind of problems? Is it possible to
make vista "save" this drivers properly ? Is there a workaround?

thanks for answers of all kind.

regards,
doggy_v345
